He said we can leave anytime. It was posted in page 1 I think.

moorishidol 02-21-08 01:31 PM

From Autobacs its just the 22 -> 5 -> El Toro Airbase

fc pro am 02-21-08 01:41 PM

just curious...I kinda like a good drive in large groups of rotaries and was hoping this would be one those moments.

chris_lum 02-21-08 03:48 PM

yes you guys can leave whenever you want.

Brismo7 02-21-08 04:31 PM

i got a grand saved up, think i can get anything nice?

13b_cookie_monster 02-21-08 05:01 PM

^^ you can prolly get a nice shirt.... haha one grand should get you some good stuff at garage sale prices.

Brismo7 02-21-08 06:24 PM

i'm going to get the biggest baddest turbonator i can get my hands on!

POWER AND GAS SAVINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

moorishidol 02-22-08 01:52 AM

I can probably afford a gauge or two (>_<)
Anyone know what the BOVs go for?

Brismo7 02-22-08 12:25 PM

i havent really ever looked into greddy gauges. I was planning on buying a set of the autometer nexus line. Those are pretty sweet.

shineautoproject 02-22-08 05:11 PM

Shit. I got a buddy that needs to be on that list .

MaczPayne 02-22-08 07:19 PM

Man, it's cloudy, and I'm wondering if I should wash my car...

puhpaper 02-22-08 08:20 PM

so, eveyrone's meeting @ autobacs at 6am?

moorishidol 02-22-08 10:31 PM

i'll be there at 6 ^
If anything, the rain washed my car for me (-_^)b
I like the greddy gauges because they match the lighting color pretty good, and at the festival, they'll be at a pretty reasonable price.

ultimatejay 02-22-08 10:47 PM

I might swing by but the forecast calls for hard rain all day tomorrow. :wallbash:

MaczPayne 02-22-08 11:17 PM

I'll probably show up at Autobacs around 6 also. Hopefully I won't be the only one there, lol

SA_RX7 02-22-08 11:43 PM

me ken and note will be there at 6am

Hit Redline 02-24-08 12:59 PM

Wow what an event. Completely disorganized. No one directing you where to go, people cutting in line to get into the main entrance. I paid for a fun run at 12 and they cancelled them after the 11 time frame. Again no instructions on how to get your money back.

On a positive note I was able to meet some really cool guys from the 7club. I was the blue turbo FB guys. I am looking forward to coming out to a few other meets so let me know what's going down.

rglbegl 02-24-08 01:45 PM

So there were rumors of a $500 RX8 turbo kit . .. . . . . . who got it

Yeah, true the Event was very disorganized,I showed up at 7 am and waited waited
for 1hour +.Alot of other car clubs with a dozen cars were trying to cut in front of me
but i kept my cool and cut them out even before they got to the front.

I also was looking for more Rx7s and what ever happen to the list everyone signed up on? There were more other car clubs packed with big crews and only about 10 Mazda rx7 showed up of the 30+ who signed up.It was a big event but only a few of stuck together to represent the Mazdas outhere.

But anyways,we compinsated the short Rx7 club with Rotorious13B Rotary Rx7 drag car, who showed up at the last minute and showed everyone who is the
loudest by doing some Revving demos to all the other Pist-on cars around and shooting some flames to the poeple.HA HA take that.Got to love that.

Hit Redline 02-24-08 05:16 PM

That was bad ass. When you were revving your car people were running, both choking and covering there ears. :rlaugh:

BFGRX7 02-24-08 07:04 PM

I got the $150 intercooler KIT (front mount) for the FD. Soon it will be a V-Mount kit! Great deals to be had.

rotorious13b 02-24-08 07:14 PM

IIRC, this is the 2nd time they've had this event? It can only get better.

It was the first of it's kind....last year was only a garage sale at Greddy's office. Again, it was understaffed, but for being the first time something like this was done, it was decent.

I figured it would be there, but wasn't worth standing in another line. Consider it a donation. Next year you guys should have more Greddy models as well, I only saw one.

chris_lum 02-24-08 09:24 PM

cool, glad you had a good time. A lot of the clubs expressed how it was cool to meet w/ each other and hang out--something i had hoped would happen when i had invited all of you. =)

MaczPayne 02-24-08 09:36 PM

Yeah, I have high hopes for next year, Chris!

I was quite bummed that I only saw one model too.

AcidAngel7477 02-24-08 09:49 PM

I had a good time. Saw some Rx7 friends, Took some pics of some cool cars. I thought the portable Dyno was a pretty cool idea. also the fun runs and the auto x thing was neat to watch for a while. All in all, AWESOME event for the price :D Maybe Next year i can get my car up on the dyno and see what it puts down :)

btw, i think i saw two models. But i wasnt allowed to look at them with the GF by my side :(

Thanks for holding this festival for us. i look forward to it next year.

HAHA the "portable dyno" not really portable considering they were like 800lbs each....

Brismo7 02-25-08 04:58 PM

my car weighs a little under 3,000 lbs its still pretty portable :rofl:

shineautoproject 02-25-08 07:16 PM

What happened to the 40 guys that were on the list man. common.

MaczPayne 02-25-08 07:19 PM

^That's right Ken, rotaries were the minorities there! Even the Preludes started ganging up on us (bastards took our spots)

red_s5_fc3s 02-26-08 09:24 AM

I had class and couldn't miss the first day. Sucks, but that's life. I hope I can make it next year.

chinkst3r 02-27-08 12:24 AM

They are considering it.... Maybe if there is more pressure from the public it would help convince them.
