Dan has been bogged down with everyone else.  Isn't helping work keeps needing me on my days off.  Haven't even bought my extra splash of paint to redo my quarter panel.

ring your RX-7 and make everyone cry.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride! -Hunter S. Thompson

Should I hand out ear plugs or let it be a surprise?

Sorry Dan, but you just let the cat out of the bag.

Years ago, I attended a dyno day at Computer Car in Denver (sponsored by MOTR).  I learned then to have ear plugs handy.

Bruce,

Yes, I would be flat towing the Moke (unless I manage to find an appropriate small trailer).  It would be a two day drive each way for me, but that is what I am planning.  PM me for my email address and we can discuss the caravan idea further.

1979 Daytona 24 hours, the first weekend in Feb - the first year they ran the RX7 - the noise was so loud it physically hurt. Other car drivers complained too, the next race (Sebring in March) they had to have mufflers....

I remember RX3 race cars running in SCCA races in the 1970s.  Scary loud!

I have 2 mufflers and 2 resonators, it's still loud.  I think my all time favorite street altercation was some kid who thought he'd try me.  When I punched it and the wastegate opened it scared him so bad he physically swerved off the road.

So, ear plugs AND ear muffs required?
