You're welcome, Steve! You have a very cool RX7, when my copy of Hot Rod arrived, I hadn't looked at it yet, and Tony stopped over and was looking through it and saw your car. Hopefully I can get out more this coming year and get out with your guys. Bob

Nice ride! I remember reading about it on EPP's website. Are you still running the granny's speed rear suspension set up? If so, how do you like it?

Yes I am and it has never been a problem but If I had it to do over I would have gone with a 4 link or ladder bar.
