something 
 a bit more fun to drive, and an RX7 Turbo, 2nd gen, is always something i've 
 wanted and can actually afford... are they competitive in stock?  The 
 proposed rules puts them in b-stock.  What about street prepared?  Koni and 
 Ground Control makes some very nice suspension components for them and there 
 are many other quality products out for the 13B.  >>

The only combination that MIGHT be competitive in Stock or SP would be the 
normally aspirated in CSP.  You'd have to start with the lightest version and 
put the 160 hp GTUs motor in it.  You'll have to get creative with the rear 
suspension, I'd think, so it doesn't do that "passive rear end steering" 
thing...
