I'm from Somerset and I drive a 88 rx7

 

Im from Owensboro ky. theres a coupe of 1st and 2nd gens here and lots of 8s.
i drive a black rx7 88 gxl.
Good luck trying to get many people to respond been there and done that lol

 

There's a couple of us in Ruchmond. I've got 2 1st gens, an 83 Turbo and an 85. My friend has an 88 Rx7 Anniversary Ed w/an FD swap. A few other FC's and 8's but nothing major.
There are plenty on here from KY, but for some reason most won't post up.

 

maybe it will start to change lol

your on drivelex as well aren't you? I believe I have seen your username on there

 

Yeah I'm on there.

 

im in ky now. 95fd in richmond. JUST blew it last weekend

 

aww hate to hear that for sure, hope you get it up and going soon

 

Heading there right now to start getting the motor out. If anyone in the area ever wants to help, I'm buying lunch! Lol, but seriously, lol

 

Hello from Campbellsville have an 88 GTU purchased new from Alton Blakely in Somerset. Sitting in storage with 70k on it, just like it rolled off the showroom floor.

 

I'm still floating around. However, the numbers in Louisville have dwindled. Mike, are you doing DGRR this year?

 

here in E town still.

 

I'm up north, right across the river from Cincinnati. I have an '81 RX-7 among others. I don't usually spend a lot time on here because I'm busy with my other Mazdas. That should be changing soon as I now have an incentive to get busy with her restoration.

I don't go too far afield because my work keeps me away from home about half the year, so the wife likes me staying around. There's quite a few RX-8 and Miata owners around me and they get together occasionally.

 

here in louisville, driving a 86 fc3s na. any meets or clubs in this area?

 

Checking in from the Louisville area. 10AE on jackstands. Tranny and clutch going back in tomorrow if I can bear the heat.

 

I have a mint gslse with 76k on the dial. In louisville.

 

i am in louisville too.we should all get together. i was driving by indiana and past a real nice 1st gen. i dd an 82 and building an 84

 

Hey guys I'm from madisonville Kentucky. Just bought a 1993 rx7 and driving the hell out of it lol. Used to Hondas so this is new for me but I love it and can't wait to start really getting extreme with the engine as well as everything else. Problem is there are no shops in the area that will touch the car much less be able to build and dyno tune a car. Does anyone know of any shops around Kentucky??

 

I am from somerset ky and i have a 93 rx7 for sale. Its costing me too much to fully rebuild. If you want more info on it msg me and i will send you pics and give you my number

 

if you could think of a mutual location and more people show interest this is something that would be pretty cool

 

Are there any tuning shops that work on turbo rotaries in central to western Kentucky....that are good?

It's a track car and doesn't see to much street time with the side exit exhaust that's currently on it. Maybe a new exhaust for the spring or summer time so I can take her out on the town......

 

Always possible I might have my FD back on the road by next spring or summer. Not likely, but possible.
