Yes, Rotary Reliability and Racing is a fairly big company, and well known. from weat i have heard they do good work. i went to the races with one of there cars (the tokico third gen) to watch. he wound up winning in his class.
anyways, thanks again guys for coming out. even though it was a short one i still had fun!

p.s. here4 is a picture of one of there cars. ( the one i watched race)

Hey James, it was nice to meet someone so young & enthusiastic about the rotary. Here's the info I was wanting to send you: http://www.mikesdriveway.com/misc/rx-7.rar
^^
The info in the Renesis training module really helped me see how the rotary works.

I will be at the next meet as the solo2 day is on the 11th and not the 10th like i thought.

Aww man!! The solo2 is on sunday, I can't make it. I'm really getting interested in autocross, sounds like alot of fun. I'm thinking of buying a 1st gen for solo2. Since I can't afford anything fancy. Just an autocross beater.....Buy a $500 car, gut it, and slap some decent susp. on it and its ready to go. Or atleast it sounds that easy. Hmmm. maybe I can get a decent running 1st gen for my non running 2nd gen.,.. I don't know What do you guys think?

I rode in a well-prepped 1st gen, and it made me consider trading for a 1st gen. The car had tokico shocks, springs, and 15" wheels with Falken Azenis tires. Engine was bone stock except for an upgraded ignition from an FC. It handled like a dream, and accelerated plenty fast for autocrossing.
