hey guys,

I am currently attending MSU down in mankato, but at the moment I have been taking a semester off in TX. I'll be heading back up to finish the year this summer, so I will keep an eye on this forum. I'll definetly be interested in joining you guys. Let me know what you think.

By the way, I know some guys in Mankato with V8 RX7's if you want they would be interested I am sure.

You should get them to join the forum too!

How does Calhoun sound to you guys? There is a big parking lot on the north side of the lake I know (across the street from Chipotle and the Noodles and Company) which would be good for meeting up. Its right off Excelsior

calhoun is out of the question. rx7's are loud. MPD are ******** and noise violation tickets are expensive.

I'd be more down for duluth. So much better driving around there.

Anyways, by June 6th I should be finishing up the final tune on my holley so I should be down. I'm open to wherever, I'm starting to appreciate the low key look of my car and the especially cop friendly RB exhaust.

Check the classifieds section too.

Has anyone found a good location? Sounds like Duluth is becoming a possibility.

well the rockfalls event i was gonna go too is now postpone, waiting for my parts to come in and my buddys fc is going through its final tuning stages. but hey also working on two fd's at the same time so until my cars done and the fd's, it looks like we might get held back for about a week in a half. so the 169, 62 opus sounds good to me. alot closer for me cause i'm so busy. but hey saw that you guys mentioned rx7's not running, well like i said i do have a rx7 mechanic available that can help out. he's teaching me the ropes as we speak. plus you have to check out his fc its nice minor sunroof cancer but nicer than my all stock running full boost fc. lol i'm serious full boost.
