Some of the guys do have CB'c also (miata club) So if you have one there is no harm in bringing it.

Thank God for Mappoint!!

Later,
Neo, did you do all the pace notes or just the section given to you? I was able to show Mr zoom the area around here and the map directions, but im unable to make one up to read for the people.

Well it was great meeting all that met at #5 and Walkers Saturday afternoon. Unfortunately I was unable to go down to Niagara for the ride, but I had other things that were scheduled. I will try to make it to the next meet.

twofingers, thank you for looking (listening) to my GSL-SE. I was glad to hear that it is ok.

Hope the rain didn't get to the ride.

Another eventful cruise!!!

Big thanks go out to nsf05 for letting me be his navigator for this cruise!!

It was an official meet!!! As usual... We had people lost, people's cars not running right, and even a close call situation with nsf05 and Biohazard!!
Thankfully everyone survived the Niagara cruise..

Apologies go out to the small group of guys who were left behind at the restaurant... You know how impatient RX-7 people are.. Still no reason to leave you high and dry...

Mr. Zoom, Hopefully this won't be the last year for this cruise... But we understand if you decide to let someone else manage the cruise in your place..

Can't wait to see some of the pics and vids some guys took!!!

Hopefully we'll have another small meet just before the season is over...

Thanks everyone... See you next time...

Later,

Thanks everyone for coming!

no broken car(s) this year.

2 spin outs, one with very minor damage.

I'll keep an eye out for dunville track for next year....

Anyone got a pic or video when everyone stops and watches that cruiser going downhill?

i'm about to head back from Niagara Falls now. couldn't get a hold of Shawn (Mazdabation) last night, although i did drop by that meet in the No Frills parking lot around 10:30. couldn't find any RX-7s there, but there were quite a number of nice cars.

anyways, i really enjoyed the cruise, except for getting lost and almost killing myself a few times. and then of course being left behind at the restaurant...and then not being able to find any 7s last night...


oh, and that white FC in the ditch, it's not mine.
although the owner of that car would like to thank IAN, his brother, eViLRotor, and RXciting for helping him out...

Like I said before coldfire you're hardcore. One has to be seriously dedicated to drive down from Pembrook to Niagra! That's nearly the same ordeal of a trip as when Cake and I went to Revolution. I'm pissed off for you, that you didn't get to do more.

thanks for the support Snrub, lol.
yeah, i figured i might as well give it a go, partly to see if my car could make it and partly to get the know some people better. the first was a success (more or less, my tranny is still making weird noises and that other little *incident* left some bruises). as for getting to know people better, that partially worked out, but it was good when i actually WAS talking to people. anyways...i think i proved i am pretty hardcore in my first year of owning a 7
oh, and it's Pembroke, btw


yeah, don't worry about it Shawn, i actually figured as much, since my cell phone has pretty crappy reception where i was at. so then i tried to give you a call, but there was no answer. although i did go through the parking lot twice, maybe i didn't see you guys.
thanks for trying though.

No problem. guess we were lucky to be behind to see you. Anyhow come on down anytime. I know what it feels like to live up in that area and having to drive all the way down for meets. I lived up in that area for 4.5years! All the kilometers on the car is from that insane distance!

Thanks for those people who organized the event on Sat. Rich, You are THE MAN! It was a great run with a lots of RX7. I was there at the last year event but couldn't finish the run since one Miata broke down. Anyway, glad that no major incidence this year.

Glad to know a few RX7 guys. Sorry couldn't remember your names. Maybe I have been sucking too much fuel riched exhaust from following you guys too close at the back. Anyway, one of the guys was asking about the Mazda Rotary emblems as shown as below.

FYI, these are custom made hand paint metal emblem with 3M backing. For more info, please visit us at www.emblemhouse.com.

PM me if you are still interested. I can give you the Canadian pricing.



or More
