look up some stats but i think the TT 300GT vr4 runs like low 14s at best with a good driver or sumthin so if it's not that then it should be no problem. i raced a modded TT stealth stick and it was dead even all the way to 100. u'll need to give more info about the rx7 though. is it TT or not and i'm sure stats on those are everywhere on the internet. the TTs can be very very quick pretty easily so u never know.

A base 3000gt is just a heavy V6 car. Think racing a buick LeSabre or something...

RX7 would be interesting. I know some of them came TT stock, and they are very light cars.

Don't even worry about the 3000 gt that would be a waste of time and effort. the RX-7 on the other hand might be a challenge for you. Depending on the year and if it is a turbo or not. I raced a newer turbo RX-7 on the highway from 60 to about 100 or so and i had him by 3 or 4 car lengths. he kept up better that i thought he would. This was with the hot cam. Looking at your mods it should be a close race if it is a newer turbo. otherwise if it is a stock older model i wouldn't even bother.

I raced a newer rx7 turbo, that had some other mods. He said he spent 7k in mods. I kicked his butt so bad! I just had a lid.
