calgary 7's

am i alone in finding it irresistable to play with other rx7s whenever i should see them?

to the guy in the white s5 "tien"

thanks man,. u made my day..

that makes one red, one white, and im pretty sure the two of us passed another white fc just before 16th on 52nd but he didnt get in line. i rarely see 3 different 7s a month let alone on a slushy dirty *** day like today. cheers guys!

You might see me out on the Deerfoot in my gold 7 - "Champagne Gold Metalic 1A" to be exact - one of only three that i"ve seen in the city so far....trying to dodge around idiots blocking the Calf Robe bridge.....I'll always give a wave if I see another 7 or 8, any year or generation. Rotary Power!

I'm south of Calgary in Blairmore. I'll probably be up there every once in a while with my Black TII. Are there ever meets there or anything of the sort?

Driving down the highway last week I say a really nice red FD and a silver FD 1 day apart. It made me really anxious to get mine.

I've had my '88 base model since '90 and I've owned RX2's and RX3's. If you see a very stock dark metallic grey car (with the odd battle scar) give me a wave. I'll surely wave back. I always notice all RX's. Best thing going with my car is that the original a/c still works.

What part of Calgary do you live in Babbs? (I live in Lakeview at the moment, and there's a car that matches your description in my area)

This may be somewhat off topic, but as a heads up to the calgary people.

I put a sub and replaced the speakers in my FD, through a guy who's able to get the electronics at cost + 5% and installs part time at a great rate. He did a fantastic job, and saved me a bunch of cash to boot. He's also loves rx's, so he's really happy to work on them.

If you're interested in his contact info, shoot me a pm.

well that settles two of them then.. i too have the shiney (well.. mighta been once) gold metallic as well.. and you are right... i dont see many around.. but constantly in junkyards stripped bare :P

i gave up the wave cuz of the tinted windows an some guy with a dark grey fc up near copperfield got me in the habit of just poppin the clutch in an blippin the revs up to about 6k :P

I live in the Richmond area but I play some bball at the outside court in Lakeview every now and then. I've got one rust spot on the car that I can trace back to a hole drilled by Kramer Mazda (1988) to install some mud flaps. I still curse myself for not acting sooner on that spot.

Richmond... We'll be neighbours soon. I'm moving back into Marda Loop on Thursday.

I've probably seen your car. If you park across from the sandstone school, then I've seen it for sure.

Crymson,

It's interesting that you'd make the jump from 'sandstone school' to 'elementary school'. Are you perhaps thinking of that school where all the kids call you "Uncle Perv"?


Shaun
