http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5IEI-z6wX0 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5IEI-z6wX0) A short clip from the Waterford hills track day, only was able to do a few laps before getting black flagged due to burning up oil (2 qts. in 12 mins) and spewing large clouds of blue smoke out the exhaust because of stuck oil control rings. And on top of that the clutch was slipping like crazy. ughh :/
but on a good note though it was nice to finally meet awfc3s and ITSWILL! I Hope to see more members at future MRC events and possibly some track events, I look forward to it!

Great to meet you yesterday John. Had a blast. Need to figure out how to keep my water temps down on the track.
-
were you able to make it til the end of the day?
-
No I didn't make it. I was halfway through the second session then I pulled the plug. I was running cooler than the first session but held at a constant 210.

210 is still way to high, you wanna be at a max of 200, but 180 to 190 is the best. too bad you had to end the day early, but its not worth blowing the engine for. hopefully you come out next time, its nice to see street RX-7's coming out for track days!
