Another great gathering! First, because superbly organized by the host. Thank you Laura!
Second, equally important, because of the participants. Extremely interesting and deep digging discussions.
 
I think the most single impressive show was the muffler test on Tracy's test stand. It was Monty's muffler with an adhoc addition. The result was a stunning noise reduction to a pleasant sound (subjective) and a mere 100RPM reduction at max power. I certainly was the quietest rotary I have ever heard.
 
I drove my 88' RX7 the 290 MI and back, running like a clock, with 117,000 MI. on its back. Hope nobody knows about the trunk lid. I don;t know what would have happened without Kelly. Thanks you guys.
 
Richard.
