Re: Next CDC Autox Saturday Sept 14th TNT Sunday Sept 15th
anybody find my numbers last event? 639? 10 inch white numerals? Ed, I'm bringing like 10 RX8 buddies out to TnT day on Sunday (we had two guys who couldn't be there Saturday) and I think 6-7 of them are not CDC members yet, so I'll need to register them as guests. I'm waiting on their info to do so...

Re: Bowie August 31 Results
I used various other cars throughout the day since my car was having problems, but my quickest time was set with (Josh's FR-S) the same index that I registered with so my standings shouldn't change. The culprit has been found! Cracked cap seat was preventing the coolant system from pressurizing! On ...

Re: Autox Bowie 8/31/13 ($10 2nd Slot discount) & Dent Remov
Well, I have a coolant leak of unknown origin, but I wanted to say a big THANK YOU! to Josh and Mike for letting me have my way with their cars in my hour of need! :D In spite of the leak, I did drive home successfully and in typical motorsport fashion, without incident except when I was trying to c...

Sweet dude, I'll be there on new tires, I'm now 245 section instead of 225, this combined with my sparkly red paint has bestowed unto the rx8 an additional 10 imaginary(or is it?!) horsepowers!
Fingers crossed for a dry running!

I don't know Rock, that's 17% stouter than the engine and trans were made for, but yeah I'll keep it in mind if I can't find one closer to 3.31

Re: 2011 Ford Mustang 3.7 V6 with 6sp manual into 2005 RX8
I think that swapping the stock rear diff gearing for one of the longer ratios and just using OEM half shafts would be best, the mustang uses a 3.31 vs. the rx8 4.44, so I'll have to look at the ring and pinions that fit my diff. The diff is used in many applications so there's a lot of browsing aro...

Re: SPK 24 hr enduro Saturday August 3rd
Looking back on the race, which we finished 11th of 12 :oops: I was surprised to see how well prepared the top 7 or 8 teams were, the competition was pretty tight up there, with the leaders battling it out separated by just 45 seconds at the end of the 24 hours. So the bottom three teams were just g...

Thanks! :) As far as fab work, there's motor and xmsn mounts, rear diff brackets, mod driveshaft and half shafts, transmission tunnel modification, oil pan reshap...

Haha Eric we actually lost a guy so if you want to join the team then by all means we'd be happy to have you. But if you just want to hang out were all showing up Friday night for practice during the arrive and drive session, you could come show the new guys how its done

Re: 2011 Ford Mustang 3.7 V6 with 6sp manual into 2005 RX8
Id be more worried about how to pass emissions testing. I don't think you'll have a problem with inspection unless you plan on selling it. I wont have problem with the sniff test since this engine will be considerably better on emissions than the renny. As long as the swap goes well and I can get a...

2011 Ford Mustang 3.7 V6 with 6sp manual into 2005 RX8
I can find a rolled 2011 mustang with this engine/trans combo to use as a donor for $1200, but apparently this swap isnt legal in MD. Anyone have any ideas to make this happen? can i register it in another state? I'm more interested in the legal side rather than the technical side. how long could i ...

Car is set to be reverted back to (stx legal) original rear diff ratio of 4.444 this Sunday. I'm swapping with someone who does all city driving where the positives of the diff are positiv-er and the negatives are negligible :D If going back to the original diff puts me back onto 20mpg highway, I ma...

I'd like to see this car go to someone that will use it properly. the car is in great working order apart from some quick-fixed oil lines that aught to be permanently fixed, it just uses too much gas on my long commute to not feel guilty using it as such. The car is a blast to autocross and pretty c...

Re: Woodbridge July 13th Results
I had a great time out there today guys! Looking forward to the next one, and many thanks for the rapid turnaround on the times posted!
Btw, I signed up with the C134 RX-8 but I brought the C133 BRZ which should move me down the index scoring some.
