More RX7s Needed!

Where are all those Nocal RX7 owners? They all live so close to the track. It would be fun to have a lot of RX7s at this event. Here is one more pic of me taking turn #3 and the World Challenge racecar that was there.

I already signed up and paid! My name is Matt K. on the list. I may be putting a couple of guys up at my place the night before if you are interested in a small get-together. I'm 20 miles from the Track.

That's good to hear that you are already signed up. I will let you know about the night before. Not sure if I am staying in Willows or at my parent's ranch in Oroville the night before.

It's not posted on the website, what time do these usually start? The HP School in Feb. started @ 8:00 a.m. and went till 4:00, and included food. Not that it is all important, just interested.

FWIW, you are ten feet too far to the left... You should get all the way to the inside of two all the way around, and your speed (~80-95mph) in two should carry you all the way to the right. You then want to stay over there as long as you can to set up for four. Have fun, Carl

I can help! I know how to install injectors lol..and have a bit of an idea how to install the standalone..just don't know where all the ****** wires go to. You did that on mine haha.

edit: Do I have to provide insurance stuff if I'm going to be on the track (not driving) Either way I'll go to watch or something..

Doesnt look like my car will be making it to the event. I need to bend a 4 ft long rear brake line and it's proving to be a real PITA. There's still a small chance but it doesnt look good for me. I still may attend though.

Anything I can do to help? Thanks for helping my buddy locate that leak at Buttonwillow! If you need anything let me know.

Thanks for the offer Don but unless you have a rear passenger hardline laying around it's mostly just a matter of getting the bends correct. The rear passenger hardline has some funky bends that were pretty hard to down.

Did your buddy get that leak fixed?

I will be there. Does anyone know what the schedule will be? I would assume the track opens at 7 and the driver's meeting is at 8?

He's taking it to Fukuda today actually, for him to put an end to the leak.

I've got an s4 vert parts car, if you'd like the hardline, you're welcome to it.

I'm sure you can find my number

Here's the link: http://www.ncda.net/flier5.html

Track opens @ 7:30, course opens @ 9:00, which is plenty early - it's been cold up here in the mornings! Stan, is Dave still showing up? Bringing his Fd? Also, are any of you guys one of the track instructors? I need some adult supervision.
