congrats! I live about 20 minutes away from him. definitely drop me a line when you're in the area. You may want to touch base with Dennis as well. He's on your way back to Ohio. He'll be a good resource for you.

it should be on the driver side, near the top of the footwell in the engine compartment.

I don't know if the one I saw was a tall one, but Coveland accidentally shipped me a nose instead of fenders, and it would not fit.

bolt patten is standard Toyota... I forget the measurements. On the road right now http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/images/emoticons/smile5.gif You should contact Dennis at Short Mountain Enterprises at 304 274 0671. He can answer all these questions. He used to work for Rotus, and has everything including jigs, factory molds, etc...

Try Hagerty. Did you just buy one? It's not Alec's Rotus from MD, is it?

I don't think it would look much different, since the back is much wider than the nose and the rear tires are very near the body

That "little blue car" is a beauty http://www.ntahc.org/pastevents/2000/AllBrit2000/04300019.jpg

Very nice! were you guys doing donuts there?

it was in the mid 60's and traffic was surprisingly light. Gotta love it when you can drive the Seven to work in late November [slomove]Ain't no big deal - we do it all the time in cali[/slomove] http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/images/emoticons/biggrin5.gif

I've been using Toyo Proxes RA1 with pretty much the same objectives as yours. I originally had Nitto 550, and these offer ALOT more grip (as expected). I have not tried other popular tires like the Avon.

Can't make it there from MD, but please post pics when you're done.

Steve, thanks for the post. great read. sorry to hear of his passing :sadangel:

Found it! YouTube Video

Man, that RX-7 climbed up on top of the seven http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/images/emoticons/eek6.gif glad to hear he's fine.

I definitely won't paint my car yellow...

John, that was freaky... I was reading your post, thinking this guy's jaw is gonna drop when I post back and tell him I know a guy in VA who had a stalker, upgraded to super stalker, AND has a Europa AND an Elan... Then I got to the last line, and it says John V. http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/images/emoticons/lol.gif

It's time to kick off the holiday season http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/images/emoticons/biggrin5.gif

As Del posted in the DMOD forum, a typical 7 is comparable to most small cars (the Miata was Del basis of comparison) in width and wheelbase. We have less front and rear overhang, so our overall length is shorter but that is the only size advantage. It is not at all uncommon for a well driven Super Stock Z06 to beat a 7 in an autocross. Look at the Solo Nationals results. Bruce F. If I read the link that Brian GT just posted, typically DM cars are faster than SS, even though on any given autox, it is possible for a Z to beat a 7... The time indices I see are 56.24 for DMod vs. 58.96 for SS.

Well, I'm about to start to start a 3 hr commute to go 20 miles http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/images/emoticons/lol.gif DC holiday traffic sucks... I really hope Gail is swept off her feet in Charlottesville
