The video is finally visible. Good job Va. Though for 80 megs, I was hoping for a longer clip, it was only like 40 seconds.

I kind of like the existing club logo. I am very old school about logos. I severely dislike the modern trend of making logos a "swish" or a brushstroke or something simple and stupid. I like meaningfulness in logos and I really like the meaning in ours. But you are making them, so the final choice is yours. Just give us an idea of what you expect it to lok like and judge the interest. I know I would probably get one as long as the cost ws not out of line.

In the very near future I am in need of some 79-80 RX7 parts. Just about any interior part might be needed, and I need some other odds and ends like the rear license plate lights and mounts. I am not sure what else, but if any of you have any of these let me know. If anyone has a 79-80 parts car or knows of one just touch base with me.... Thanks.

Sport???? I haven't had much exhaust work done, but I would think most muffler shops would be able to install a simple downpipe. Or are you talking about more than that? Do you already have an exhaust kit? Is it downpipe to to the mufflers? I removed my old exhaust, I can't see why you wouldn't be able to do it yourself if it's a direct fit.

Killa,
There are lots of things to learn about with RX7's that are unique. If you are new to RX7's you should definately read as much of Felix's FAQ as possible. It will make your life with these cars much mroe pleasnt.

Ren,
Do you still have the 2nd gen oil pan on that engine, or do you have the GSLSE oil pan? If you have the 2nd gen, you will have a much happier life with it if you change it. I have an extra. Make me an offer.

I have finally posted some more pictures from the track weekend at Summit Point:

http://www.highrpm.net/photos/thumbnails.php?album=22

Some on the track pics this time. Pics of the Ferrari we were running with. First time I have seen a Ferrari that was well driven at a track event.

Probably. I have found much in the way of tune of my car fiddling with it this week. I have improved the fuel mileage pretty significantly. Runs much better too. I think now I might have gotten several MPH more on the straights at the track event, something I really needed. I need some info on how much we can gain by advancing the timing on a NA 13B. I know there is much to be gained, but I don't want to hurt it either.

My only hold up from going over there right now is I have a slow leak on one of my tires. I think I can get that repaired this weekend though.
