Kenny, Who all is going to be racing Wednesday? Let me know if anyone needs a driver :-) ... Ok I don't expect any takers. Johny is comming to meet up with us wednesday night, I am hoping we can get at least a few RX7's out there since he is driving 3 hours to meet up with us.

Sorry Guys, I couldn't go. I worked thurs, fri, sat night and to finish it off, the hot water valve in my downstairs bathroom sprung a leak and totally messed up my floor, basin, mouldings and some sheetrock. Needless to say, I spent quite a few hundreds of dollars to build a new bathroom. New floor, new toilet, new lavatory, new faucets, moldings and either today or tomorrow will be some new paint, mirrors, lights, and a more up to date shelf.

I may stop by earlier If it OK jerry Let me know what is a good time.

For a model project... anyone know of a model I can get a 1/12th model of a rotary engine (assume I have to buy a whole model car kit to get it). I doubt that I will find anything, but we will see. I don't want to "invest" a fortune in this either.
It sounds cool that everyone is going Wednesday. Anyone know if Randy and Rich know about it?

If it has oil in it to it's capacity then it's either bearings or the input shaft bearing up front. My 79 did that when I was beating it to hell on the track and it sounded like a supercharger, the higher the revs, the louder it got. Turned out to be the input shaft bearing which is in front, you have to drop the tranny for that one and replace.

Johny, Cool Deal on the radiator. I will let my buddy know of that. I am off so you can come anytime. I live not even 10 minutes from there and that's hitting lights.
