I just started to have boost problems yestereday after a Hwy pull. FD is only boosting 5psi on both turbos and I can definitely feel it. Most likely a hose poped off or a coupler split. I'm off to my dads house to see if I can fix it before 2pm. See you guys in a couple of hours.

Great run! Thanks to everyone for coming. Hope someone got pictures.

Eugene, glad that you could make it for the first time, and I hope we didn't scare you off from future runs. Yes, the S2000 CAN go that fast!

Also good to meet John and your wife whose name I already forgot. It was nice that she let you drive her car some of the time.

And kudos to Jesus for staying on my bumper like a leech.

Liem, sorry about losing you on the turn up to Mesa Grande. I hope you can figure out what's wrong with your boost.

Thanks again for a wonderful time Ron. Even though my car was picking up heat half way though going up, I still managed to have a wonderful time.

I spent a couple of hours today trying to diagnose the boost problem with no luck. I guess that's just part of owning a RX7, but that's one of the reasons why I wanted one, to work on it. Hopefully I will get her up to full potential before the next run.

It was also nice to meet Eugene, John and his wife aswell. See you guys on the next run which will be soon enough, I hope.
