Converting to ITS, need info on RX7s

[jcocke]

Thanks for all the info guys. I know there are some really good deals out there, and y'all listed two of them. Unfortunately, I have more time than money now, and I'm one of those crazy guys that enjoys building the car just as much as racing it (well almost as much as racing). Plus I'm ready to move onto something a little different, and faster

Matt, could you PM with more details about the roller you have? Thanks

I'm located in central VA, around Lynchburg and will be at VIR in a couple weeks.

Come on out and say hello to the ITS guys you'll be racing. A bunch of us on the board should be there, plus some other great guys who don't post much here. It is a pretty tight group and we all help one another out despite heavily competing with each other.

Thanks for the links guys. I've already found out more about these cars in the past 3 days than I knew in my whole life.

So, from an ITS standpoint, these cars are pretty competitive, right? I mean, I do see a lot of them up front, but I also see some 240s up front too.

Not trying to stir the pot, but hey, its racing!

If you can keep a Z car running, and you REALLY know how to set them up, they can be very fast. But...parts are becoming very scarce. So the "keep it running" part will be difficult at best.

The RX-7 will share the same issues, but further up the road.
