  1. We can change that through liberal applications of peer pressure. :jester: :iagree: . . . . :cheers:
  2. Glad to hear you are getting it sorted. :cheers:
  3. That thing is just begging for mods. :smash: . . . . . :auto:
  4. That's my old mirror. Hey Chris, how's the Birkin doing? :cheers:
  5. Add an LS3 for fun! :jester:
  6. Yep, those Storkers are pretty unpredictable at times.
  7. Awesome, Mike!!! :cheers: Okay, cutting to the chase; I'm assuming these fit nicely in your existing buckets.
  8. LOL!!!! Love it!!! :hurray: . . . . . :cheers:
  9. That's just so wrong. :svengo:
  10. Steve, With that fancy nose cone, has anyone ever took your S1 for a Donkervoort? Looking forward to seeing an S1 again in July. . . . . . :cheers:
  11. That's an absolute truth in these circles. :iagree::iagree::iagree:
  12. Yessir . . . . . . :iagree:
  13. Careful, man! You're cheating yourself outta' hoss powa'; 301/.85=354 and some change. That's eight more ponies! :drool: . . . . :cheers:
  14. These things are coming out of the woodwork.. That Craigslist Storker looks to be well sorted. Lot's of choices and bargains for a perspective buyer.
  15. The eBay listing claims the 217rwhp is equal to 290hp at the crank. That's a parasitic loss of around 26% which seems a bit extreme. I’ve always used 15% as a good middle-of-the-road rule of thumb. 15% would give the engine a rating of 255hp at the crank. That would put the engine much closer to Caterhams USA's original 260hp estimate.
  16. I don’t recall ever seeing this many Sevens for sale on eBay at the same time: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lotus-Super-Seven-Caterham-Seven-480-Caterham-Seven-480-SV-Chassis-2-0-Duratec-6-Speed-Manual-15-/291142055976?forcerrptr=true&hash=item43c96b3828&item=291142055976&pt=US_Cars_Trucks http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lotus-Super-Seven-V6-SC-2005-Brunton-Super-Stalker-3-8L-V6-Lotus-7-Replica-0-60-in-3-sec-racing-/281344309099?forcerrptr=true&hash=item41816d776b&item=281344309099&pt=US_Cars_Trucks http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lotus-Super-Seven-sports-1974-Lotus-super-seven-7-series-4-real-Lotus-/281342547893?forcerrptr=true&hash=item41815297b5&item=281342547893&pt=US_Cars_Trucks http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lotus-Super-Seven-Standard-bench-seat-1997-Caterham-7-Classic-/181415434018?forcerrptr=true&hash=item2a3d33d722&item=181415434018&pt=US_Cars_Trucks http://www.ebay.com/itm/Replica-Kit-Makes-Lotus-7-Seven-Roadster-Replica-Roadster-Lotus-7-Seven-Roadster-Replica-/141294502894?forcerrptr=true&hash=item20e5cf03ee&item=141294502894&pt=US_Cars_Trucks http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lotus-Super-Seven-base-coupe-1962-Lotus-7-Seven-Not-a-Replica-/131187312922?forcerrptr=true&hash=item1e8b5f891a&item=131187312922&pt=US_Cars_Trucks http://www.ebay.com/itm/Replica-Kit-Makes-Lotus-7-Roadster-Lotus-7-Roadster-Replica-/191186587791?forcerrptr=true&hash=item2c839bd08f&item=191186587791&pt=US_Cars_Trucks http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lotus-Super-Seven-Caterham-SuperLight-R-Caterham-SuperLight-R450-Carbon-Fiber-Leather-3-Piece-Wheels-/111359974130?forcerrptr=true&hash=item19ed925af2&item=111359974130&pt=US_Cars_Trucks http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lotus-Super-Seven-S2-1962-Lotus-Super-Seven-S2-1500cc-Non-crossflow-A-real-one-/171330094073?forcerrptr=true&hash=item27e411c3f9&item=171330094073&pt=US_Cars_Trucks
  17. Tis' true. :iagree:
  18. Jeff, Hope all is going well with the Birkin. I found another photo of your car back from when it was brand spanking new. I was over visiting Dick Brink one day and we took the car to lunch. I took this photo in the parking lot of the restaurant. . . . . :cheers:
  19. Now, everybody!:smilielol5:
  20. . . . . fun in any language. :auto: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7X3596lvFtw . . . . :cheers:
  21. What about an evening shot (post track sessions) with all cars gathered around the start line. Take the shot from the flag station if the structure is high enough. Or maybe NJMP has a bucket truck handy.
  22. Mike Bearden owned a Birkin with clams. He has since sold the car, but here are couple of links to prior 'for sale' posts regarding the car: http://www.lotusowners.com/ForSale/MB_Birkin_For_Sale/ http://www.usa7s.net/vb/showthread.php?t=8619 Mike's cell is listed in both of those adds. You might give him a call and pick his brain or pm here; MBEARDEN :cheers:
  23. Been watching the videos of NJMP . . . the Cat's seem to be able to hold there own with noooo problem. :cheers:
  24. More simplicity . . . . you're killing me. :svengo: Is absolutely going to be a fun event. Looking forward to all the fun and excitement in July. :flag: . . . . . :cheers:
