VA New '84 RX-7 Owner

Hey club,

My friends call me DC or Soup (last name is Campbell )

Originally from Louisville, KY. I'm active duty Navy Air Traffic Controller, in the Virginia Beach area. Currently stationed on the USS Kearsarge LHD3.

I bought my RX-7 about a month ago, she's a 1984 First Gen, Series 3, sporting the 12A rotary. I have to say, it was love at first sight. Since I was a kid I've always been a Mazda kind of guy, the MX-5 being my all time favorite... until now that is!

She's still pretty basic, I'm the third owner. Exterior is in very good condition for her age, and the interior is nearly flawless.

Anywho, I'm interested in meeting other rotary owners in the area, especially anyone with experiencing fixing and modding. I'm down for joy rides, car shows, or just hanging out talking about the cars... after all, that's what we're here for!
