Default The RX7 was not that great off the line; low torque at low RPMs
The 1st Gen (1979-1985?) RX7 has a 100hp engine. The 2nd Gen (1986-1991?) had about 158, IIRC. The 3rd Gen (1992-1997?) had over 200 hp. Turbo models of the above had 30-50 more hp.

None of the RX7s were really fast off the line.
