I'm sorry to hear about your son!

We always have a good showing of Miatas as well as an '86 RX-7 and a '05 RX-8. We actually have a wide range of sports cars from Corvettes, Camaros, Mustangs, Vipers, Porsches, WRX/STI's, BRZ/FRS's, Evo's, Civics, S2000s, VW's, 335i's, MR2's, 240sx's Integras, RSX's, Velosters, Mini's, etc. It always a good time!

I will keep those driveshafts in mind forsure.
Definitely running at ELP Motorplex on 08Nov. Haven't made up my mind about 11Oct. If I run in October it will be strictly a "tuning" track night for me.

i thought you left back overseas...??? if you're in town you should swing by...


also nate... it was my map switch... when i down shifted to 1st for the last corners i cut the wire with my clutch. its wired to the ecu in the circuit that is protected by the fuse that blew... once i isolated the circuit i ran it down with my dvom... i cut out the wiring for the switch and the car is back up and running well... just sent the first few logs to aaron aka john bradley so i can get the tune rolling... hopefully by friday i should be able to run full boost and next friday full power...


HIGH HORSEPOWER EF4 TURBO EVO IN THE WORLD COMING SOON... hopefully...

The original plan was for me to leave the 20th back overseas because I was shooting for a tax break this year...but those plans changed so I will be here a bit longer. Leaving today to get my evo and should be back Sunday hopefully. Plan on cleaning it up and try to cruise Wednesday if possible...maybe a little Sunday night to get some seat time.

Going to clean up the evo today. Need to get a touchup pin for the paint. Should be good to cruise tomorrow or something if anyone wants to.
