hey guys , I just wanted to give everyone some new news . I just found out to day that Will who use to be a guru on rotaries was involved a few weeks ago in a major motorcycle accident . He was unconcious for several days and had to have a kidney removed along with other trama . I have tried to call him but his # is no longer active . I got all this info from his neighbor . While he was unconcious , his house was broken into and gutted , they stole everything . His room mates had to move because will was on the lease ????? I not 100% sure of the actual events , but this is what I was told .I tried to call the hospital today but he was released earlier this week .
Just thought some of the older guys on here might want to know !!!

I will be back from my deployment in about 55 days. I ordered a few things while on deployment for my 3rd gen. Im replacing my entire exhaust, ecu, and intakes. So if any one wants the stock parts let me know. I need some time to get some work done when i get home. I have to get a full vacuum hose job done on it as i broke a couple solenoids while switching out some hoses. So i pretty much gave up on that and one of you on here... Forgot the name... I know your name is Chris was going to do the job for me.... Any ways once that is done ill have these parts availale to anyone that wants them. They are free, i dont need them and they are not worth anything to me.
5 spd ECU
Pre Cat
Cat
Air box
There will be many other parts to come over the course of the next year. I also have to get my bumper painted (took out a sign) and im going to remove the stock Fog lights, they are in decent condtion and also free. Let me know something if you want them send me a pm.

I saw another seven last night on 264 at the witchduck exit and didn't know if it was any of you guys.
It was a blue s4 fc with white s5 mirrors and white hood and headlight covers. license plate started with XTN.

Hey yall,
So Ill be back from this deployment in less than 30 days. I have already talked to Mr rx-7 tt about helping me get my FD back in shape when I return. Problem is I meesed up a couple Solenoids while trying to change out lines and The wires that plug into the bottom backside of the UIM came out of the connector(didnt notice I broke that till I started the car) Basically I need thoose fixed before I can even move the car and its at my Buddies house in Chesapeake. If Mr rx-7 tt is unable to make a house call, is there any one else that yall know of in the area that would be able to help me out? Appreciate it fellas.

Hampton Roads Mazda Rotary Car Club August Meetup
Lets get back to the oceanfront on this one. We haven't been to Awful Arthur's lately. It is time for one. An RX8 owner that you all may know, owns the place and really enjoys having car club gatherings at the business. He always treats us well at the restaurant. Directions are easy and we usually make a group driveout to some place else after the meet.

Honestly, it was pretty ******' weird at first. Took a bit longer than I thought it would to readjust. Got a ton of "Welcome Back"s from people I didn't know. Got alot of "Thanks!" from people even though I'm just a contractor. Was it worth it? Sure. I took the fam to Disney, got nice things for the wife and kids... Actually hoping to go back next year. Where are you deployed?
