My car's running okay... I had a clogged fuel filter a couple weeks ago, but that's since been fixed. I need to install my Carter Pump and do some more tuning, though. I'm contemplating whether or not I want to do my suspension/finish my exhaust right now. Kind of saving up/building credit for a DD right now, though...
Jack: BIG BRAKE KIT!?!?!?!? PICS!
We definately need to get a meet setup, though! My buddy Steven is kind of in the process of supercharging his FC right now, and I know he'll want to show it off. He's got pretty much everything to do it, he just needs the time to do so.

The name is Category Five Motorsports and the website is currently under construction! www.catfivemotorsports.com

P.S. my car will be down for about a month at least so hopefully we can push that track day back..

Been at Freddie's the last 2 weeks. Big brakes are on, rotors beded last night on Almonaster & Chef. I'll get some pics up soon.
Installed the upgraded solenoids and only make 7-8psi now. Still enough to blow the doors off a 350Z last night. More trouble shooting!!
I'm headed to Dallas this Friday for the Quad State Rotary BBQ. If anybody locally is going, contact me.

Ted,
Things are good out here in San Diego. No major upgrades (right now). I had to drop my tranny a few weeks ago (broken clutch fork). I installed a lightened flywheel while I was in there. Having the base hobby shop with lifts is a must for those repairs! Car is running well (only 14 psi) and I have a minor issue to deal with (leaking master cylinder).
I plan on doing some upgrades in the winter. I will be pulling my motor for a major streetport from a great engine builder out here, upgrade to 1600 injectors, re-wire fuel pump, etc. My wife has already bought off on me getting my car painted for my b-day in April (what a great lady...).
Getting ready for my first Sevenstock on the 28th I cannot wait to attend the event!
Hope all is well in Louisiana...
Charlie
P.S. - Have you set a wedding date yet?

For many of you autocross guys you should know him. A great driver and very nice man. Shawn, were you and your dad by the crash? I herd it passed a STi which was driven by a photographer and his son a few seconds before he crashed. Story is he swerved back to the inside lane, lost the *** of the car because it cought some grass off the road, went side ways at a high rate of speed, and rolled many many times.
Sorry to be a debbie downer, but thought some of you woul like to know if you didn't already since he was very popular throughout the autox guys. (obviuosly since the guy autox'ed a viper!)
ANYWHO, My car is running like a champ!!! I installed the stock spoiler this week. THat is the most nerve racking thing in the world expecially since my car was just painted!!! It really makes the back of my car look more agressive and very sporty....Love it! My ebiach pro's sould be going on the car next week when I have time.
THats about it for me. I am lookng to buy a house soon and my only real requirement is a two car garage to store and work on Roxy the rx7.
Hopefully we can get a meet or a track event at NPR together soon, but I know it is hard this time of year with the holidays. I am leaving on the 31st. for vegas to go to the SEMA show!!!!! woot woot
THen I will be skiing during the week of thanksgiving. Maybe we can do a christmas party? If I get this house I am looking at we may be able to do somehting there if it intrests anyone.talk to yall soon,

Whassup? My FD now has ABS!!! Woohoo! Also added some bling under the hood. Car is currently in Thibodaux for the BNR upgrade. The FC has also had some work - all the minor hail damage has been fixed and it has some new seat covers. Looks very nice. Definitely will want the FD tuned before taking it to the track...

Brake Pics
Fronts are 13 in. Stoptech kit.
Rears are 12.3 in. 2-pc. Precision rotors with 99 OEM calipers.
They have really good bite. Rotor bed in was fun watching how the speedometer can't slow down fast enough (you'll be down to 5-10 mph and it read 25-30 mph). I've been forced to adjust my brake check technique for tailgaters.

Nice brakes, Jack! They look incredible...
I will be at NPR on the 3rd. Who else is going?
Josh, the last FFQC they had at NPR, there were three Enzos there. Two red and one yellow, and all of them were on the track.
P.S. Screw Vegas, you know you want to be in that sea of Ferraris...

My dad was offered to go twice...
*Shrug*
Have fun, though!
BTW:
The yellow one was on the track in 2003 (as above) and 2004 (seen below).
...If only I had $1.2 million to throw around...
