Rotary REVOLUTION

Who's going.

I allready booked the time off. Will not be going in the RX7 unless by chance I get it back down in april and have the new CHRA and FMIC retub done!

So I might have one spot in the "Talon" so if anyone wants to share expense's that would be cool. Or if someone else is going could I hitch a ride?


What: North America's Largest All-Rotary Motorsport Event
When: April 22 - 24, 2005
Where: Indianapolis, IN
Main Event: Drag Racing/Autocross/Road Racing AND MORE!

http://lat-g.com/Revolution/

I will be staying for the whole thing. Tuning session on Sunday is my main interest.

Ian

The mapquest said about 8.5 hours, but didn't look that bad.

Right, so you want to help me drop in a new engine/tranny so that I can at least attempt to keep up with your beast. "Attempt" is a relative term--all else fails, I'll borrow my friend's Cessna

It's going if I install the CHRA and reroute the FMIC.

Bring your FB! Since I know the TII will be down again this year!

I will have to concede you that fact. My car is down a lot.

That also seems to coincide with it leaving the driveway and being pushed hard when its actually running. But you wouldn't know anything about that.

Got Zoop?

What's wrong with the front mount intercooler? if it's rubbing just stick a t-shirt between the pipe/IC and whatever it is rubbing aginast. If u want help I could install your turbocharger housings onto your CHRA for a beer.

Its rubbing. When mazdee's redid my tubing they made it to tight. So when the engine moves it moved the tubing against the hole. Its pretty much worn right throught.

I so far have replaced all of the hose with hump hoses to allow flex but that did not solve it. T-shirt gets worn in like 100kms

Anyhow either your car or mine. We will see.

Yup. Splitting.
