Brian from the Northstar Rotary Rockets is hosting a tuning/cookout event on July 16th.

More details are available at: http://www.northstarrotaries.com/for...?TOPIC_ID=1518

Hope to see you there!

 

Sweet. I should be able to make this one. I hape to have my new turbo installed by then. I would like to see by f/r weight distribution with the 3 rotor.

 

You better make it by then. If you need a spare hand in the garage holding wrenches or something let me know.

 

well see if i come to this one... the car still isnt done and probably wont be done by then

 

No offense, I met some of the local Northstar guys around here (between Detroit Lakes and Duluth), and most of them were kinda assish.

But sure maybe I'll show.

 

He's right...we are kinda "assish". Why would anyone take offense to that???

But what does that make someone who disparages a whole group of people on a national chat board aftering only meeting a couple of the members? I didn't even know that we had members that far north...or that anyone between Duluth and Detroit Lakes owned an RX-7. I grew up north of Detroit Lakes, so I know what the terrain is like and the people who drive it. Four wheel drives with gun racks in the back window and coon dogs named Zeke in the passenger's seat ;-) But seriously folks...

Do you think an apology is possibily in order?

(Host of the upcoming event.)

 

Wasn't made to be a threat or anything. But the few local that I've met (or claimed to be it) weren't the kind of people I want to be around, considering I get a headache. There is about 9 RX-7 owners in Bemidji alone FYI. And yes it is hick city up here. Lifted trucks with "GIT R DONE" window decals (which I think are funny). Again I wasn't looking to offend anyone, my first impression wasn't that appealling. I'de delete my post now if I could. Sorry.

Chris

(Good luck with your event)

 

That's cool. C'mon down to the event if you can make it to the big city and talk 7's with some guys who know a thing or two. Every organization has a few bad apples that give the whole group a black eye. I bet even the College of Cardinals have a few nitwits.

Brian

 

Heh, I've met probably 30-40 MN 7 people, and so far noone has been a pain, that includes everyone in the NRR club, even Phil!

That said there's also many different types of personalities, so some might grate on some people.

Anyway, I second Brian's suggestion, come down to the cookout and give it another shot.

 

Like I said, I wasn't looking to start anything. I do apologize. I should be more open about the entire thing. My bad.

 

Rex invited me to the last picnic at Phalen and I showed up for a brief time.
I work till 6:00pm now and I usually go to Porky's Saturday if the weather is good like today.

Anyways I was banned from the club so I probably should not worry about it.

I'm looking to get Steve Kan up here to work on my brother's and my car. If anyone is interested in using his services let me knmow.

Hey guys, I'll try my best to make it. Sounds like a good time.

 

It's going to be a tight one. My header is being shipped monday, and the stuff should arrive before then.. Worst case I can run down with the worn out stock twins.

BTW : OFFTOPIC : Would anyone be interested in my old exhaust setup. I have an Apex GT cat-back, SS resonated MP, and a non-resonated MP collecting dust, Make a resonable offer.

 

i might actually be coming with greg w if his car is driveable haha

 

Ken; you and your brother Ed are always welcome to any event we have far as I know. We do appreciate you guys coming around and miss seeing you since you have a wealth of experience to draw from. Well...except for maybe all the popcorn

Good to hear you are working again as well; happy for you.

My car will not be ready for this event as she's still undergoing cosmetic surgury and depending upon my new house woes, I will try to make it myself.

 

Hey Fellas,
I'm sure that most of you are aware of this, but Car Craft Summer Nationals will be going on at the fairgrounds in St. Paul that day. It an annual event that some of my buddies and I go to. I don't live in Minnesota, but would it be cool to stop by and maybe see some of the cars and stuff? I won't have my Mazda, but I still may be able to stop by if that's ok.

Later,
-B

 

I'd tend to believe that everyone would be more than happy to have you and anyone you have with stop by since you're up this far.

 

Do any of you guys have Rx8club.com access? I used to have a user account but it won't allow me in and I can't create a new one. I think I only posted twice at the most so I may have had it deleted due to inactivity or something.

If you can I'd appreciate it if someone could create a post in the midwest regional forum so we can get some 8 drivers to show up as well. We're all rotary nut-heads so we might as well all hang out together, right?

 

I agree the more the marrier

 

Well, i'll be at a wedding that day, so I won't be able to make it.

 

I reapplied for membership......get me the info !!! :P

 

If I am invited I need to know the details of where and what time periods.
I might be able to attend for a little while.

Thanx,

Ken

 

If this is an evening event then I'll at Porky's viewing all the hot cars that come through from the Car Craft Nationals car show. I'll be there all night.
