Dave Lauzier is the fastest in North America, specifically Quebec. He runs consistent 11s, but I think he has hit the 10s lately. Last I heard he was running around 550whp. Uses a BP motor, internals are from Rod Millen's old 323 race car.<P>Other than that I would say Jeff Abrams car is next. I think he is running low 13s with a supercharged KL.<P>You could always say that Marcos Acosta is the fastest but his isn't really an MX-3.

</STRONG><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>well, its a 20B motor which never came in the RX-7. And its RWD, which is somewhat odd for a MX-3, wouldnt you say? [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img] So this is why they dont really count him. <P>And Dave Lauzier sold his turbo setup a long time ago. Trap speeds were somewhere around 14X....he could never get his traction issues corrected. Oh, and the other thing about Dave's setup was that he daily drove it.
