just got back in town from mid ohio, wish i would of known sooner i would of been down.

rolex series is at mid ohio next weekend. anyone interested in going?

 

I would be up for that in a heartbeat, if I wasn't bringing my stuff back from Cleveland.
I think I may be there soon again though. That free day I won last year during the school made it's way back to me so I think I'm going to use it for a lapping day. Just this time I really, really, really don't want to total a TSX......
I'll let you know If I can make it Rob.

 

oh, and one of the other rotary sites I visit, ohiorotaries.com had a really sweet app for Mozilla Firefox users:

LOL.

N/A rotaries are uber reliable. Boosted rotaries... well, what do you think Tony and Rob?

Then again... boosted anything is going to be shorter lived than N/A, at least if you have enough power to have fun.

 

hey my engine has been nothing but a story of reliablility once i got it studded and tuned properly. has been at many track weekends pissing off boingers on the straights and is still running strong

but yes i agree boost can cut engine life down, nothing like voluntarily adding variables to go wrong......

 

Just make sure you never say that where it can hear you.

 

.....good one.

 

i had my fingers crossed while i was saying it so im good

 

I've got an FD tranny, 2 4.10 diffs, driveshaft, and diff mount if anyone needs them

 

man this forum has been dead lately

 

yeah..remember the good ole days when we used to meet all the time and have fun....

 

I'm still patiently waiting for someone to speak up and list a day they want to meet up again. I would say this Saturday or Sunday. I just need directions to where ever since I'm not at all familiar with Fort Wayne.

 

did you make it to Mid-Ohio for the Rolex Series Rob?

 

ya i did make it over, still got the sun burns to prove it


i prob can do something this weekend. i think ill be in town for a change

 

I autocrossed the GRM Challenger on Sunday, this weekend headed to VA to pick up a parts car. I am also madly working on the CMC car.

 

Anybody need a TII driveshaft? I'm slowly cleaning all the parts out from my "big pile of crap I have no use for".

Still have a clutch master/slave w/ braided line, and some other random rotary engine braided lines (no clue what they go to, they don't fit my motor... ).

I saw Tony and his posse (yeah, that's right, you have a posse now) a couple weeks back. I'm sure I'll be rocking the BMW for a few more weeks though (God I miss having actualy horsepower...); I'll have to line up with Evo-guy once it's done, since he's always down. 16 psi + forged motor = zoom zoom.

 

Didn't you originaly put the v8 in your car instead of the rotary for reliability and to save money... with the initial cost to put the setup in and now the cost of rebuilding it. I am missing the part where you save money, or even gain reliability for that matter. HAHAHA

Anyway how does the 5th or 12th of july sound for a meet?

 

Evo-guy is always "down" as in: Down for racing anytime.
His car is always running.

It's our cars that keep having issues.
We drive Rx7s...that's the problem.

 

12th is a no go for me ill be at the track...

 

In that regard I don't think I could have put that better myself, definitely a lose lose situation. Fronting the extra cost and effort to swap an engine -no mater what the make- just for it to malfunction anyway!? later to spend money to build it again, but pay even more for expensive upgraded parts.. I don't understand the logic behind that.

It's not for me to understand.. I'll stick with ceramic apex seals and corner seals, cermet coated housings, some dowel pining, and say 30+ pounds of boost.. should be scary enough.

 

speaking of money and ****..if you guys need replacement parts let me know i can get some stuff cheap. NA clutch master and Slave $50.73 after tax and shipping for the both compared to Autozones 49.99 for just the master.

 

I'm sorry what were you saying??? Icouldn't hear you over the sound of my own ******* awesomeness:





Alrighty you 2 kiddies, just a quick FYI, you are aware that he had a bone stock $200 5.3L truck motor (out of the GM 1500 series trucks), correct? And that he KNEW it was going to eventually blow, correct? And that he had already planned a 347 forged bottom end, correct? And that it was a freak accident that caused it all (cam bearing spun slightly causing the #7/8 rod journal to be deprived of oil which led to the #8 rod bearing spinning 180* and knocking). That happens all the time in normal passenger vehicles.

Give me a call when you're making 1000rwhp on pump gas in your daily driver

 

lol @ dyno queens

 

FYI I have heard all the bs about his setup... I stand behind my previous statement, I Fail To See How He and Obvouisly You have gained from spending all this money and effort stuffing that into a already nearly perfect 7... Get a kit car or something... That huge engine just throws the geometry of a 7 way off. Correct?
And Mr. NeverDieEasy is the rotary that difficult to understand? Cause to be honest I love the LS and LSX type engines and I also Love 7's. This is why I take the effort to understand and embrace the insane possibilities of the rotary engine...

 

Love you to big guy (no homo). DK know's what a wicked awesome driver I am at the strip

How's the Subaru runnin?

Did you take notes from Kenny's burnout
