Our Hero, cheerleader and already driver!

well, don't forget all the white piping!

Great to see dad enjoying himself with his friends!

Croc- What day are you planning to meet at Retromobile? Jim

Two adorable photos!

@Vovchandr I would have been happy to let you take the 420 out for a spin. We could have even put the plates back on. If not before then next years event.

Sad trombone noises. Huge credit for Croc for saving me with experience from going down a very long and wrong partitioning path for the problem. I realized too late I missed my once a year opportunity to ask somebody to take me for a quick spin as a passenger in the paddock in a Duratec car to see what that powerband feels like compared to mine. Or maybe even the crazy 620 to experience the crazy wheel spin. More power is very low on the totem pole but the desire is there.

Nothing yet. We caught up a few weeks ago and it was third on project list. Hope to have an update shortly!

MSR Houston (https://msrhouston.com) is the only one I know of, and they're moving to a "country club" vibe. We'd have to see about renting the track I think.

Please do!

Hi Tim, Do you mind if I put a selection of these into a new event gallery on USA7s please? I was going to upload mine this weekend. thanks m

MY Rotus anyway, is spot on 17" Miata seat base pan is 16.25" +/- .2"

rad is only 3-4" behind the grill in the nose

I think the Powdercoat wrinkle from Arch is really good, way better than I was expecting! Should be tough too! Ian

Harris Hill near San Marcos? Seriously, I don't know how to find a track day near Houston.

I am totally ignorant about ECUs, but a tuner I trust likes to recommend Haltech. I may still have him replace the Megasquirt in 74PHIL with a Haltech. I will say that when he checked out the documentation on the OMEX 600 Series ECU in the Birkin I am selling, he told me that car did not need a Haltech.

@ptegler The nose of your car has so much room! I'll take a comparison shot the next time mine is on the lift. My water radiator is mounted behind the front suspension and the, fairly large, oil cooler is sits in the location of your radiator. The packaging works because the 13B is so small. But the cooling efficiency is not as good as it should be. This picture and the NJMP weekend thread has been good motivation to motivate progress on the my Seven instead of other automotive distractions.

Good decision, a little painful but the right thing to do! Nice to start with a clean straight chassis and not have to muck with all the misalignment and ill fitting that creep in over the years. I just got my dash and interior panels back from the powder coater last week (Wrinkle red) and am very pleased. When I put my 7 together 10 years ago I went with red wrinkle paint and it held up pretty well for 5-6 years, but powder is the way to go. Good Luck - Joe

@Rob J. Any update on Time Machine's assessment of the car?

@savagete2860's Better half. Amazing photos, thanks so much. One of my favorites (Sorry @Vovchandr) But this has to be my favorite. I know its not a race, but I will let the viewers decide who won.

Here is a photo dump - the photographer had a favorite so you might have to do some digging but hopefully there are a few good ones of everyone. https://photos.app.goo.gl/Y6QakrBe1BBCiVoAA

Despite not having my car there I had a great time. The people make this event special. I will be there next year with my car. Thanks again for all you do Croc and Yellow.
