I used to read SCC a lot. They did a lot of wonderful (non-rice) things to their cars, which I like. It seems like now they go for a lot of aesthetic modifications to their project cars, and give attention to some pretty nice looking, but underpowered cars. Have they gone soft? Have they lost their desire to print info on real sports cars, not just wanna-be's?

Now that mag is a joke to me. I HATE ricers. Only Japanese sports car that SHOULD be is the Supra, 300ZX, and RX7.

Supra, 300ZX, RX-7? That's it? No NSX? No Integra Type R, Skyline, 280Z, S2000, MR-2 turbo, WRX, or Tommy Kaira ZZ?

I think you got your ass screwed on backwards big guy. First of all the Supra is not a 300zx wanna be. The 300zx cant even compare to a Supra. Lets not get our panties in a bunch so dont start attacking one of the coolest cars to come out of Japan.

Hey paul. I think you need to look the term sports car up in the dictionary:

sports car
n.
An automobile equipped for racing, especially an aerodynamically shaped vehicle having a low center of gravity and steering and suspension designed for precise control at high speeds.



That means, I could get a metro. Fix it all up nice, and technically, it would be a sports car.

And in Germany they also race Transport trucks (Boesinger is doing pretty good, eh ) . It doesnt mean anything.

thats it..............

if you have RX-7s you have to put the Honda NSX, Skylines, Silvias and other power cars from japan.......

the ITR is very nice, if you look at races that car can keep up w. bimeers and audies and still beat em...
