I am probably going to try to go to the GT Live. Jon Felton is setting up a rallycross as part of that event. It sounds pretty cool. I am also planning on going to the 13 hour race with John U. a month or so later.

Jake,

Here is the link to info about the rallyecross. I'd love to go. If you decide you want to take the offroader RX7 and need a trailer or sumpin... let me know, we might be able to work something out.

BUTTTTTT...... I have just had a "family issue" come up and I can't go to Jake's tomorrow..... I was planning on going, but there is just no way now. I might be able to make it later, so..... Jake, do you still have the cell phone number -7416? If so I will call when I am done and see if you guys are still there, but I currently have no guarantee.

If you work on it some more later I will try to make it up there some other time if I can't tomorrow.

I will be going to to autocross Sunday at Little Creek. Watch for a report and maybe some pictures.

BTW, here are some pictures of the rallyecross site:

Jake, don't worry about the class your car might run it... None of the people I know going are serious about rallycross, they are just going to have fun. They are autocrossers that are picking up an old Sentra or something and playing with it. Send an email to Jon Felton (getfast on autocross.us) and ask him anythign you don't know about the event. He is a pretty cool guy that has some roots in RX7's. In fact I think he is a member her on RX7 club, but he probably doesn't check here often anymore.

cool. i think ill be ok tho. im picking up a pair of 1st gens this weekend that i think have good tires, but well see....were you planning on racing at thar vir thing? or just going to hang out? if you were just going to check things out ill deffinatly take you up on the uses of the trailer. i stewed over it for a bit. it will be a good way to test out how this thing will do. only thing i really "need" to do to it is get rid of the bee hive and put in a real oil cooler.

Looks like I'm going to be late. I have to be "on call" in case my coworker needs me to do some code changes. ProjectR13B, PM me when you get back from school, we might be able to ride together if you want.
