New to Indiana

Hey guys,
I just moved out here to Terre Haute, Indiana a few weeks ago. Rose Hulman!!! Anyway just trying to find out if there are any other rotary owners close by. Hopefully I'll be bringing my car out to school come November, I need to find a garage for it though (student parking lots are not someplace I want to leave my car). Maybe i'll see you at some local events!

Not sure of any in TH, but there are a few of us in Indy and you are probably only 45mins from the westside of town.

Join up to Indycarz.com (There are a lot of ******** on there so watch out) There is TH specific forum on there and a bunch of other TH people on there.

Are you the red FD w/ the bike rack on the back?

Former 10AE owner here, heads up, our local rotary shop is shady as hell.

There are a lot of Indiana 7 owners. I don't know of any in Terre Haute anymore, though. There was Number's Guy, but he went into the Honda land last I talked to him.

If you're still around OP, i haven't seen a MB FD around, just a red one quite a few years back, i did see a MB in Greenwood a few weeks ago though! IIRC i saw one in Evansville about 6 months ago also. =\

I'm in crawfordsville about 40 minutes north of terra haute. I've seen a couple fc's in the area, but not in a while The only other rotary guy in town totaled his 8 and went into mini trucks.

Looks like someone's stepped in to fill my shoes (keeping the honda kids humble) in the Ville. I've grown up and moved up, so if any of you Indy FD guys are getting together, let me know.

I'm up for a get-together, but there aren't many FD guys around anymore, maybe we could organize a meet and see how many RX-7 guys are around now, all gens. Counting you, i can think of 5 off the top of my head.

The FD i saw in Evansville (last year) was silver with black wheels and a polished lip. Should be another higher powered red FD around if the guy i know still lives there.
