spill the beans

Ok people. I need to know who was going down I4 Sunday night racing. I got a pic of the car but have not loaded it on my computer yet. It was a primered and yellow first gen racing a what looked to be black first gen with a body kit. I was in the car driving beside you all the way to polk parkway.

If I lived in the area I would say sounds like me but little far away, and the colors and all are wrong.

That might be me Mark, The White One is now frequenting the Atlanta interstates. But I wasn't racing, just doing my usual 80-85. Did it look like this?

Nope, I don't go that far west in Atlanta (I75), too much traffic! Also I've got my exhaust tune down to an acceptable grumble and I don't remember seeing your red RX7 with the body kit, if that's the one you were in. Did you get that thing fixed yet after the rear end episode?

No... i'm spending the mony on getting other parts of the car fixed. I will pick up a bumper when i get ready to paint the outside... i'm hoping that if i can get away with doing the body work myself.. ie grinding out the rust and replacing the doors some time in dec or jan hoping to finish that up then will get the bumper for the car and have it all painted. but taking the 1100$ and buy shocks and struts and bushing that are in much need of being replaced instead of buying a bumper.

Talking with someone don't rember off hand about a bumper off of an 85 that will match up and will just have to pay shipping for it. but that is still in the works right now also. who know maybe will find one around ATL here for next to nothing also.

Sorry about the thread Hi-jack
