Maybe the Sheraton Bloomington Hotel? Address is 7800 Normandale Blvd, Minneapolis, MN.

Also if I could toss out a phone number to someone like MadeULook or XDJ JDX just in case my GPS hates on me, or more commonly I get lost, that would be great! I promise I wont text or call you before 6:30 haha
Well looks like I will be in burnsville after all... so we could meet somewhere in burnsville, i would say the Champps Parking lot.. 1200 County Road 42
Burnsville, MN 55337.. it is literally a one minute drive for me. 9522108791.

Ah ok, i'll program that address into my gps no problem, I'm leaving at 4:30 a.m. so that puts me in Burnsville at about 6:30 a.m. I'll call you as soon as I'm getting into the area.

One more thing, Does anyone know of a pretty easy pull up and go through car wash around the area we are going to this show? Looks like i might run through some rain on the way up

Any idea where a good dyno shop for rotary tuning?

Hello,

I completed the install of Esmeril turbo kit on my car about a month and a half ago but don't have a chance to get the car tuned. Right now it is running on base map which runs very rich. It runs great but need tuning. Do any of you know a good dyno shop that would do tuning on rotary car? The one place I know is RS Motorsports in Burnsville. They do have experience tuning RX7s using APEX engine management system. There is a shop called DB performance in Rogers near my house that do dyno tuning but they refuse to do tuning on rotary engine. If anyone know such place please PM me.

It supposes to rain this weekend but I will try to make it to the meet.

Thanks guys.

RC

Hey all- what happened to mnrx8club.com?

My brother in law just bought another RX-8, so I've got one foot back in the RX-8 community again ;-)

RS Motorsport does a pretty good job, at least for the RX7s... and i am preety sure they will take care of you and your 8... Savage Streets Machines off of HWY 13 in savage do a great job on all cars... and you should go there cause they need more customers... shoot them an email and see what they say and quote you....
