nice work julz....keep it coming the blue rx7 has yet to be weighed since it had a complete overhaul of the cage/chassis prior to being sold. on top of that all the other work carried, like carbon fibre intake/air filter setup, water/air cooler, all done by Raceline Fabrications. Once the car has its corner weights checked and the car balanced correctly with the adjustments needed, there is no reason why it should launch straight. Obviosuly making the power from the mph...

not sure of the new owner but yes, the old engine that came with the car let go quite a while ago. i was there when it rattled all the way down the track. i did spit a seal not long ago you could see it against the pac rx3 where it spun mid track and with steam coming out the bonnet. now bill has his hands on it you know the power and reliability will be there.

yeah I seen that....pity the one that put all the work into it never got a mention...at all....never believe what you read in magazines. Check out the sticker on the rear window and tag on the plenum compared to what is said in the article. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I'm pretty sure it is Joe's old car, not Po's... Could be wrong though. Joe sold the car to M&M racing who had it for a few years and then they sold it. M&M now own the "hurricane" and a few other cars Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
