This must be very old. I remember that car sold at LAmotorcars here in Dallas many years ago. Hard to believe it made it all the way down here...

That was around 2002:

Nah, I think it gives new members more exposure to some FD history.....this one is particularly valuable because Gordon's old VR FD was one of the first single turbo setups around.

I remember after he sold it, Lance took it out on motorsports ranch for an RX-7 roadracing day.....car looked great, I think redbaron here on the forum ended up with it

wow..thats news to me. i thought he always just had that NA 3-rotor

Exactly, there is a TON of history that most don't know about.

Funny to see some of the still-active oldtimers posting in that thread like Fritz, Ernie and Keith from KGParts. Also AARotary, who was one of the original bigtime scammer/thieves out there. Somehow I missed posting in that thread, that was just after September 11th and my unit was mobilizing to prepare for deployment......

Just to underscore the *ahem* longevity of my buddy Gordo, I found this old post:

That was certainly a fun day! I think the highlight of the day was getting to see that car in person. We certainly had all the DFW rotary royalty out that day.

Saw that car last, with Chris at RP, about 2 years ago.
They were fixing some over heating issue.
I never owned that car and still have my R1, that I purchased from a lady in Plano(original owner).

Wow very interesting. I like seeing the history behind some of the members. I never knew of that car. Just Gordon's current 20b.

Think you caught some flak for the chromed out ashtray in your current car too.

620Hp back in '99, had to be a standard setting car.

iTrader: (3)

what did you end up dynoing on the 20B na? I wasn't expecting more than like 300 to the wheels...

Rich, thanks for confirming my statement.

I remember sitting in that car when Lance had it for sale... Very nice car. I miss the good ol' days... :\

Vintage Red Touring

Was this the MSR event were Damon B's engine caught fire? There were so many nice RX-7's at that event, but I think I remember seeing Lance with this car
