Yep. Be my third year in a row. I don't do the burn-out corners, but will row thru the gears on a full boost runs if there's room. Not many imports though.

Unfortunately, I don't think the RX-7 guys are very organized in the area. Sick Auto and 7's Corner are going to be the best chance to get a group together.

If this is directed to me, I work on or help friends work on their cars from time to time, but my shop isn't really open to the public. And if this is the Brian I'm thinking of, take anything he says about working on a RX7 with a grain of salt.

You going to Cruise to Woods? It ends up in Ft. Dodge.

I went to a presentation about the track. They very rarely open it. Like years between. It is private owned you can try but i doubt you get in. We were sitting at the banquet with the presenter so we got a little more info than some.
Just passing on info I would love to see it but was busy.

Is this Dave? Great! You should autocross it in SSM class. I always look forward to another competitor to race against. We should link up so I can check out the car.
