How do you represent your rotary pride?

I know we have a ton of rotary pride in these forums, so how do YOU represent?

Here's how I do (a little cheesy, be warned):









EDIT: I just thought about it and I might have posted this in the wrong forum. If need be, mod please move!

I beg to differ. I think that mentality is a little snobby, considering some people don't have the luxury of spending tons of money on their RX7 or whatever rotary powered vehicle they have. I think as long as the passion is there, it shouldn't matter what condition your car is in. If you love your rotary, you love your rotary.

Locals keep getting pulled over in their rx8's.

Dedicate your rotary love by NOT ******* speeding on public roads and giving the cops a profile of us rx owners.

If you have an rx7 and DONT spend tons of money on it, it's because it's stored in your garage with boxes stacked on top of it and a nice thick coat of dust covering the paint and interior......

Either that or it's a piece of ****.....

It's not snobby, it's the truth.

People who are passionate about cars will always have a clean car, or try to. If its a work in progress, thats fine.

If your gonna work years for your car, or talk alot of game, better come up with a clean car to represent that hard work, otherwise you pretty much dam wasted your time and gas money pushing that busted rx7 around. Im not saying that towards anybody, but ive seen people do that because they decided to make a certain car their everything.

I had a friend who swore oldass toyotas where the best cars in the world, but when you see his cars, they look like crap and are falling apart/not running. So if your gonna rep that, at least have some decent whip to back it up.

I wear the rotary shirts I got during my trips to Sevenstock and various car shows. I've recently added a rotor patch to my Domo-Kun hat.

I'm seriously having trouble understanding this post. Please clarify.

You mean to say that the people that purchased FCs that were taken care of and they take care of themselves can't have rotary pride because they don't spend copious amounts of money on them just because they don't need to?

All I'm saying is: just because you DON'T spend retarded amounts of money on your car (respectively, of course, depending on financial standing and priorities), that one can't have pride in owning a rotary?

It is snobby to hate on other rotary lovers because they're not as fortunate, are too young to understand how to properly fix a car or don't have the means to; but truly want to.

Yes, it is the truth that some people store their cars and/or never properly fix them to specs that are considered "acceptable" (objectively). However, it is also EXTREMELY ignorant and snobby to hate on them for being as such.

I created this thread to promote rotary pride, regardless of what shape it takes. Not to shut it down and call it invalid .

Please keep the thread constructive, aside from condescending. There are people with similar desire that aren't as fortunate as you have been.

What about younger kids who are passionate and don't have the money? Older people who don't have the time cause they support their families? They have the want and passion and will probably talk game but are unable to show their own efforts, due to things beyond their control.

No reason to hate on someone's beliefs or inability.

Not everyone can buy a fixed up FC, throw some paint on it and call it their own. Then proceed to rep it as a bad *** FC RX7.

I drive my 7?

Seriously though beat up or not, you know the people who love their rotary vs the people that don't. Still, though why even argue about it?

How I rep my rotary pride? I wear any rotor gear that I have whenever I can. I drive the 7 wherever I can and keep it running clean. I show people how reliable a wankel can be.
