I need to beef up my Autopower roll cage that is in my race car. I have the bare minimum cage and want a little more safety. Anyone know of a cage builder that is trustworthy in the Albany NY area?

I have my RX-7 in my garage for the winter. No exposure to sunlight, or any elements (rain, snow etc.) It does get cold in the garage however since I have no heater out there. Is just being cold bad for the tires? I keep air in them so they don't sit flat. Should I put the car on jack...

I am looking for a set of Hoosier Dirt Stockers for rain tires for next year, and plan to put them on the stock rims for my 84 RX-7. Anyone know what size choices are out there that will fit this rim? Also, are the dirt stockers only good for heavy rain? How are they for a wet track and light...

The system came with one hanger only. I called ISC and they said that they use just the one hanger back at the muffler...then nothing until the header mounted to the engine block. A whole exhaust system supported by one hanger? Does anyone run this setup? If so, does it really get supported...

I have a digital videocamera that I mount to my rollcage. I downloaded people's videos and they look great! I currently am using MGI Cinematic. It was very cheap and it works so-so. The quality of the video is fairly poor. I wonder what program people use that result in crystal clear videos...

I'm just seeing if anyone from this site besides myself are going.

I was welding a bracket on my shock support for my '84 RX-7 and blew a tiny pinhole through the axle. The axle was standing upright so the fluid started squirting out. Before I could lay the axle down, it sprayed all over my left rear disc and caliper. I know I have to clean the entire thing...

I am racing at Lime Rock this weenend and at WGI next month. I just bought a brand new set of Toyo Proxes for my RX-7 ('84) and don't know what people set their tire pressures at for these tires. Any recommendations?

Jake I hope you read this...I am STILL trying to get in touch with you to pay you for the header! I have left tons of messages on your phone. Please contact me here in case your email is still screwed up. Thanks! Ben

Jake, sorry for the strange post, but I don't know any other way to contact you! I still owe you $$ for the header and want to pay you...I guess your email is still messed up. I tried Andy and Dave but nobody had any info on your email. Please let me know if your Paypal account is still...

Here is a question I posted on the EMRA site concerning tires for next year... I am interested in trying a set for next year, but was concerned with the life of the tire. I have been racing on Kumho Victoracers and I like them a lot due to the fact that I was able to get so many events out of...

I started my turn in at Big Bend...and BAM! The panhard bar snapped in two. Off into the dirt I went (without any contact luckily!) Is this a fairly common failure? Thanks! Ben #91 RX-7 ST-2

I have an 84 ST-2 (which is the same as ITA) race car and was wondering what exhaust you guys are running. I have a racing beat header, that joins into a presilencer, and splits again into two pipes to exit through a Mindtrain exhaust. My car passes sound at Lime Rock without any problems...
