Exclamation Widefoot Racing 4/10/05

I was planning on taking a drive over to Hillsboro, NH this Sunday to check in with David Breslau at Widefoot Racing. In the past we have met up at the Hooters parking lot in Manchester, NH at 10am. We normally hang out for ~30 minutes to give everyone a chance to show up. Then we'll head on over to Hillsboro (~40 minutes) which has some nice twisty sections along the way. We'll hang out with David for a little while, grab lunch, and then head back to Manchester.

The shop should look a little different this time. David says, "you can admire the
clashing colors we've painted the walls, and see that the equipment I bought really
can be operated! Also, the famous "Stack 'O RX-7's" is open for viewing." :p

Anyways, let me know ASAP if want to go on this run.

Question

So what happened to all the Mass 8 owners that wanted to get together? Here's an opportunity to get together and drive some nice roads to a rotary shop. So who else is in?

Count me in! I will meet you guys at 10am. This will give me a good chance to feel the handling effects with the new rims and tires.

Oh, Racing Beat REVi intake ETA this Wednesday :-)

That FC looks like Greg Coe's car.I think he is working for David now so that is probably his.I wish I had the time to head up there with you guys because I have yet to see David's shop.I know him pretty well,and in fact was consulting with him during the wiring stages of construction,but I lived too far away to do any of the work he needed done,and besides I don't think my license was good in NH(electrical that is).Give me a shout next time you guys head up and I will try to make it.

my10ae,
Thanks for taking the lead and keeping us out of trouble. I really appreciate it.

RPIRX-8,
OK, I'm going to hold you to it now that I've got it in writing. LOL

Mazda605,
Yes, that' is Greg's car. He mentioned that he needed to replace the tranny before he could put that bad boy back on the road. The shop has come along ways since the last time we saw it. It now has interior walls, a bathroom, heat... You know all of the things that we take for granted. The machine shop and lift are operational. It won't be too much longer before they are all setup and ready to roll.

Here are a few more photos from the run.

Hey Chris,

Yup that's my car. She's a little sick right now as Speed Racer mentioned, but that'll all (hopefully) change this weekend. It was great having you all up and I hope to se you again soon. Seems the crowd gets bigger every time. Chris, you're welcome to come up and take a look. Anyway, thanks for a great day Sunday!!

Greg
