$25, sorry. List making is not my strong suit.

as long as you share our belief that the rotary is far superior to your piston engine.

Oh I do, trust me. In my perfect world, I'll keep my Miata and have an FD in the garage.

Are FD's as hard to find in Kansas as I'm expecting? I'm almost mentally prepared to drive several states away to find one.

I had to go to Dallas/Ft. Worth for mine. Be patient and find a good one though. Travel if you have to, it'll be worth it.

Cars are secondary, here's hoping everyone down in KS/MO area is alright after the storms.

I figure the gas prices will be off-set by the cheap BBQ and beer.
Just 30 days out. Still looking forward to this.

I don't care. But you have to park a long way away and not talk about your car

If you all remember I asked earlier about coming out to the BBQ with my Miata just to drool over all the rotaries.

Well, a lot has changed in the month since then. I went ahead and bought a rotary of my own, the kind with twin turbos.

I'm definitely looking forward to this. See you all there.

Is it the montego blue one that sits in the KU parking lot off iowa all the time????

FD's are scarce in this town man, what does your car look like?

And what did you do with the miata?

Anyone know the address to the park? My bro and I would like to join in and knowing how to get there would greatly increase my chances of coming along.

It's a red touring. I've seen that MB FD in the KU parking lot too, don't see it around too often though.

I'll be doing good if it's running by the day of the BBQ. If been having... issues with it.

The Miata is my daily driver. Solid as a damn rock, and I'm coming to appreciate it more because of that.
