Jason, I am sorry. It was like 2 in the morning and I was cross eyed. Another reason I signed off, I would have made a big fool of myself telling the wrong guys off and not making any sense whatsoever! LOL!

He was saying that the visual will be gone soo as well. No emissions check at all, just safety. Not that it really matters. Im going to just put a cat on for inspection then pull it.
Anybody got a loose cat sitting around?

i think yall mised eric and josh's points completely...
dont let this turn into a flame war that pisses people off though, you dont want to alienate anyone from the group over something silly.

Unless we see a miracle tomorrow he isn't going to be in any shape for a drive.
Not to mention none of you need to get infected!
I posted on our forum but in case nobody sees it,
I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Wonderful New Year!

THAT is the most embarrassing part of this whole mess.

RRDI NC Cruise...
Hey all, I just wanted to throw this out there. But is anyone up for a morning drive next Saturday or Sunday? It is supposed to be nice next weekend and it would be good to see everyone after the holidays. Plus, it's New Years! Maybe Bert or Gary have a secret route we haven't been on yet! Anyways, just post up if it sounds cool.

A Big Shout Out of Thanks toTurbo II...
I want to give a Big Shout Out of Thanks toTurbo II...
...for transporting my tires to and from the recent Chin Motorsports HPDE at VIR... not to mention all the help with getting the old Kumhos mounted on the car, keeping the car ready... and generally helping keep me straightened out... ;)
It allowed me to find out for sure what I wanted to know about the Kumho MXs I've been testing out... since the amount of track time I'd gotten on them the previous weekend hadn't managed to do it, without having a chance to run them this event, I wouldn't have gotten the final results until next year (if at all), and would've had considerable extra effort and hassle...
As it turned out, the final results became apparent pretty quick and enough track time to ensure there wasn't anything left...
Old MXs never die... they just fade away... and will wear ones **** out while they do... ;)
Thanks Amigo...

Speaking of classics pics, a few of us watched Gone in 60 Seconds (1974 Version) and there was a Mazda Dealership scene fly by in it. Here's a few Screen Caps:
Rotar Sales prop:
I beleive an RX-2 on the sales floor (at least Tail lights and body styles match some google images I researched)
I beleive an RX-3s on the sales lot (at least body styles match some google images I researched) They had a closer shot of the RX-3 on the sales floor but too many people standing in front of it to get a goood screen cap.
