I think we need the Navy guy(s) to come to another meet! Sailors are wonderful.

Anyway, thanks for the compliments, Bert. It's nice to be appreciated while my David is still on deployment.

the "poser" t2 is mine lets just clear one thing up though... its got a t2 hood only because its aluminium and i could ot find a aluminium na one in time. and im also considering a t2 swap this summer. so im not trying to look like a t2, thats just how it worked out.
it really was a good meet tho. alot of nice cars and that turbo'd convertable too!

well count me out for deals gap as of now...

went to a local meet tonight in Deltona and was following some races when all of a sudden i feel a lil shudder and my car turned into what sounded like a subaru....I knew as soon as it happend what had just happened. Rear rotor has little compression on 2 faces and one good face. so I believe I may have only cracked a seal. But never the less this will be my 5th rebuild in the past year and Im getting tired of this. I dont have money to keep dumping in this car and Im going to be either selling the car or parting it out. and I dont think ill be able to make it to the dragon now.....since i have no car and Ill prolly just get depressed being there.

On a positive note though I have a friend here who has a 93 R1 for sale that Ive been lookin at for a while now and I think ive aked him down as low as he'll go with it. sooooo MAYBE i might be joining the FD crowd....if I can get a loan.....

geezuz, who is rebuilding your engine, or tuning it? If you have blown it 5 times this year, something is not right!

HAH.

I didn't paint my car, though. It wasn't my choice to do a half-*** job on the paint. The previous owner was an idiot. By far.

But I do recall him putting the TII hood on the N/A by choice.

So blah. I just thought it was funny.

Sad! I wish you could be there! I understand why you wouldn't be coming, though. If my car's not ready, I'm not going either.

Good luck with the FD! That's my next goal.............

Argh! The GSL-SE got me in trouble again!

I was taking her out to get some gas, and warm the engine a bit since I was planning on changing the oil today. On the way back, a cop gets me, and gives me TWO speeding tickets and two running stop signs. I was guilty of one speeding offence, but not two. The stop sign running were "california rolls" on streets that had no other cars but me on them. Not to mention the cop wasn't behind me then, so how would he know what I was doing?

The ticket is for 47 in a 35. The 35 mph road in question is a 5 lane road that if you actually do 35 in, you will probably get hit by other cars doing 45.

Oh well, that's the price of driving an RX-7 sometimes

Yeha i feel you pain... they do that around my school.. 4 lane width road wiht 2 lanes painted on it, and speed limit is 25... you have to ride the brakes to go that speed.

but this is cop ticket month, so everyone be extra careful now.. the cops are out in force looking to hand out stupid tickets, esp for speeding (even like 5 over)

and haha big bird better be ready.. you have to go so i can show all you doubters (ESP YOU) that t/a's are the dump trucks you describe them as

Yeah, you've got that right, redneck. After the ticket, I drove to a little hamburger joint on the same road I was speeding on, and I think I saw 4 or 5 marked cop cars and another 3 or 4 Crown Vics that were probably unmarked in the 15 minutes or so I was eating. Typically you can drive all over town and only see one cop car ever. I was doomed, DOOMED!

I knew the cops were out in full force this month... especially the NCHP. But... thanks for the heads up.

I can't afford any tickets on my record right now. I gotta get over the 3 years of experience hump first.

OK... fine. For you wiener heads... who are too lazy to go to the other site... I'll be the bigger MAN (haha) and put the info on here...

We will be exchanging cell phone numbers and getting the mansion's phone number later this month. Please sign up for a day, so we know who is leaving when.

We will also decide later this month on group leaders for the Friday group. I don't mind being that leader. Unless someone else would like to take charge.

Copy/Paste the stuff below and add your screenname/first name under the day you are coming.

Thursday Group:

1. Johnyzoom - Johny
2. Turbo II - Greg






Friday Group:

1. PerkyStina - Christina

Details about the time and location of departure are still a little scetchy...but myself and the group on Thurs. are looking at leaving as ealry as possible that morning, but that could change. The group on Fri. is still up in the air about when they are leaving. I'm sure things will come together as we get closer to leaving for Deal's Gap. Hell, we're still 5 weeks out, plans are probably gonna change ten more times. Just tell everyone to stay tuned, that's best they can do.
