Possibly My New Track Car :D

I would love the silver one. She is a sexy beast! I am sorry I missed you last time you were in town. I was incredibly busy. The next time you are back we definitely need to get some food!!

Are you going to keep this one yellow? It doesn't look like CYM. Is it?

If someone put an LS into a CYM R1 it would make me cry.

You kill me, I think you are trying to start a FD car lot

. I would finish it as is and track the hell out of it!

I agree w/ Dan. If you want a track rat, that looks like a nice acquisition. With that full cage for safety and as much as I like rotarys, the LS1 would be hard to beat for its reliability and power on a track.

I'm 99.9% positive that it's not CYM. Not sure just yet what I'm going to do with it. We'll def. get together and get some food when I get home. Maybe you could bring the turbo miata out and have a miata/RX7 get together. Brian, Chad, and whoever else could bring their Miata's out. I was very suprised how fast those turbo Miata's are!!

Sell it to you cheap

I'm trying to give David Jerome a run for his money... haha. Yeah, I'm leaning more towards finishing it. May need to send this one your way so I don't have to waste any track time when I get home.

That's pretty much my take on it as well. I generally despise yellow cars. The one exception to that rule is a track car... which I think should be a little flamboyant. If I would of painted it, it wouldn't be yellow... but I'm good with the color

Yeah, that's what I'm leaning towards

I agree completely. The previous owner spent ~$4000 on the cage. It was done right, which was a big selling point for me. Not having to constantly worry about the rotary would be nice... not to mention I was born and raised on 350 chevy's. My dad may have this running and terrorizing the track before I ever get home.... haha. He has always tried to get me to do this conversion in the past whenever I have an engine out of an FD.

Yep, like I told you on miataturbo, if you need any help let me know. I've been through a miata from one end to the other.

Chad, I like your idea, when we getting started on this thing. We'll have it sorted out nicely by the time Brent gets home.

Like I have been telling Dan just let me know when and if I can get over I will.
I am getting my promotion tomorrow and will be going to days (mon-fri 8hours) instead of my one (24 hrs) shift on and 2 (48hrs)off.

He has to show up to a Rotary meeting again before any advise is offered!
