My son and I have been racing a first gen RX-7 in IT7 and STU the last few years. We entered the POS-7 in the recent Chumpcar race at Hallett back in August. Everything was going just fine with few problems. After ten hours and only a clutch problem the engine started to temp spike...

So much for the east versus west divisional debate! www.gatewayraceway.com Hopefully this is temporary but I doubt it.

Seeing Espenlaub's article in the latest GRM on the fire got me to thinking of my egress capabilities in the POS-7. Getting out could be made a whole lot easier on my slow, old, fat ass if I had a quick release wheel in front of me. Any of you first gen guys done this? (I'm sure some of you...

Looks like I have a good find on a disc brake rear axle assembly for our POS-7. Any one swapped out a drum rear to a disc rear on a first gen? Any trouble spots beyond R&R? I need to do a bit of research on the existing braking system to see what else needs to be changed (proportioning valve...

Time has come to start preparation for the season. I would like to hear opinions on Carbotech pads and how they work in a first gen RX-7. I have "heard" they are pretty rotor friendly and very consistent in pedal feel. Any opinions or thoughts one way or the other? We have been running Hawk...

The tale from the beginning! Went up to STL for a BMW HPDE this past weekend and break in the new POS-325. Since we are going to make this into an ITA car we figured it would be a chance to get a good baseline on the car and a nice break from our POS-7. Had an extra crewman/passenger on Saturday...

Just checking to see if we'll have anyone to get in the way of at the double national coming up in STU. I'll be in the POSTU-7 on Saturday with Trey running Sunday. Anyone else planning on attending?

The young stud race car driver in my family has just about convinced me to go ahead with a fuel cell installation in the POS-7 for the upcoming year. I profess to being really clueless on this subject. I have done some looking on the ATL site for some recommendations. For those of you that...

Enough drivel about the schedule! We all know we are going to race somewhere at sometime in 2009! What do you have planned to do to the race car for your winter upgrades? Trey and I have settled on a plan for getting the POS-7 a little faster and braking better. 1. Fix the brakes! We'll...

Never too early to get a thread going! If all goes well I'll be in an ITB Bimmer and Trey will be in IT7 both days. If not, Trey and I will split the POS-7 in IT7. Who is coming and what class? I still would like to have an IT7 get together if we get enough interested to do something.

Running an 85 in IT7 here in St. Louis. Any recommendations for a source of carb jets and pieces?

Any decent video out there my son may be able to look at for track familiarization? Thanks!

This is from an article I have written for a couple of national club publications. I seem to be having problems getting the pictures associated with the document to attach so if anyone could help me out with that I'd appreciate it. <div align="center">A DREAM FULFILLED </div>By: BUD SCOTT I...

Any leads on possible IT rentals for the March school at Gateway in St. Louis?
