I used to live on the 1800 block of monument. I'm moving to the 2200 block. Its a two story apt. The living room, kitchen and dining room, and full bath #1 are on the first floor. Two bedrooms and a second full bath are upstairs.

Saw your car near the corner of the 2000 block last sat. Any idea on who has the spec 7 car a few blocks east of you?

Joe, I owe the ebola for what you gave me. Where the HELL did you get that nasty shit of a virus from??

I didn't give ya nothing! Who knows where I got sick, I'm about 90% better now...Just drink a lot of water and sleep about 10 hours a night.

just figured id give this thread a bump before i lost it,but then again it is hibernation season.I just about finished moving in and can now concentrate on getting the 3rd gen the way i want it.I just need money and time off work,and santa to bring me lots of RX toys.

gforce = crack.

i went up there yesterday because for the last 6 months, my girlfriend's mom and her sister have wanted to go, so i bought them gift certificates for one race. i was tempted the race once since i drove all the way up there, but i was by myself and i didnt have the money to spare... im definately wanting to go over the x-mas break though, plus i get my free race in janurary :D

I was there last night, but I couldn't race cause of no money (my friend's raced though.) I get my free race in jan as well. Also getting 8 race pass for xmas, and I might do that all day thing on new years eve or day, not sure which one, but it's 3-10, $75.

~brian

i thought about it.. but dude.. thats $75... thats where it gets to be a bit much.. then think of all the other people that are thinking its a great deal as well.. im sure its going to be packed.

yeah. i'll probably drop by and see how many people are there. if it's not too bad i might do it, but you have a point about it being packed. i'm getting an 8 race pass for xmas anyway, so it's not like i'll need too much of a fix then heh.

~brian

I guess you all got death for xmas.... Anyway, I'm still addicted to gforce like a ho on crack. 23.886 = best time on normal karts. Finally got superkarts, 23.3xx was my best time today (first attempt at superkarting). Man those things are fun. Anyway, I have a question. Do you guys know anyone that could put in my friend's new clutch in the next few days? He needs it done before he goes back to school. Thanks. Btw, if anyone's going to gforce sometime lemme know.

NEW to richmond rotary crowd
 

I just got a 1986 RX-7 GXL. I was wondering if there was like a club/enthusiets type group that met in Richmond. I working on fixing mine up, and wonder if any one knew where a good place to get parts was or if there were any junkyards around that had 2nd gen rx-7s in them.

Joe

Hey joe. The main posters here are pretty much the "club." We don't really do much stuff together, but I wanna change that heh. We're long overdue for a drive/gforce. I myself drive a Mazdaspeed Protege (Hey at least it's a mazda), and I used to drive an 83 rx-7, but I still have it. Most of us autocross with vmsc regularly (or as regularly as possible), especially zach (Zach_McAfee) and Mike (onepointone), and I just got into it. The next one isn't until like march though. Hopefully we can all meet up sometime soon. Have fun with the car!

~brian

re.
 

yeh i wanna autocross this car, but i need to get some new front shocks, i have replaced the rear. and taken off that A.A.S. suspension off.

Brain what color is your protege? There is that shop called spool off of hull st. that does alot of work with those.


joe

hey. My protege is blue. Spool closed down recently. I talked to Terry (saw him on the road and we pulled over and talked for an hour or so) and he said that it was closing shop, moving north, and not doing protege stuff anymore. He wants to get an sr20det 240sx. I went to spool once for a protege meet, neat shop.

So where in richmond are you? I'm off of huguenot near stony point.

~brian

Re: NEW to richmond rotary crowd
 

Yup, you found us! :D

What kind of stuff do you need? Every now and then CAP (chesterfield auto parts-heading east right off of midlo east of chippenham) has a few second gens...you'll always see some first gens around in there. CAP also has another location near Southpark mall in Colonial Heights.

Of course there's going to be some future confusion since we have two Joes now... ;)

I haven't been talking too much since I STILL need a clutch...I had enough cash on hand to buy one then the freaking holidays came around and I somehow managed to spend 7 or 8 hundred dollars in a week...:o:

You taken any pictures of the car yet?

re
 

I'm live in a neighborhood behind woodlake. yeh i went to cap and car yesterday. I foudn 2 1gens in cap, and nothing int car. I'm looking for either a N/A hood (like i have) or a turbo hood with the scoop. Also loooking for a front bumper.

i haven't taken any pics yet. It looks alright to big dents except teh front bumper and hood has some bondo in it, and the blue metallic paint has faded on the fr bumper hood and right fr fender.


joe

woodlake sounds fimilar. is that in chester? im RIGHT behind thomas dale. if you ever want to meet up and go to the junkyard, or cruise let me know.

im with brian, we need to meet up sometime and maybe hit g-force.

Re: re
 

Hey, I used to live in woodlake, what neighborhood are you in? I live in powhatan now (on huguenot trail), but I'm at school for most of the year. You'll probably see me driving around in a black '01 Miata or a green Triumph TR6 when I'm home. This year I'll try and make it to some auto-x's and meets.

I am not a very active member here mostly because I don't have an RX-7... I tend to do more reading than posting. I am still on the hunt for a seven, but I've just been too busy with school and my TR6 lately that I haven't really been looking around too much.

I live off of otterdale rd. thats behind the woodlake place.

I think I have seen you around in that Green TR6. not sure though.
my other cars are a 1998 VW jetta doen alot of audio/video stuff inside of it. The other car is 1977 trans am the smoky and the bandit car but red and no t-tops.

Joe R.

Cool. You probably have seen me, I am on Otterdale every now and then. I have a friend that lives off of otterdale also, on Inchcape rd or something like that...

Hey afterburn, what exactly is your avatar? I see that thing around a lot online...

~brian

As far as I know, its a wallama. Just don't ask what a wallama is...

I don't think anyone really knows, that's the funny thing. :biggrin:

what's a wallama? :p
