Based on his history, I knew this would be a beautiful car. Congrats!!

They're not adjustable. They just sit there. http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=13305&stc=1http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=13306&stc=1http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=13307&stc=1http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=13308&stc=1

We've got lots of nice, usually nearly empty, twisty roads that go up canyons. And, our weather is often more predictable. But, all the people, and sevens, are on the other side of the mountains. But, if the Chelan/Wenatchee area is of interest, I would be happy to put together a route with some great stops. I did watch Bruce Beachman in a couple of races at Pacific Raceways last weekend dicing with some Porsches. While I am not interested in racing like he does, a track day would be another option that would interest me.

I have those wheels already, but wanted to say that is a great looking Westfield.

I'm in the Chelan area, and would join up if practical from here. Al

I would be interested in hearing about any northwest gathering of 7s. -Al

Congrats on the sale! Enjoy the vacant garage space.

Turbo Tom did work on the head on my Zetec for a previous owner. It has quite a few mods. It is lots of fun to drive though and never seems to run out of breath until the rev limit is hit. It has: Crower Stage 3 cams Emerald ECU 45mm Raceline Injector Throttle Bodies ARP Head, Crank & Rod bolts Under Drive Pulley System Adjustable cams Crankscrapers High rpm oil pump with hardened gears According to the previous owner, he had a base line dyno in Ohio to see what it was doing, 113 REWHIP at around 5600 RPM. After Tom did the heads and cams & tune, it made 185 REWHIP. About a year or so latter, after he spent about 2 days fine tuning the cams, he took it back to the same dyno here and it did 203 REWHIP he thinks at 7,800 RPM. All of this was on pump gas, since it was a road car. I've verified most of those parts are in the car and that it is a blast to drive. FWIW.

Great looking car!

I'm just about as far away as you can get and be in the continental U.S., but can be game for creative solutions. Who knows...

Even from the opposite side of the country, I enjoy this weekend just from the posts, videos and photos. What a great time! I'm envious there isn't something similar anywhere from Denver west each year. Thanks for sharing the fun time.

Had fun playing in some canyons this weekend. One of them has a 12% grade for over 5 miles! Coolant stayed at 100 C or lower and the oil at 220F or below with ambient temperature over 90. The cockpit was surprisingly cool. I'll try the bimini top next time to stay out of the sun a bit more.

They are gorgeous cars.

I'm 6'2" and have an older one (non irs) that I fit in fine. It isn't as roomy as my F250, but with the pedals forward and the seat all the way back I fit fine. I did make a bit taller roll bar.

IMHO that is a fantastic Stalker. If you want something smaller that appears to be better value to me than the green one, have a look at this one: http://bringatrailer.com/listing/2009-birkin-s3/

From the other side of the country, I have to say this event makes me envious. I read about it each year and it looks fantastic! I enjoy it vicariously....

Wow, that looks and sounds great! GLWS

I read through this whole thread after seeing it have activity on it last night. What a great discussion! It gives me some insight on the box of Hawk brake pads that came in a box with my Birkin as well. Thanks all!
