i am pretty sure it was a NA S4. all i saw was the busted rear window, but i think it had the S4 tailights. 99% sure. probably broke down and some ******* threw a brick or something through the rear once the owner was gone. I went down for Reel Big Fish, this past tuesday-wednesday so it has been at least a week.

Can't wait til Saturday... this is gonna be a lonely Saturday. The boyfriend isn't in town, so "Lindsay" is my significant other for the evening.
Does my car count as a blonde, or a bottled blonde, since she was originally a redhead? LOLI love redheads. I'm kinda partial.
I just don't like red cars that much. Fades too easily.

But you'll have all us rotorheads around and all our cars to keep you company on Saturday. What do you need a boy friend for?
Oh by the way for all drivers interested, I found this info on the SCCA website:
SCCA Club Racing Announces New Entry Level Track Program
TOPEKA, Kan. (Feb. 17, 2005) - The SCCA Club Racing Department has announced a new way for SCCA members and sports car enthusiasts to compete and experience the thrill of road racing with the formation of the Performance Driving Experience (PDE), part of its new Time Trials program.
The PDE, the first of four levels of Time Trials activities (which range from instructional to all-out, top-speed events at venues from closed tracks to paved, non-track roads), offers a chance to improve driving skills while giving curious rookie enthusiasts a taste of competitive motorsports action.
SCCA Club Racing officials believe the new program will help introduce SCCA Club Racing, and motorsports in general, to people who might not have been on the Club’s radar before.
A breakdown of each level:
“Performance Driving Experience” (PDE) - The PDE is the first level of the program and provides an instructional environment for drivers who want to improve driving skills and increase their enjoyment of driving their street vehicle. PDE is SCCA’s unique version of “track” or “lapping” days.
“Club Trials” – Club Trials is the second level of the Time Trials program. This level combines elements of PDE instruction with the excitement of running against the clock to determine individual class winners. Cars range from street cars to fully prepared race cars.
“Track Trials” – Track Trials, the third level of the program, offers closed-course track time, and winners are determined by fastest time around the course. Cars prepared for both Solo and Road Racing competition are eligible for Track Trials.
“Hill Climbs” – The fourth and top level of the Time Trials program. Hill Climb events offer short-distance, timed events for race-prepared vehicles on paved mountain roads, with winners determined by fastest times.
I like the idea, some of us racer wannabes might have a chance to do a little individual timed event competition.

Hey guys.... I was down near Myrtle TWO weeks ago and saw the SAME car. It's been there a GOOD WHILE, I guess. You can check with the DMV about finding the owner. No, it is not legal to just take it... even if it's been there a long time (though I did have the same idea myself).

Is there any way for you to track it down through DMV? I used to do that, but you have to have a reason, a good one, for them to do it through the tag. Is it a NC tag? Try to go through DMV and see. Is the vehicle in SC?

I thought CarFax checks were always done with the VIN. Checking out this 7 shouldn't be any different. Of course you could always load up the car, then see who comes looking for it ! He might even post on this forum wanting to know if anyone saw his 7 with the interesting rear hatch mod being loaded up and moved out.
You know your a RotorHead if you and your buds spend several K of RAM discussing how to make off with an abandoned RX7 and you're secretly hoping you can beat the other guys there with a rollback or tow bar. :0)

You're at the crossroads of life, ponder this choice carefully, don't take a wrong turn.

Ok... don't be burning down my store, though. I think it's weird that there's three of us working at Advance Autos... and all different locations!! Too bad we can't combine our discounts and get 60% off! Newho, what time is the meet starting tomorrow... and Josh, call my cell!
