Hopefully u talkin about takin it to the tracks because we all no street racing is bad. But rx-8s are dumb slow straight line unless u boost it. But it will beat u in the corners. But at the end of the day it depends on the driver

Sounds like a great idea, maybe if you live, you'll lose your car and licence and learn not to do dumb **** the hard way.

P.S. The fact that you're not 18 is apparent, you didn't have to tell us.
