Thanks man. Both of those sound cool. The May race is a possibility.



That's cool. You will have the Fort setup for us then right? I was just talking to Loran about the Sour Grapes race today. Emily and Foster will not be out of school yet but we are thinking about how to make it happen.



We be back to the Sugar Bowl for sure. Just let us know when you get a two day race put together or just the next race period and wil come down and make a long weekend out of it.

Jeff,

Look what came today! Woo Hoo!

Default Why Buy From Hong Kong??

why buy from hk,if you live in the USA? dude were in a RECESSION..Brooklyn Hobbies has em for $625.00 can't beat that with a stick. Call, ask for richie, good guys there, and VERY knoledgeable, and you will be supporting U.S.A. most of all.....His prices are the best you will find in the country, our country i would call asap as im not sure if thats intro pricing etc, but at that price, im sure they won't stay on the shelves long...

Default clutch dusting

almost all rx8 in my country did have dusting issue. the red clutch came with the package will not last longer than 30mins.
what the sponsored driver did is to replace the red clutch with the serpent red clutch together with the serpent spring cup and the mugen bearing stopper H0756 for longer shimming distance. No more dusting.

if you haven't used the original red clutch yet, just save it. don't waste the clutch(it is expensive, you can sell it to nt owner or see if you can exchange it) and time.(my 2 cents)
good luck!
