CA n00b in Nor Cal

Hello everyone, my name is Jeremy. I live up in northern California. Been into cars for as long as I can remember. Drag racing is my specific interest and lightweight import chassis are fun to make fast. My favorite RX7 would be the FD platform. These cars look super sleek and I've always got a lazy eye out for a good deal on a chassis to build on. They aren't too common which makes finding that great deal a challenge. Been though some other threads on here already. Lots of cool builds, nice cars both classic and modern and a great place to become more familiar with the FD RX7's. My current Mazda is an old '77 RX3. Found it by accident but it's a cool little car. I'll put some pics in an album if anyone wants to check it out.

Eh, it's pretty cumbersome to post the pics on the phone. Here's the link to my member album. Custom RX3 from the 80's as you can see by choice of mods. I came across it in a body shop where it sat from '83 to '13 when I picked it up. 30 years of dust and all. Washed it up, vacuumed it out and found a pretty near little car under it all.

They did. Lol. Had three of the wires on it when I picked it up and the spare steelie. Old guy wanted the wires back and I needed some rollers. They were free and fit due to the body mods.
