Hey all, just a reminder...cookout is still on for this saturday. I hope to start cooking around 12ish but who knows if it may go later. Bring your food, and I'll grill it for ya. Same with alcohol if you're drinking. It's at Dave's (niburu) and my place @ 1227 Blue Jay Ln right by regency mall in richmond. 23229 if you need a zipcode. Look forward to seeing some of you guys out there.

Does anyone have any advice on where to rent a truck and car hauler, to transport my RX-7 from Richmond to Frederick, MD?

I'm trying to get it tuned next week and would appreciate any info.

Thanks guys!

try the Penske rental place out in Manakin, they usually have plenty of trucks and trailers, and they are in WAY better shape than anything you'll see from U-haul

You should not have put assembly grease around the rotor housing where the water seals seat.

Hey Patrick- Did you ever snap any pics of the intake and exhaust ports? I am curious to see the results of that template I loaned you.

DarkAngelKamui 12-22-05 09:30 AM

There's no classes you have to take first? If not, that's pretty damn awesome...,

:)

getfast 12-22-05 09:34 AM

There will be a thorough drivers meeting and novice classroom session on the morning of the VIR event. After that... it's just you, and the track, and the cones. ;-)

Jon

getfast 12-22-05 09:35 AM

Oh, also... you'll get to walk the course that morning like at any other autocross. ;-)
