We are in our 6th year of regular first Tuesday meets, plus a few years of irregular ones before that.

Haven't missed a first Tuesday yet and plenty of weekend all-day meets and mountain runs over the years

Always changing personnel and cars, but the atmosphere remains the same and the waitresses are always beautiful.

And these days, the 10 Rotors rule. Old Guys indeed.

Hey Transam, where's your 10 Rotor anyway? You should have received it back in February.

Not sure, that's Alex's FB. The puddle might have been there before he parked it though. Alex was back at his first meeting after getting shot last month in a robbery attempt. It was good to see him.

That's Alex on the left:

Robert came over from Alabama in his prize winning white SA. He's the original owner and has totally restored it over the years, incredible car.

Geraldo, on the right above, has a new project in that vintage white Mazda 626, destined to have a 12A installed soon, he says.

I was really impressed by that tornado gray FC too, Lee finally got it out of the garage and back on the road after talking about it for years. First time I've been seriously tempted by a second gen.

Ray - Apparently the 5/10/15 yr badge doesn't automatically update for mod's/admin. I've been meaning to pm Mar3 about it. thanks for the reminder!

One of these days I'll take a day or two off and drive down to GA for one of these meets. I won't get full 12a credit since it's "just" a 13bt but oh well

Roberts SA is one of my favorites, glad it's running well for him.

Hmmm looks like coolant. I went to the gas station after the meet and checked my fluids, everything was fine. Must have been there before.

Red leather is a siren song to Ray even if its in an FC.

Wish I could have made it down there. Good meet.

If you start looking too closely at Roberts car, you start to realize that your life is worthless, and you can never achieve such greatness.

When I saw his car at DGRR (always miss it at the B3R because I'm lame) , I was blown away by the interior in particular. It is that nice.. Plus he's running a 13B and has the RE-speed R&P swap. Makes me weep a little each night :-) In my opinion, the perfect RX7.

Robert's original owner white SA is an inspiration for my current project the White One II, an 84 GS that will be GSL'd.

It wont quite be the classic example Robert's got, but mine will have one distinct advantage: A 12A with a Nikki. No 13B's for me.

Here's some more shots of Robert's beauty

Those pictures don't do it justice, they were taken after dark and Robert hadn't put the spit and shin on the engine bay lately. I'll get some better ones next time.

I like what he's done with the tail light section! Very clean car for sure.
