I'm in the middle of converting my ITS second gen to an E Production car. I have it stripped down and am going to start welding seams and cutting weight. I know this is an IT board, but we're all racers, anybody have any "must do" suggestions? Also, I have a bunch of stuff I will no longer...

Somebody told me that the GCR will allow ECU's that are not in the stock ECU housing. Where can I find out about this to confirm? If it is just proposed, where can I track it's progress? Steve

I'm thinking of getting a digital camera so I can watch my driving. I may even get a traqmate with the ability to put the telemetry on the bottom of the screen. Believe it or not, the kids at Circut City/Best Buy, etc. have no idea on what works best with all of the vibration. SD card, Hard...

Since you posted how much you loved the NASCAR coverage last week, I thought I'd try to go one better. Two words baby.......BARRETT-JACKSON! I'm so glad that Speed channel does not waste our time with boring re-broadcasts of races. I'd much rather watch somebody bid on a garage queen than...

Hi all, Can somebody point me in the right direction...I have an ITS Mazda RX-7 and will be running the 13 hour race. Who makes lighting kits for this type of usage, and how much light should I have? Thanks

I just put together a plan and am planning on going to VIR for the Charge of the Headlight Brigade on November 3-4. Who else is going?

:D I've always run very hot, 250 water and 230 oil. After trying about everything I could think of, I swapped ECU's with a fellow 2nd gen driver. Holy Crap, what a difference! I could tell on the pit lane as I went out for qualifying. The engine came to life at around 5K and pulled until...

Hi, I'm not selling home loans, or sex, but thank you for looking at my post.... In the ITS world, Porsche 944's are not supposed to dominate are they? The reason I ask is there are a couple of them running in the midwest that seem a bit too powerful for ITS cars. I understand that a great...

Hi all, I'll be doing a 4 hour enduro in my second gen RX-7 on labor day weekend. I also have 2 sprint races the same weekend so it should be a blast. Any suggestions on preparation other than what I do for sprint races? Steve Oh yea, the team name is "the Felix Wankles".

Hi All, This may be slightly off topic, but my cousin blew up his engine. It is a street car, and he has a 4 cylinder with manual transmission. I race an RX-7 in ITS, and I have all kinds of extra stuff including engines. I figured racers are a pretty good source to have stuff laying around...

I finally had a chance to get the compression tested in my 13B S4 motor. The front rotor is 7.8 - 7.7 - 7.9 bar at 237 rpm. Rear rotor is 6.8 - 6.3 - 6.6 bar at 231 rpm. So the rear is a little down on compression and the front is fine according to the technician. Any guestimates on how far...

I'm debating between Khumo V710's, Hoosier R3S04/R6 (depending on availability) and Hankook Z214's. Any comments on comparative speed and durability? I run a 2nd gen RX-7 in ITS. Thanks for your input Steve

My car is a real SOB to start when it is cold. Not cold as in has not run in a day, but cold as in it's 50 degrees and it has not been started yet. Once it's warm, it fires right up. I just read Chris Ludwigs post on carbon apex seals, and it could be that that is what I have in my 13B. I've...

Hi, I've tried to load a picture, avatar, or whatever. I get an error message that says the picture is too large, but I have the "avatar manager" that is supposed to resize it automatically turned ON. Please advise. Steve
