actually your the one who looks stupid. The diagonals stuff was cuz someone said FD and someone thought they meant FR, but the RX7 is not an FR. It is a MFR or mid-front engine. You should get your facts straight before you start flaming people. I would understand if you said you "thought" it was an FR, since in a way it is, but you posted like you knew 110% sure that it was an FR, which it isnt. The engine is mounted just behind the wheels unlike other FR cars that are mounted over the wheels. It gives better weight ratio (thats why the RX7 has such a good one). There are more cars with the MFR layout, like the 350Z. I wouldn't of known what an MFR was till about a month ago, I read it in an SCC <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
