The power to weight is almost identical at 6.8 lbs/RWHP - this is why they are evenly matched at lower speeds. BTW, the RX-7 would also pull a a Cobra from a dig due to better traction (they don't sit & spin thier tires due to too much low end torque). The RX-7 also pulls away harder as speed increases due to 1) a wider powerband (it does not redline until 8,000 rpm) & 2) a significantly lower drag coefficient (Cd) than the Stang. TT RX-7s also pick up ~ 20 rwhp on a roll - very fast indeed.

[MadDogMahonie]

you did shift the RX7 early but overall that was a good race, mustang sounds means...

I'm a Mazda fan but the Mustang sounds so cool, blower whine is awesome, good run.

rx7's don't need as much whp as other cars since they are so light :P

Good run though

@jonescrx

The 787b wasn't banned. Rule changes ended group c which stopped all cars from that era. It also ran for a number of seasons and it only ever won one race. It was not dominant and only won as the faster cars failed. Still a win though.

The 26b the ran in Imsa in the rx792p where it was consistently out classed
