I was also taking the spiders nest out of my car last night. I was also able to get the turbos out and the wastegate off. All I need to do now is.... I don't even want to think about it right now. I can't wait to drive it again.

I put another one on a silver rx-7 in the fan the other day. Anyway, it was parked at Willow Oaks Country Club when I left the note. Just getting the word out about rx-7 club. It's cool that you guys showed up, nice to have you. This section's where we all hang out, and there are other sections with technical posts. Hope you guys stick around. ~brian

Drove a yacht over the weekend...ended up staying the whole weekend!
Driving a sailboat into a slip is like parking a semi going 20 on a sheet of ice...

I did ok at the autoX. I had a 35.04, should be first in my class. It's so frustrating trying to figure out the setup when there is sand all over the ******* place. I couldn't launch above 2,000 without the rear tires spinning up. I liked the course design, except for the fact that it was so short, and sandy.
i say what i want

ditto. my car was all over the place. i couldnt find a happy median, and when i got the tire pressures decent (last run) i got an off course. i couldnt get it to stick at all. understeer and oversteer like crazy. i need autox tires...

That has always been my issue with VMP. You always slide a lot. You'd expect that it to be not so bad on tires because the grip was low, but the opposite is true, it is fairly abrasive as far as autocross sites go.

Calvin, we were at Cloverleaf mall this weekend. It's always sandy there, so it's really easy to under or overdrive the car. You either gotta have it just right, or have 4 wheel drive. I've never had a problem at VMP, then again my last set of tires only lasted 10 months.
Oh yeah, the website is down because we didn't send in domain name dues. They didn't even let us know. Bastards. So I guess if you wanted www.zaxjax.com you could get it until I pay.
