I'm registered, not sure if I'll run on the track just yet, it will depend on if I get suspension setup in time. I need to repair the adjuster on one coil over and install the adjustment cables on the rear and get the broken rear sway bar bolt drilled out and get the Hotchkis bar on.

Aren't you the guy that had front hub trouble at H2R?

I'm the Red RX8 that was right behind you.

I'm still out in SA, but I'd like to see how your repair turns out.

I'm not sure yet. It was a great event and I bet it would be even bigger if we did it again next year!

Yes it would. The only thing I have to offer is maybe better communication. I didn't get my track ticket or raffle ticket until after the raffle And when I asked around no one knew where to get them But it was all good, I couldn't track afterall. It was a fun event though, can't wait for next year.

I always appreciate the feedback! Yes, first time around always has a few kinks to work out, but I am glad you enjoyed non-the-less! Having never been to the track or seen the set-up, it was hard to determine what kind of signage would be required. If we come out again, signage will be in full supply

It was great to see so many RX-8's! Thanks for coming to the show!

Yes and a much bigger SARX presence now that most know what to expect. The more advance notice the better for us rotaries since we break a lot
