I think maybe you should "liberate" the other Rx-7 in the back ground.

Yah, those pics are after i got it home, so thats rex0r in the background... you can see my wagon in front of it..

Sorry about the huge pics, i didnt have much time for resizing and such, plus there better detail. not that we need that..

Well even that story, thats not as bad cause some guy was just drinving it, and it was an "Accident", as opposed to these fuc*king renecks.

Reminds me of "Danger to Ourselves and Others" from the MST3K episode "Attack of the Giant Leeches"

Goes like this:

JOEL: Bring it down there, Gypsy. Ya know, Silas, it's not easy being a social misfit and then getting the added responsibility of dragnetting the swamp for missing townsfolk. And I can't even button my own shirt.

TOM: Yeah, I hear ya, Gunther. Now isn't it amazing how we inferior types keep getting asked to do the dangerous work which should go to men more stable than us? Really is a miracle! He huu! Hooter?

CROW: Uh, duh, yep! Uh wagnets. Hahaha.

JOEL: Whadda he say, Silas?

TOM: Well, I think what our bright young friend's trying to say here is the reason we three goofuses are asked to do these hazardous tasks outside the perimeter of normal society's rationale is, we're a danger to ourselves and others.

[music starts]

JOEL: Hu da! Kinda reminds me of Darwin's theory of Natural Selection.

CROW: Yeah! If you're dumb--ya DIE!

[all laugh]

TOM: That's, I say, that's a rich one there, Hooter!

Oh, I'm a danger to myself and others.
My cousins are as close as brothers.
I stay out in the rain all the time!

CROW: He's a danger to himself and others.
Only likes shows with Sally Struthers.
I can't even think of a word that rhymes.

TOM: Ya just did!

JOEL: How dumb are you Uncle-Dad?

TOM: Well pretty dumb, that's for sure!

CROW: How dumb are you Uncle-Dad?

TOM: Well this pipe's filled with manure!

ALL: We're a danger to ourselves and others.
Screw the earth and steal our mothers.
Leave us in the woods and we're just fine.
We're a danger to ourselves and others.
Good livestock with better lovers.
Hunting leeches is what we call a good time!

[Joel throws dynamite.]

BOOM! BOOM!

TOM: Oh Boy! I'd like to shake hands with any Giant Leeches after that.

CROW: What? The dynamite or that crappy song?

TOM: He he huee.

What is the difference between rednecks shooting up an RX-7, and kids buying them and the first thing they do is "rip out the rats nest" because it doesn't make sense to them?

So youre saying they performed a simple, inexpensive mod for weight reduction, slight HP increase. and more room under the hood?

This may sound mean, but all the stupid people out there with absolutely no common sense are killing evolution in our gene pool.
Evolution for man ended long ago. Creatures evolve to be better suited to living in given enviroments.

Technology has replaced evolution.

As for the topic, sad story. :\

I get a lot of those types around here. Performance to them is a tractor that can make 3 bails per minute. I remember chemistry teacher back when i was in high school...
I was sitting there and we were learning about double helix's and amino acids and stuff and these 2 idiots to my left of me who stunk like cow **** and always had hay in their hair said:
"Der der... this is a gosh derned waste teacher!"
My teacher stopped what he was doing leaned over next to him (he was in the front row) and whispered to them, "The nearest waste i can find is the genetic waste that you two call your family."
The teacher said it because the two farmboys didn't do anything except scratch their heads as they tried to gain a combined IQ of either one of their waist lines. But ME, i was the only one who heard it and oooo **** i about pissed my pants i was laughing so hard.
The teacher was afraid i might tell a principal or someting so he said "Zach can i see you after class..." so after class he comes up to me and says, "So... ur not gonna say anything about this are you?" and i looked him right in the eye and said "Mr. Thibault, the only thing i have to say about the most degrading, disrespectful, unproffesional thing that you said in the classroom today is:
Amen."

Oh yeah... two pounds, no HP, and what "room" does it add...

Either way it's bastardization, IMO. Either way, it's one less car that will be around to be enjoyed long after the zip-heads move on to their next thing they find interesting.

what would make somebody want to do that? sounds to me like they have a superiorority complex, and if they dont understand something that they just destroy it beyond understanding. ******* idiots.

Speaking of wrecked 1st gens, I don't know if you've all seen this story, but I thought it was interesting.

http://www.goingfaster.com/spo/pbthing.html
This guy in this story is full of ****. Two blowouts on the same side at the same time. Yeah, imaybe, f you didn't have the right pressure, maybe, but I doubt it. How bout I was driving to freaking fast on a wet road at night and wrecked my car like a dumbass.

I know I have done the same with a 72 Olds cutlass when I was 16, but I said I was a dumbass and slid off the road. never blamed it on the ole blown tire theory.

....my 2 cents
