Ooo good point. The River Valley is always a good drive.

I really think we should just make a date and have ourselves a cook out. The sooner we can set a date the more time people will have to plan accordingly. I'm thinking a saturday in early June? The 6th would be the day after my birthday lol

just pick a date, pick a place, and everything else is easy. Someone just take charge. I would but I am nowhere near the cities and i doubt any of you would come up to fargo.

FunK73,
Depends on the date. My summer is filling up very fast. But we have quite a few rx7 guys up here that could possibly come down.


shrykFC3S,
So far we have this SOB beat! We are supposed to have another crest within the next week so I am not going to speak too soon. My aunt and uncle lost their place and I have head quite a few people lost their basements but not very many within the city limits. Is it bad? No, it just took alot of work and commitment from the whole city. Our Mayor has done an outstanding job. He has made all the right calls.

Hey guys. I've been quite the long time forum lurker, but I have a tendency to only pop in here a few times every few monthes.

Anyway, If it sounds like this june 6th meetup will happen I'd be happy to stop in. My 7 might not be much to look at but I'd be proud to give it the company it deserves.

I'd probably be down for it.

I'm in brainerd and always at BIR, so I could set a date if a few of you guys wanna show up. Only problem is drag racing at BIR is always on wednesday nights.

I'm thinking it would be best to meet somewhere near the metro. Most of us guys are within like 20 minutes of downtown it looks like.

Racing does nothing to trash you car that you wouldn't do on a pull on the highway, unless you really launch it hard. You mean to say that you won't drive your rx7 for a 1/4 full throttle? If so you've got the car for the wrong reason man. My rx7 is my DD too, but that doesn't mean I can't have fun with it.

Room for parking is guaranteed. Grills I'm not sure on. I'll double check this weekend when I'm at home getting my car! =D

Where else is a possibility?

I might drive down. Maybe us grand forks/fargo guys (and girls?) can all head down the same time. Def turn heads with a bunch of 7's cruising to the cities. Though No exhaust might be an issue...

I think rockfalls is a good place to meet up at. We can actaully sit back bbq or what ever and watch cars run. Me and my buddies did that the last time we went. Too bad I was the only rx7 there
