Lets not forget that DrBob of this parish owns a Group C Mazda RX7 which he keeps in this part of the globe. I recall a couple / few years ago he brought it down to PI and we were running around the paddock contacts (successfully) looking for a certain pressure fuel regulator (or was it pump?) to try and solve a bit of a misfire problem.

I will have some pics of that car somewhere on a portable hard drive. (Which hard drive will be the challenge!)

drbob should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Haha thanks Chris. Fond memories. That must have been when it caught fire. Overfueling collecting in muffler then whoosh. The only damage was to the muffler.

Thanks for the photos EB. I didn't get much of a chance to get out and take photos, but I did run into some of the posters on here, like David Towe.
