  1. Mother-Inlaw, driving Father-inlaws very nice MGTD, runs into the back of Father-inlaw, driving his very nice MGA. The damage was light. The story still makes it's way around the dinner table, We won't let her forget it !!!!! He is still mad !!!
  2. Do it !!!! Just cause you can !!!!!!
  3. Kyle, Sorry you have to sell it, it 's a very nice 7.
  4. I think the newest rating is 2005, and then they are good for 5 years, per SCCA. Never been to a track event that let you wear a bike helmet. I have found different makes of helmets fit different, Hope this helps, and enjoy the event !!!!
  5. GB, I like his smile, that say's it all. Well done young man !!!!!
  6. Skip, If the FIA can't bend, F1 as we know it may be history. And I agree with, no factory no involvement.We only need 42 million to start our own team. USA7F1 team. Off to the shore, Steve
  7. Hi, I really enjoyed looking at the great photo's, that really was a fun time. Dear Jen, I will find a much nicer place to pitstop next time, sorry !! Mike you get the iron butt award. Bruce, You don't know it yet, but WE are coming over to drive the Jag's, and the rest of the fleet. Please fill them up with gas before you leave for Bonaire. Look foward to Box and Kyle leading the pack next time. Your's truely, A dryed out Steve
  8. The emphasis is " Build or Buy what you like, and enjoy it !!! I have never found " Cheap and Fast" .
  9. Bruce, You and your wife showed all of us a great time, I like the Ship Inn, the roads that we took were some of the best I have been on. As for the ride home, I hit very hard rain and alot of flooding, glad I was driving the S1 with no doors or top. Again, Well done, let's do it again !!!! Thanks to all that made the drive, Steve
  10. Hi, Very nice 7, Dunnell power plants are well built , and big bucks !!!! Steve
  11. Scannon, Thanks for sharing this, I think the NASA program is cool. Boy is that thing heavy!!!!!! Thanks Steve
  12. Box, You have shotgun !!! Steve
  13. Hi, The weather is going to be great, so I'll see everybody Sat. morning. I am going to take 32 also known as river road, one of the best 7 and bike roads . Steve
  14. Hi Dave, Having your radiator fixed is no big deal for a good rad shop. I have had a few fixed on different cars, Mostly MG's, with success. As for replacing the old one with a new Ali radiator, they can leak too !!!!! The rad on our cars are so low and out front, they take a beating. Good Luck, Steve
  15. Martin, You have raise very good points reguarding this club, something I have thought about often. As you stated, this is the best forum relating to the 7 car there is. I will put on my body armour for my next statement and say, For all the help and info that one can get here, all the great insight on any type 7, And I feel most are covered by our members. The money that can be saved or spent by asking our thoughts or take on the subject is well worth 20 bucks for a membership. Over 1000 guest's and 187 or so paid members. 20 bucks, If you are building a car, or buying a car, that is money well spent. Ok, Here goes, No membership, No post. And if that is wrong, let's come up with a better idea, I am all ears, and no bullet holes, YET !!!! Steve
  16. Yea, I drove it, It is FRANKN7, and I mean that in a really great way, it's bad ass ! The only problem is, now I want to put a LS7 motor into my car !!!!!! I am ruined, the Zetec is no good anymore, Steve
  17. This driver carry's more speed into the corner, so is faster than the rest out of the corner. The trick is to stay off the brakes, and have the talent that he has. Must be nice!!!! Steve
  18. Hey Tom, I hope you enjoyed the time spent with your S1. Maybe someone up in the North-East will buy it, so # 46 and # 47 can get together again. I hope you have a smooth sale, Steve Novelli
  19. Hank, I read the whole thing and it's a great first LEGAL day. I also read your bio afew months back, and I also worked on the 1232 project at Sun-Philly. I work for Nooter, we built the scrubber unit. Good luck with the 7, Drive it like you stole it, it's more fun !!! Steve
  20. Thanks all for the birthday greeting!!!! Dean, Tell your wife Happy Birthday for me. Steve
  21. Hi , I see you have a 7 day planned, you are in my backyard almost. I live in Ambler, but not sure were the Ship Inn is , close to New Hope ? Sounds like a nice day !!! Steve
  22. Today, May 19, Colin Chapman was born, And so was I. Steve
  23. My short list, 60's Lotus 7- not very far, as I don't fit at all. Superformance S1- guy down the street owned. Superformance S1- mine Franken7- it drove it self. Steve
  24. After driving Franken7, I know the S1 is 300hp short !!! Steve
  25. Hi, Nice time at Carlisle on Sat., Chris and I meet up with Simon and his S1 and had a good blat up the turnpike. Nice to see the new members bring their cars.So just when I think this is really a great time, Bam, Mazda said, Steve want to drive my car !!!! Not two seconds out of the lot, Mazda say's " Jump on it", How do I say " HOLY @hit in a nice way. Let me say " It is CRAZY " fast, It handles great, I give it a good brake test and it stops very well. It really is a very good handling 7. It is just so #&%#$@ FAST!! Everyone that owns a 7 needs a ride in this car. Think of it as a "Nextel Cup 7" Thanks Mazda, Al, John and anyone I may have missed, Steve
