Great conversion Mike! Your FD is truly bad *** now.

The USCC event was great to go to with you this year. Thanks for letting me come... it was awesome! We need to post that video of you racing that particular silver AWD turbo car

9 second street car that handles/brakes great with a little juice for sure!

you have a sick car.

how much power did it put down?

Im with the others too, what did SCC think about the car? I see they had an LS1 RX7 tested vs a built rotary RX7 in which I think the LS1 performed sub-par. Im sure your car would make them really see the light

um... the latest issue of SCC had an f-body on the cover and talked about ls1 rx7's. I'm pretty sure they might know a little more about displacement than you're giving them credit for.

The wheels look like Work Meister (spelling?) SZR(s). That's a really amazing car, looks like it's time for the 250+ shot .

Sounds like a challenge Nick. let me know when you are ready for the road course, if you can keep up in the turns then we will race in a straight line. I have the 250 shot ready for you.
