Hi folks,
I found the forum today after searching the net for a good RX7 forum.
To be honest I haven’t had an RX7 since ‘96, when I rolled it on turn 7 at Lime Rock. I’m looking to post up some take-off stuff in the marketplace as soon as I get permission.

Here’s an old pic, summer 1996 at Rockingham with the street wheels and tires I used to drive down to the track with.
Its a pleasure to meet you guys, and I’m glad this incredible little car still has a following.

Welcome! Seems crazy to think of ownership from that long ago. Thanks for sharing the picture.

Welcome to forum

Welcome to the forum! Something tells me that it won't be long before you're back in an RX-7!!

Thanks 🙏
If only they still made them, they were truly incredible cars. If I could only find a garage queen R2. But unfortunately that is highly unlikely. These cars were built for enthusiasts, driven hard and put away wet.
Looking back, I can still remember missing a gear at turn 4 or 5 of the “Bridge”. Instead of shifting up, I accidentally downshifted while simultaneously flooring it. Before I could correct my mistake, I saw the tach go completely off the scale…. And what happened? Nothing! I quickly put it in the right gear, floored it, and she leaped like cat. It truly was an incredible car, lightweight, nimble, perfectly balanced, everything going for it.
