I wont be able to make it either, hope you guys have a good time. On a better note, the car is almost ready to drive. Pulled the codes today, the TPS was a bit messed. Fixed that, idled pretty well but something was wrong with the Thermostat. Not a big problem. Maybe She'll be at Orleans next wednesday.

And yes, dont forget to take pics. Have fun. Dave

I didn't get a pic of that dead animal carcass that you ran over on the on-ramp though! I just missed it and when I looked back I saw you clip it. It got good air.

My camera has been acting up, so I did't get as many pics at the show as I wanted. I'll try post some more.

Where were you???????????????

Just got back from vacation.

I spent from 1 - 3 p.m. walking every square inch of the town looking for you guys and saw one 1st gen driving around town - that's it. Then I waited for the parade, and no RX-7's. We had our boat right along the roadway wall.

By the way the Lotus, belongs to a guy my wife works with. She got to sit it it and was offerred to drive it (but she can't drive a std. trans.) Unfortunately, I didn't get the same offer.....

It has a 225hp Honda VTEC and weighs just voer 1600 lbs.

We were in behind the "Fiero Nation". If you're walking up the main street, we were on the left at the bottom of the hill.

In the first pic, we would be in behind thr white tent on the left. There were about 8 Rx7's there.

I'd have loved a ride in that exige!

Gurgling salt water after wisdom tooth removal is the BEST taste EVER!

I remember when...

You poor young people!

I have to go back 25 years to remember the joys of wisdom teeth - NOT.

They gave me a painkiller that's now banned - called DARVON. Hmmm, maybe that explains some things .Comes in right under Demerol. Gooood stuff!

The best is when they are impacted and they have to cut your gums before they can pull them out, and sew them up after. best part is picking food out of the holes were you teeth used to be once you start eating again.
