Courage C65 updates with some pictures

For all of you B-K Motorsports C65 Courage fans, check out this news update about the car and it's new location. As a hint to all of the people who know a little about past rotary history in this country and who is responsible for much of it, you shoud recognize the place in the pictures. I'll give a few a hint, you'll see a couple of RX792P LeMans cars in the pictures and it is in Atlanta. This is a great website and is always updated with the most current information. Take a look through it to see alot of LeMans car specs and history. Great site. Scroll down the page to 8.18.05 for all the info.

As long as we are talking about B-K Motorsports here, does anyone know what frequencies they use for comunications? I was trying to find out for the Road America race and couldn't. A search of the web came up blank also.

a 4 rotor is going to race p1, the engine has been in development for some time but I hope they race in the two classes.

This is actually Dennis Spencer's shop and not Jim Downing's. Mazda sent three of these 792P chassis to Atlanta. One of them is at Jim's shop being restored for them. The other 2 are at Dennis' shop. I'm not sure if he has aquired them or what exactly is going on. The one at our shop (Downing Atlanta) will be returned to Mazda in time for Sevenstock. You can thank people like Berny from Rotary News, Kelvin and Mr Davis at Mazda if you enjoy seeing and hearing the finished product next month. I'll try to provide some pics if I can of what's going on over there.

Rotary Crazy, you sound like a cool guy and definitely an extreme enthusiast. Why don't you buy a ticket and come see us at Sevenstock?

Im building a house so all funds are going in it , I even put on hold mi road race car proyect ( execpt for RX-2 im piking up tomorow :D ) but if I come across some funds Ill be there in a heart beat.

I just made a thread about some of my cars you can check it out on the general forum.

Im starting a local club here too, is going to be the firts rotary club in my country.

back on topic I heard fron some people that the courage is not giving the engine enoug air and that they are getting heat problems and are short shifting the gears?
