I wonder if I can leave my trailer on Mosport grounds so I don't have to drive it back home.

Thanks wird!

2Fierce, you can pre-register here:
http://www.sigmatimeattack.com/regis...n-information/

There are still 29 spots available, but watch out as we get closer to an event. Usually within the last 2 weeks, racers will pre-register like mad and the spots may quickly become unavailable.

What do you drive 2Fierce?

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Glad to hear that you pulled it together in the end. Definitely an ambitious project for a first timer. Can't WAIT to see (and hear) how JDK's motor will do on the track!!!

This event is quickly turning into a big RX7 meet lol....

Oh, I should also note that it's completely free to come and spectate. Anyone is more than welcome to join in and see some action! Come by and chill, relax, and cheer for our fellow members (and thewird cuz he's sooooo coming)!

LOL, this guy. This is going to kill me. Track day on May 22nd, 23rd, and then again on 27th all at Mosport.

Would switching the date back be a problem?

Back to back racing in 1 weekend? AWWWWWW you poooooor thing~~!!

No problem dude! It's our pleasure! It takes a few minutes to register you again in our timing system, no biggie.

Maybe you should just camp there for the night. Should be fun. What do you think?

Two weeks to go! Found out my car does 16psi pulls when its cold out. YIKES. Rotary stock 16psi=BOOM. I didn't think that a stockish car can hit that much. It actually maxes out the stock boost pressure gauge and feels like it hits fuel cut! I should only be running 8 psi.

Anyhow out must go the turbo to port the wastegate and see if I can get more range on the flapper by grinding the edge a little flat. All this 4 days before the event as I will not be able to start till next week.

Can't wait for the first event! See you guys out there.

Good luck!

I'm almost ready myself, just got my alignment done, engine and clutch are broken in, and will be getting it tuned on Tuesday.

btw, Pat from Altech in Etobicoke, AWESOME for alignments. My car was up on his one machine for almost 2 hours and he did all the work himself, I think they ran through 4 or 5 cars on the second machine while he did mine. As it turns out, getting the caster right and equal on both sides is triiiicky

I set my car up as per howard coleman's recommendations, hope they're good!

Quick Announcement:
Not sure if any more RX-7's plan on coming out on May 22. Our early bird special of $160 closes tonight. Starting from tomorrow, the price will be up to $200!

Hey thewird, so have you made up your mind about 22nd yet?

Yah, I made up my mind. Leaving it how it is (not coming). Too risky as I'm already rushing things.

Yes the weather was great and the event was flawless. Organized and way to kind. Thanks for lunch and the snacks and the bottled water!

JDK is too fast. Owned me. I posted a best of 1.10.9 or something but got progressively slower during the day with a slow time of 1.13.9 or something at the time attack.

Whatever I did to the turbo to cure the overboost of 15psi worked because all I could get out of the turbo was 8.8psi peak with about 6.6psi being the norm.

Can't wait till next time to improve my lap times. Sure is different hitting a track with that timer in the car.... Stared at the dam thing to much. When Jim was in the car I was way more relaxed and probable posted faster lap times

I should have stopped by at lunch or something... Showed up at the end and there were only two rx-7s left. I'll post a couple pictures once I'm done editing.
