Originally posted by clean85owner I got a chance to the 787B race when I was (counts on fingers) 5 and 6 years old. We had a race in downtown New Orleans called the Grand Prix Du Mardi Gras, and they had everything from second and third gen 7 race cars to the 787B and the 333SP. It was insane. We have a bunch of pictures in photo albums. I remember after the 1996 race, we were leaving, and while walking through the food court, my dad grabbed a table sign for the Grand Prix Du Mardi Gras. I said, "What do you want that for?" He said, "You never know, this might not be bck next year." Sure enough, the race has never returned... Man, I wish I would have been older to remember it better. I barely remeber a lot of it, but one of the things I remember most was looking out of the side of the parking garage at night and watching a pair of race prepped third gens (team cars) coming down a straight with their brake rotors glowing red, braking for the next turn. You see, I've been a rotorhead my whole life. Man... Fond memories... -Bern |
Blah. It was a 3 rotor LM ctype ar. Sorry. Close enough to the 787B. Heh. Don't worry, you haven't killed any memories...

Already got my reservations, got an Ex that I'm still real good friends with up in Thousand Oaks, where I stayed last time, I get free room and board, and get to use her car :)

!! Something I haven't thought of! Are our cars stuck in the area all day, weekend, whatever? If so, can I go hang out with some of y'alls? (Even thought that was the plan anyway)
I didn't think about that :P I love rotaries, but all day in one place is sort of iffy to the jay. Peace |
yes, once ur "IN", you cant leave the compound until around 3 PM.
