I had a damn good time at the Nopi Nationals. It was my first time there but it wasn't as bad as I thought... except the over priced tickets

Anyhow, I want to thank the guys at the www.SpeedForSale.com and it was great meeting new rotary guys.

Hope to see some of you at the next rotary gatherings.

 

Somehow Dave New got 2nd place in the 3rd gen street class.......IT WASNT EVEN THERE!!!!!

 

LOL! I thought I had a chance in street class since there were only 8-9 FDs... instead, a car that doesn't show up wins 2nd place.... and David Gar didn't win either?? WTF?? Dumbass Nopi!

Asian - Sport Coupe - RX7 93-96 - Street
1 DAVID PAYNE MARYVILLE, TN
2 DAVID NEW DORAVILLE, GA
3 BRIAN RABES NEW PHILADELPHIA, OH
Asian - Sport Coupe - RX7 93-96 - Custom
1 TOM BROOKS DULUTH, GA
2 ADAM GOODE BLAIRSVILLE, GA
3 CHRIS OSBORNE SPARTANBURG, SC

 

I think they just picked names out of a hat......luck of the draw....lol

 

Must be... Next year, I guess I'll just show up with my Ford Ranger and see if I could win the RX7 class with it

 

i need pics!

 

I always said that NOPI judging was crap. Here's your proof. Here is the 2nd place car as it sat 25 miles away all NOPI weekend. It wasn't even close to the Speedway. The judges don't look at the cars at all - they stuck a sticker on my bike like they judged it, but it wasn't even in a class.

 

Hence, the reason I never go anymore. The only cars that show up are ricer's, neon and "show" cars. If you want to watch people, party and spend lots of money, it may be for you. I save my money for Petit LeMans.

Congrats David, on the no show win!

Here are some pics..

 

More pics of some rotaries..

NSX is Jay Laub's new show car for BP... so is the green RX7. He said next year he'll be bringing out another FD with the Veilside Fortune kit.

 

Here is a recap of our group at the show, pictures, and awards we won:

See you all next year!

 

Hey Guys, I had a blast meeting all the new folks I had either heard of or had already talked to but didn't know who they were. I think I enjoyed that more than any other part of the show. Special thanks to Jeremy for setting everything in motion for the group. From my understanding, alot of people from our group were award winners and congradulations to all of them, even david with his absent 7. Teach me how you do that, LOL. Pics will follow, if not today, soon. Thanks again to everyone for such an enjoyable weekend.

 

Off topic , but , when is the Deals Gap Rotary meet ??

 

Since you already have pictures of most of the 7's present, here are a few others.

 

The show was ok. That silver turbo vert was nice but that guy is damn near retarted. I think he wanted something like 12k for it. The guy driving the drift FC sucked *****. And theres no way in hell it was fair because all those 240's were modified pretty heavily and he was running stock everything as far as I could tell.

Did anyone happen to be standing around when that black supra started up and revved his engine?

Jay Laub's FD makes me want to Vomit with those 20" chrome badges near the rims and all that mexican chrome trim. What a waste of a good car. If I were a judge I would have busted his *****.

Otherwise I didn't feel like I wasted my money.

 

Its going to be April 13th thru 15th, 2007.

I'm still working on getting sponsors to pay for door prizes and the lunch.

Still FREE to attend.
