Went to pick up the Rx7 FB with Matt (RX7GEN3) Jens brother and George the boss of Pac Performance ask me to take the car for a run at the track and some of the boys from pac came along to see how she's running. We get there and there a Honda Civic with a sticker on the back window saying " Rice Boy Engineering" so of course I . We went for a drive on the track to see it's condition. Nice and clean, maintanance people were there. I informed them that I will be having some runs so they'd know what's happening. After having a few runs Mr rice boy came and saw us and asked if we wanted to race. You bet. What can I say, had a look at his car and saw a bottle of NOS where the passengers seat should be.

Now I'm thinking . We agreed best of 3. I won 2 races and there was no 3rd race cause "ready for It" ""The Nos isn't working properly"" What the. Anyways, The cars running ok but I'm sure she can run better or maybe it's just me.

(Sorry for it being so long)

Here's a picture of the engine bay during some changes to parts.

No I/C I guess when your running 9 seconds at a time there really isnt a need for one.
