Most amazing thing I ever rode in was a 2L Birkin seven copy. Congrats. I will live vicariously through your updates.

Scooter has not been forgotten, but I've had to spend a fair amount of time getting the se7en in order. Only a couple more projects to complete (and Nate's RX7) before I can switch to the OS Giken and spherical swap. The machinist said he would be working on the block and head this week, and they should be receiving a few shims to measure initial lash before I make a full order of them. Should get some updates on the engine in the next couple of weeks though.

It's cool how you guys have some experiences with se7ens too! I hadn't seen or heard about them until I moved to New Mexico in 2017/2018. Birkins can be as good as Caterhams as far as I can tell and sometimes use the same engines. I consider a 180-200hp (any 2L) se7en a fast car. A lively, eager to slide, fast car.
