het barry, thanks a ton for the boost guage and new clip. Everything seems to work well. It seems i am running a consistant 9psi and 10psi on a 5th gear pull. So it seems ill need to get some sort of fuel control now. Anyone know where i can get some info on the RTEK stuff? Oh and thanks for the compliments on the paint job.

Jesse

what is the deal with Kernersville? It seems like I've met like 10 people from there in the past 6 months.... and before that I'd never really even heard of the place.

Hey Josh, you must've meant 8:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time, I left about 10:15 and didn't see you. Ray told us that you and Rick had gone down to RSR to dyno and tune your FDs. Rick has a boost leak and you had some spark plug problems? What is going on with y'alls cars? Oh yeah, I almost forgot y'all drive the Fiscally Demanding rotaries. You missed a pretty good Drive-In, it was the night of the FCs. Bobby cameout in his RX8, we had a new FB show up and it brought its owners. Taylor rolled in around 8:00 EDT and he was the only FD to make it tonight.

I have to work, but you should go Jesse even if its by yourself. Maybe I can see who will be running and drop some names for you.

The Rock was was a blast. The oval portion is far more work than you might imagine. The infield road course section is not as tricky as VIR, but still loads of fun. There were 4 RX-7s running 2 in the HPDEs and 2 in the races. Would have been better if there were more drivers...like you guys.

Other cars included: Lotus Elise, Cobra kit cars, Vettes and other big Amercan iron, LOTs of BMWs. You should have seen the 13 year old in the Miata schooling guys with M3s, STis, Cobras.

My FD was flawless. Reliable and fast if not as sexy as some of the other cars.

Don't be so hard on your FC... it's still fun to drive, right? Keep in mind that 100 rwhp in a car as light as yours still puts the car faster than 90% of everything on the road. Plus, you haven't touched your exhaust yet, you haven't really seen the potential of that engine.

If any local guys are intersted, i'm thinking about selling my GXL. She runs strong and has been a great daily driver. Has pretty new tires on it. Only mods are Header and exhaust. The motor has been rebuilt, but i dont know how many miles it has on it. Would like to get $2000...
