$20.00 Total

The book of matches is just in case your RX7 breaks down.......lol
A tow truck would be out of your budget.....lol (Just Kidding)

K Something I forgot about: MY DRIVEWAY.

I can't see the rocks/pavement of my driveway...it's all snow. Thin film but still snow. When I had an Mr2-Turbo it was a trip getting it down the whole thing and out. BLAH!

My car's just a stock MBM FD. The best thing about it is how mint it is, other than that it'l be nothing to look at anyways compared to what else shows up





Yeay!

Mothers Performance Meet

At the meets peak, I would say there were about 30 RX7s and about 10 other cars parked at once all together in the front and rear of the building..... There were about 70 people walking in and out of Mothers Performance..... I think it was a great winter meet turn out.... Sammy Benitez and his staff at Mothers Performance really were on hand to accommodate us the RX7Club.com members with their sincere hospitality.... Sandwiches, sodas, chips and snacks were free for taking...... They really showed us a good time.... Thanks again Mothers Performance!

I also would like to take this time to thank all the dedicated members who traveled near and far to make it out to the meet reguardless of the circumstances . Hopefully we can do it again in the summer time. Soon TwinTurbo93 will post some pictures to accompany this historic thread...

To all those who took pictures, please feel free to add pictures!

Thanks again all!

man, i really wish i could have been there, i think today had to be the WORST day ever!!

i originally took a day off today to go to this meet, i left my house at 10:30 so i can pass by my job, talk to my friend and pick up something, then go straight there..from my job, im getting on a road that leads to the road im supposed to go on but on the other side is a road coming from 495 also leading the the same road im on..so anyway, im on the single lane waiting for it to split into rt3 (3 lanes) so i can pass this slow guy in front of me not knowing whats gonna happen..i finally can see some breakthrough and i wiz pass a shoulder type of road in 3rd gear passing 4 cars and onto rt3..what do i see in my rear view that came from the 495 side onto rt3? A COP!!

im like o sh*t!! and i slow down from an already 90mph to 65 but too late, flashing lights..im screwed..i immediately pulled to the side and got the usual materials ready (license and registration)..as im waiting for him to walk over to my car, i call my friend (who im supposed to meet that was coming with me, an MKIV) to tell him i got pulled over..the cop came to my window and ask me who i was calling..i said my friend and he said NO!!, GIMME THAT PHONE!..that **** actually took my phone!!! i gave it to him and he asked me for license and reg..i gave it to him and he said, "what the ef is the big rush for?"..i said nothing, i got carried away, thats all and im sorry..he said no excuse, then started a 5 min dicussion on racing and cars being taken and whatnot..i wasnt really paying attention, i was still dazed from the whole thing. at the end, he gave me 2 options.he said i could go home and stay out of his sight for the rest of the day or to pay that speeding ticket and continue my way..i said ill go home..he said if i see your car today again, im taking it..i wasnt really sure if that was true but i wasnt gonna test him..so i then left and went home..

about 20 min after i got home, i was like well i can go the meet in the beater? lol but then i thought F*CK!! that **** still has my phone!!! it was a good thing i remembered what town police they were and i remembered the officer's name..i went there, waited in the station for an hour or 2, saw him, got my phone back, listened to another million years of his stories on racing, then went home..

it was already 4:30 after all the chaos..so exhausted, sad, mad, tired and confused on the whole afternoon, i went to my friends house and chilled for a while..then i went to the mall and chilled at another friends house and now im here lol..

sorry i couldnt be there, i saw the pics and it looked like soo much fun..ill def be at the next one, this time with or without a speeding ticket lol

Sammy and his crew where very nice and helpful, I got my HKS flange welded on my IC pipe while I was there. I loved that 20B FC they had there. It was nice seeing everyone again, till next time.

sammy benitez should give you a lot of free **** for getting his shop out in the open. although im not too fond of the guy, cuz a freind of mine, june, how was there at the meet, asked for a tuning quote over the phone, and was quoted 750 dollars... which is a lot to begin with... then when they were finallizing the deal yesturday, he was requoted for 900 bucks. i hope thats not how he treats most of his costumers.

they were however very hospitable with people walkin all over their shops, getting in their garage and getting within touching distance to their project cars. and the food was nice also

Free ****?

$900.00
$750.00 --
----------------
$150.00 difference?

I'm sure there are two sides to that story.... I'm not defending anyone here un like yourself who feels for your buddies pocket.... ( I can definitetly relate to you. He's your boy and you are gonna look out for him!) But don't assume or insinuate that I'm getting "free ****!"

I'll talk to Sammy Benitez on Monday and get his side of the story...Maybe I'll look out for your boy and try to bring his price down...

^^^ I think what cmartinp28 was saying is that he SHOULD give you free stuff for helping him get all that advertising (i.e. getting all those RX-7 people to his place and seeing it)...

The reason I did this meet at Mothers Performance because I thought It would be "COOL" if all you guys could meet this special/rotary innovator/racer/teamUSA member/shop owner and tuner to get up close and personal ("pick his brain")with a person that is in a whole different frame of mind when it come to the engine we all love, have, and want to see continue to be producing reliable and high horse power!.......Also, try and get some discounts for "all" of us in the process..... That is what the club is all about...... Power in numbers!

Well, I will very likely be spending a bunch of money there next month... maybe you can convince him to give me either a nice discount or some nice extras for free...

woah there buddy, i have nothing against you... i actually think you're a hell of a guy for setting up the meet... i meant you should take care of you for whatever you need in the future, cuz no one knew about his shop, and you just put 20-30 performance minded car owners in his parking lot to introduce his shop and put it in the open.

the story with my friend is a completely different story. i was commending you for what you did, and putting sammy down for what he did.
