Same question as Eric (PR0K), Are you coming to the BBQ? It's really not going to rain this time and we would very much be honored to have such an RX-7 legend attend. Invite Art (RTS3GEN another RX-7 legend) and any other 7 guys from KC please.

Oh yea, add me to the BBQ list. I'm coming if I can.

Ok, I'll call at 1 if I don't have it done by then. I live about 1 half mile from the high school. On 167th and waverly if you know where that is. If you have nothing to do in the morning and are looking to kill some time, I definitely wouldn't mind having a couple extra hands. I'm gonna get started tonight getting it jacked up and the trans fluid drained and put some penetrating solution on some of the nastier looking bolts. Hopefully it will turn out to be a quick and painless ordeal.

Sorry guys. The May/June time is typically busy for me. My brother's family has most of their birthdays this month (he has 5 kids) so there is a family gathering for one of them tomorrow.

Also, I've had to pull the turbos out of my car:

so it's back on jackstands yet again.

Well, tonight I'm gonna try and get it jacked up and secured to a decent height, drain the transmission, put penetrating solution on the bolts, take off the speedo cable and wires, and see if there is any other light stuff I can do, i really don't want to be pulling and prying on anything without someone around just in case I'll see what I can do tonight though and try to get a real early start tomorrow.

Can't wait to hear and see some pics of the meet. I would have liked to have come but my son's track meet was on the same day. It would be cool to have another meet sometime soon, fall would be good.
