* Video * - RX-7's on near the beach

We had a Real Nice Miami RX-7 club meet yesterday,
and included a cruise up to the Key Biscayne Beach.

My camerman wasn't available to ride shotgun, but here is
some "in car" footage from my car. It's the only video that
was interesting enough (from this angle) that I had at my disposal.

So Come on, get in, and let's go down the beach in a Turbo FB..

very cool vid man!!! I wish it were in the front window. Being able to see the tach is very cool as well. How well did Outkast keep up? If that light would'a turned red you guys would have had some fun. Good quality and great editing. Some DSM show was going across the I205 bridge here(2 miles long) and I stomed all over a bunch of em with my 626 turbo. good work

Are you suggesting there's no rust in FL? That would be 180 degrees from the truth.

Nothing, They rolled on by. That's why I went in there and parked. They couldn't have seen
anything more than a blur go by. By the time they came by, I was outside the car, looking at the water.

I wasn't worried about it anyway. I just thought it was a humourous ending.

Hey direct, when you hit 125mph in the vid, any idea what you were in the RPM's? You peg 8, and keep going from there.
