Anyone going to the next meetup at Julian's on Oct. 16? Wish this guy wouldn't pick places like that.....too many people in Norfolk at Waterside on a saturday at 4PM.

 

well sorry guy's im not going to be able to make it. I'm going to Cali for 6 months of super hornet school, so i wish you guys well and the RX-7 is staying on the west coast, so if anyone wants to see what it looks like its in the aug issue of RX Tuner. maybe we should get toghether some time this week. maybe i will have the car running then.

 

I'll try pics of Jimdog's car again



We had another autocross today at ACU-4 at Little Creek Amphib Base. It was a great event. I finally got to run my car. I think I did pretty well, but I didn't see the official times. The guy that was at our meetup at AJ Gators in Va Beach with the MR2 was there (sorry, I am terrible with names, I can't rememebr his name) and a whole bunch of Miata's, but I was the only RX7. Course was great, but the wind was blowing really hard all day. They had to move the course some early on because the Chesapeak Bay was blowing up on the concrete and crossing the course.

 

the guy with the MR2 is bruce. the car is looking pretty sick by the way.

 

Ok the weather looks dry, and cool. So who is going to the lsat Wild WIcked Wednesday on 9/22 to see VaGambler's last chance to qualify for the finals?

 

Thanks for posting pics Calvin. I wanted to make it to ACU Sun. but figured it was too windy and it would blow the cones over(Besides the fact I had a Railroad Spike sticking out of my Forehead "hungover") I should be @ the next one.Too bad they dont run @ Night I would have smoked those other Emods I was the olny one with headlights LOL

 

The cones didn't get blown over at the autocross, but I am not sure why not. It was blowing really really hard. The last 50-100 feet of concrete was wet from the Bay being blown up there. Before we started they moved the course so it would not be wet, but a little water still got on the course. The bay out there looked really rough. The waves were bigger than you typically see at the oceanfront. the weather report showed wind gusts in the 35-40 mph range before I left to go out there. I assure you that when they start up the hovercraft that quite a few hats will blow out from under them. Everyone was losing their hats.

 

Some pictures were posted from the last event at Little Creek. Those of you that know what the water usually looks like out there, compare to this picture. It might give you some idea of what the wind was like



Anyway for anyone intersted:


I just wanted to let everyone know that might be interested, that there is an
autocross (Solo II) school at the old Pungo Airfield in Virginia Beach on Saturday, October 2nd. It is followed by a regular autocross on Sunday October 3rd. If you are interested in attending either you can let me know, or you can go to the ODR-SCCA web site at:

http://www.odr-scca.org

and click on Events, Solo II (Auto-X), Solo II Pre-Registration, and Solo II Entry List for more information on the event. The entry fees and information is there. If you have any fruther questions you can ask me and I will try to answer. Entry of the event on Saturday is limited and spaces do fill up, so if you are interested, pre-register soon. Pre-registration for the autocross that Sunday also sometimes fills up, but you can usually enter on the day of the event if you must, but it is better to pre-register.

Hope to see you there.

 

how do u take the bolt out of the main pulley (13b)

 

I'm going to try to run my 7 tomorrow at WWW. Hopefully weather holds, I've been told it's supposed to be a nice day. *crosses fingers* I really need to get ahold of Dave to get my carb straight, the 2000-4500 rpm cruise speed gets really annoying, rather quickly.

 

Hey guys I'll be there , its the last race before the winners all show back up on a Sat, and the overall winner is declared . Im still hopefull that I can win the B main . Hope to see everyone there

Hey Turbo , you mentioned that you knew the guy in the MR2 . is this the same guy who made it out to wacky wensday 2 weeks ago . He had a red supercharged MR2???

Thanks in advance

 

na bruce is the one with the MR2 turbo. his car is very fast though. he kept up with rx7wishing's 13 sec FD. I heard the MR2 that goes to wacky wed is pretty fast though to.

 

I know Bruce pretty well too. I used to sell all his MR2 parts to him.

 

Suppose they would let me run my hoosiers at WWW? They sau no slicks... they have tread...barely, but tread.

 

Does anybody know of anyone trying to sell a car hauler, or a tow dolly. I need one by the 27th. for the drive to cali

 

Randy has one , but it need some cleaning up . It also needs ramps . I bought new straps for it but have never put them on . The straps cost over $85.00 just for the straps . I know Randy will sell the dolly , its just a matter of catching up with him????

Va

 

i want a a actual trailor for my car

 

WWW was fun. Wish that 3000GT wasn't there. Kinda crappy he took 1st from Kenny after he already won the A main a few weeks ago. Wish I had the $$ to run mine, but maybe next year. Who's up for the meet at Julians posted at rx7meetup.com?

 

Hey guys had a blast last night ,and thanks to all who made it out . they have decided to add one additional race to the finals next week 09-29-04 ,so it looks like I'll have one more shot at it . Maybe some of the people on this board will make it out . Randy is trying to get one ready for next week ??? Thanks again guys

 

Yeah it was fun. After the race I went over were all the entrants were gathering. I walked over there and ran into several people I had not seen in quite some time. Several recognized me. Talked to Dino, and Brady Woddell. It was fun catching up a little. Congrats to Kenny, ya did pretty good.

 

ill try and make it out hopefully my car will be done in 2 weeks (runnin)

 

Wish I could run, but I can't afford to fix it if that wall got too close. But it was fun.
