  1. I never knew that could be done. I have to watch it again to figure out how it's done
  2. Solution....Dont't use the stock disc any longer. Move to a street/race disc.
  3. Tom, Count us in for Sevens at NJMP in July.
  4. Shane, Tom had to send me a direct email about your accident as I haven't been in the site for a while. So sorry to learn about it, but glad to see you are already active on line. BTW: Robin is something special. I hope you are good about paybacks ;-) I have had enough injuries with surgeries to understand where what you are going through. Rest. Rest. Rest. Until you are given the OK to move anything by your surgeon. Then comes the seeming endless PT. Don't over do it and follow their directions to a T. All the while, I imagine you will go over the incident in your mind a few hundred times diagnosing the cause and thinking about the proper corrective measures. You will likely have it all planned out by the time you are fully recovered. I hope that all does not take to long and we can all get together again. Best wishes. Our spirits are with you and your family. Michael D
  5. Hoosier This is a link to all of their road racing tires. https://www.hoosiertire.com/rrtire.htm
  6. You might look into these as they as what are raced on 6-8" rims [TABLE] [TR=bgcolor: #f0d3f1] [TD=align: center]43168[/TD] [TD=align: left]20.0 x 7.5-13 A2500[/TD] [TD=align: center]SR[/TD] [TD=align: center]8.0"[/TD] [TD=align: center]20.6"[/TD] [TD=align: center]65.0"[/TD] [TD=align: center]6-9"[/TD] [TD=align: center]8"[/TD] [TD=align: center]9.4"[/TD] [TD=align: left]R25B, R35A[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] I have used these to the last two seasons on 8" rims but they are a little taller [TABLE] [TR=bgcolor: #f0d3f1] [TD=align: center]43271[/TD] [TD=align: left]21.5 x 8.0-13[/TD] [TD=align: center]SCCA-F, SR[/TD] [TD=align: center]8.2"[/TD] [TD=align: center]21.4"[/TD] [TD=align: center]66.8"[/TD] [TD=align: center]8"[/TD] [TD=align: center]8"[/TD] [TD=align: center]9.5"[/TD] [TD=align: left]FE SCCA[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]
  7. http://static.mjdtopsites.com/user_files/105/uploads/P1000648.JPG Try cutting some of the clams away. I also have wide track with no lift at any speed including top end over 125.
  8. I got it as well. Then deleted it. Thanks for the heads up and thanks to Mazda for working on this. What a PIA. On a positive note my 7 started right up after sleeping for 97 days. What a great day for a ride. Almost perfect. Time to start planning out my track and autocross days.
  9. Thanks for sharing. Great to watch as it is snowing and 34 degrees.
  10. Looks like Dermots'. But his was right side up. At least before he drove it into the wall at the end of the front straight at Summit Point.
  11. Only a blond would shovel without a coat. Shame I was not there to help. I think I by Karen the same outfit. Merry Merry to all.
  12. No shoppin, no turkey just sunshine, warm air, clear water, good music, cold beer, beautiful sunsets and family down in the keys. Wishing you all a wonderful Holiday Season.
  13. Thanks for sharing. They were both great fun to watch. Boys will be boys.
  14. Gosh, didn't know you guys were call storkers because of your cars ;-)
  15. Buy a 1 or 1 1/2" "rubber" chair leg or crutch cap at Ace hardware. Use it to plug in the tailshaft as soon as the drive shaft pulls out. This will keep most of the gear oil in the trans as it is pulled out of the car with the engine..
  16. It's not enough that your tires are aligned and look alike. To be really fast... mount Panasonics because they sound fast at all speeds. ***Panasonics are another Vermont exclusive.
  17. I like the idea of having an opening to get to the speedo linkage. Without one connecting and disconnecting the speedo can be a real PIA. Especially when you are on your back.
  18. Proper fill level/quantity is pased on the high or low location of the fill plug as seen in the photos here. http://topdocsracing.com/pdf-links
  19. I have two T-9s and the fill plug on the side of both of them is a 10 mm allen. I use a 10 mm allen wrench cut down to 5/8" and a open wrench to remove it. Photos here: http://topdocsracing.com/pdf-links T-9 manual here: Type 9-N Gearbox pdf
  20. agreed. I might be the only way to determine the real cause of the leak and making the fix.
  21. I agree. You can even rent Big Ornge by the lap while you drive Yellow. Yes it was perfect day for a ride in my Seven in DC as well. Had to take the afternoon off to change the oil then go for a ride in the country. Cars and Coffee in Great Falls, VAat 7AM tomorrow.
  22. You could buy one 911 or two Corvettes; a coupe and a convertible ;-)
  23. All questions brought up seem to be very valid.
  24. Full specs? weight diameter width material 1,2,3 piece
