I wont be able to make it until the may event, I have to put all the brake parts on and then double check my alignment and I have no time to do anything until the semester is over!
I wish i could go. I will just run # 85 unless im told not to. Thanks Phil, let me know what they say on the board.
Thanks again,
Spencer V.

Bad news!!! I think my ignition switch/tumbler went out today on my 85 GS what should I do to check as to why when the key is in the start position nothing happens?? I checked all the wires and they are all connected... really puzzled and need this fixed soon!

Check fuses and relays. Check voltage out of the ignition switch and if its there, check voltage at the starter. There's a troubleshooting chart in the engine electrical section that should help you out too.

Thanks fellas.

I'm going to get different wheels in the near future. The rx8 wheels will get cleaned up and repainted and used as a spare/winter set.

I might not make it either. Everything is assembled and the engine runs, but it's not drivable (engine stumbles at tip-in and run like crap). I'm looking into it, but I've got no time either - end of semester crunch. Perhaps May will bring better luck?

Justin, Dominic and I were planning on going this upcoming weekend. Although I'd just be a passenger as my FC is still getting built. What time/day would work for you all?
