Saturday's autocross if anyone's interested... I wasn't a fan of the course, it had a lot of tight elements, but it was still fun.
My G meters are flipped for some reason, looks like I'll have to re-calibrate them. but I did hit 1.5G which is cool :-)

Undaunted, I Googled "Australian GymKhanna" and found it is some Equestrian events in Australia.
Also learned Hooning IS a crime in Australia with anti-hooning ads and all like the war against drugs in the US.
So, you can horse around on a horse, but don't horse around in a car.
Well, Hillclimbs ARE fun.

I Googled "Australian Autocross" and found out it is some CAMS dirt rally short stages in Australia.

I added rear camber to the back of the car (back up to a stock link on one side and a ronin "stage 1" on the other. It's at about ~1.8-1.9* in the back.
I took a bolt out of my camber plates to get the last little bit out of them that the bolt was blocking... it's up to -3.2* now. I might have to slot my struts to get a bit more up front.
camber plates slider was hitting the bolt head:
no more bolt head:
The car liked the camber... so that's good.
Nice photo of my car a fellow rx7 owner took (on a film camera no less, the actual photo looks much nicer, my scanner needs work...)
Video of yesterday's event. It was pretty quick... the rx7 needs more power. My main competitor showed up with new winter modifications (fresh 335 tires on all 4 corners of his 600 whp STI) and was much faster. I have to catch up to do :P I think it's finally time to start tuning E85.

I knew these needed some work, but Jeezzzz that's a lot I hope it'll feel very nice once installed and hopefully help fix some of your turn in as well.
