I think I could have lived the rest of my life without hearing the "white trash" thing again. What a mess.

On a lighter note, I have a "dsm" type product too; though my Colt rode the big boat over instead of being made in Illinois. I wish it were as easy to get more power out of my 1st gen RX-7's as it is out of a little Mitsubishi motor. Oh well. We all need to get together sometime before it gets much colder. I need an excuse to drive the seven anyway. spoolin93r1, I think I saw your car one time out at the lot in fern creek. You came down with some of the dsm guys from IN. Looked sharp.

Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving,
James

 

sorry about the white trash thing, but you know that's how dsm's are looked at in the area. but you are definately right, that little 4g63 is a cheap power maker. blevins is still runnin stock ecu on his race car and making over 500 whp. that's pretty damn impressive. yeah, that was me in the lot. i woulda stayed longer and chatted, but there was a little bit of drama between some of the ppl, so we figured it better to leave. anytime you wanna meet, lemme know where, i'll be in the area all weekend.

 

we have a little crew of about 3 of us in louisville. 1 FB, one FC, and one FD. just tell us when, and we'll come chill.

 

we should all get together somewhere... i think a few of us are always at auto-x's but the new season is so far away... what about a resturaunt somewhere? or just in a big parking lot?

 

i havent checked this thread in awhile. im game for meeting up when it gets warmer.

 

ditto. and james, its called a turbo. you could be making mad par in the 1st gens with a turbo. ask mike-p, lol.

 

Turbo?? who needs a turbo?

 

who needs turbos?? i do! lots of em. i'm going for a quad setup! lol anyways, yeah turbos are fun for sure

 

Has anyone else noticed the Splurge of 7's in louisville lately? It seems like everytime i turn a corner there's another one. Mostly FC's, but i saw 2 FB's on Southern Parkway when i was driving home last night. One Brown one a block south of Central pkwy, and then later up the road there was a silver one sittin at the BP station. its crazy! WHERE are they all coming from?

 

i've been hearin a lot about more rotary cars showin up down there. on the www.louisvillestreets.com forum, someone said there's a cym 3rd gen runnin around somewhere. i can't wait til it warms up and we can get some cars together

 

ditto. i've been meaning to do some backroad hunting as well. i want something challenging but decent "offs" like a shallow grassy ditch, etc. hopefully in a month or so it will start to get up into the mid 60's.

 

I am not Southern IN, but I am still up for the drive..... as long as you dont mind me driving the beater if the rx7 isnt done yet .

 

hell, james has a few extra 7's if you need to fit in, lol.

 

Hey jeremy, my cars running again as of yesteday (yay!) Ive got to go get it alined and but the bumper back on it.

 

Your just jealous.

 

Good going! If I can be of any assistance, let me know. Do you think you are gonna be autocrossing with us this year? We'd love to have ya out there.

Later,
James

 

I REALLY want to! What do i need to do to prepare? Do i need to register or something?

 

You have a little time before you have to really start worrying about it. I will post the schedule of events as soon as it is locked in. I am on the Solo Board here and it looks like we will have a lot of great events this year. We averaged over 100 drivers per event last year with those drivers almost always getting 5 runs a day. This year, we have two events tenatively scheduled at the airstrip on Ft. Knox and two at Bowman field!! Airstrip autox events tend to be higher speed courses with not much chance of damage should you spin and we are excited to be returning to Knox after a long hiatus following 9-11. Bowman field is a new venue we added last year and proves to be entertaining as well. Add to that all of the events at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium and Churchill Downs, and you start to see why this season is going to be a blast. For more info about our region, go to www.kyscca.org

First event will be in late March or early April.

 

bah! bumpers are weight, just leave it off.

we need to start setting a date for our louisville mini-meet.

 

yeah we do! My step brother just bought a turboII off of a guy in new albany, so theres another 7 to add to the list. I think hes going to autox with us this season. BTW, the kyscca page is down. Do you guys know a generic date about when i the first race will be? I need to set my goals.

 

should be early to mid march.

 

Hey I am down in Glasgow, KY. I just killed my motor, anyone know of a local shop. Well I know there isn't anything real close. I need a referral please.

Black 93

 

i live in lexington,ky and mostly in nothern ky i got a red vert i wunna see some other 7s and get rid of those damn ricers

 

Call A+ Performance(859-623-3454) in Richmond and ask for Big Lou. He's a guru with every gen of rotaries and about anything else turbo'd.

 

Hi all. Just moved back up here after retiring from the military. Looking forward to seeing some of you at future events.
