Sorry you guys didn't make it, but we understand. Long's car is trying so hard to start on it's own. Runs awsome when it finally starts. We actually had the idle down to 1100 rpms rock steady. I hate to keep talking on this subject, but what's the plan guys? Is Dave calling the shots for the group now, or are we going to keep the meets as normal? Dave, I opoligize again for letting our egos getting the best of us, but I think we need to think about what's best for the group instead of our personal issues. I can live and let live, can you? Josh and I had our differances in the past. Butted heads a few times, but in the end we let it go. That's all I ask.

On a brighter note, one of the guys that Andre knows at the Kangaroo is looking to get in an RX7. He is selling his SUX. He told me this afternoon if he can find something running for a grand or less, he's game. If anyone knows someone selling one running, let me know and I'll tell him.

It's all good Sam. I think it would be best if we had no "team captain" so to speak. Team effort, team thread, team rotaries.

If it makes you feel better, I haven't driven my car in about 3 weeks now. Sure, thats not as long as you, but you don't have to come home and see your baby in the driveway everyday

Dead battery. Won't hold a charge. I was going to use the one in the crapalier but it is a side post battery. Shoulda snagged the one out of the protege while I was at the parents place.

As far as the thread goes, and who is allowed in, I say anyone is allowed. It was a Rotary event, then we got the turboed explorer, and the 240.[/quote]


thanks for the shout out Turbo Explorer for the win lol (My son has the FC RX7)

Exactly. It doesn't matter what are personal differances are, the fact remains we are rotary owners. Truth be told, we are about as moody as are cars If it hadn't been for Long throwing an engine my way, the FB would still be sitting. I think I did learn a valuable lesson about 3 piece apex seals. New, they might hold 15psi. Used, don't chance them at 14

Hopefully next week I'll start getting the parts together for the bridge. After selling Big Blue I told Beverly I was keeping $500 to put my engine back together. I have the rear and center iron bridged. Just have to cut the bridge in the front iron. I still haven't really decided if I want to stay with 9.4 rotors, or 8.5. It would probably be safer with the 8.5s.

I thought that you had seen it. It's a Buick Grand National TA63 it's good for 625-650 rwhp with the right tune and fuel set up.
