I don't know what the hell happened, one minute the title is in the mail and as soon as I get back from the beach the car is mine, then yesterday I get an email saying that he has decided not to sell the car. So I guess the Red R1 FD won't be mine after all, I am on the hunt again.

Man, if I already had the title in the mail, I'd say forget that, It's mine now, o-O...

Pics from the 8/13 RRDI

It was a warm day for a Drive-In but we had a good turnout and the Pit Crew sat idle during the meet. Here's the starting line-up:
I call this one "In the Beginning . . . "


Here is sinister gathering of aputomotive beauty and power, "Black on Black":


The RX8s were out in force last night, we had a new owner with this sunlight silver 8: J's new ride:


TIGrey was back and beautiful as ever. It was great seeing her and Gary again.


More to come . . . .

THE MYSTERY TURBO!?

So guys i really need your help. Ive got a turbo and have no clue what it is. I measured it with a micrometer today. The compressor wheel measured 60.4mm and the exhaust wheel measured 63.6mm. The exhaust flange measured(from the outside of each bolt hole) 96.6mm width, 55.2mm height, and 107.8mm diagonally. Let me know what you guys think. Here are a couple links to pics of the turbo. Oh, its also an oil only turbo.

I know I'm late in the game... but my boyfriend David (SRT-4 driver) and I (Rx-7 driver) were on vacation to Charleston this week. I just went back and read the pages I missed.

Anyway, his screenname on srtforums.com is my_shorty and on here he's phoenix_flame... if you aren't on srtforums yet, you should check it out. Maybe you two can talk Neons... while you talk rotaries with the rest of us! (He's normally the only SRT-4 at our meets... poor guy!) He's also a Navy guy from Norfolk... so he's only down here on weekends when he's not underway.

He's looking at getting a NICE 88 Vert next summer... so we've finally corrupted his piston brain, too. Haha

Welcome to the rotary family!!

More RRDI Pics

Not to confuse anyone, yeah there were a lot of 7s at the Drive-In as well, here is my favorite shot of the night:



Here is a better shot of the all black Neon, I don't remember if it was an SRT or not:



Here is one I call "Want to Race":



DanielSan brought us his Red 87 FC to admire. Some minor cosmetic scratches and dings, but a very nice car with a lot of potential:



Doug & Beth were present with Shinka, This one is Shinka means Traffic Cone Eater in Japanese:
