What, and park my car next to yours? No way. My OEM plastic just can't compete.

I'm generally up for a get- together, but there aren't many FDs around. You may want to consider opening it up for other rotaries.

Well that eliminates alot of people unless we can get a deal on towing.
I would come but my car is still being fitted with the 20b and isnt plan on running till end of summer unless I win the lottery.

I'll come to, just let us know when. I'm from Fremont and i plan on getting my car out of storage in may. Late may would be better for me so i can have time to install some parts i'll be getting. Lets try to make this one work though, we always set up a time to meet and then 2 people go. We need at least 7

I am in Omaha and have a FD that usually runs. I can probably make it there but lately the car does not start after being driven. It needs to sit for long while. Let me know the plan.

I also need to get mine properly tuned. Maybe still share shipping to Texas with you?

Later,Forrest

Well, I'm new here in Nebraska, not new at all to the rotary though.

I'll have my FD up here joining the Omaha few if it makes the drive from Florida on the rebuild which I'll hopefully complete while I'm down there in the next couple of weeks.

So anyway, before I go off rambling, which I do alot of, I'll have my FD up here on or about Memorial Day, God willing, if this get-together is gonna happen that late in the month.

Otherwise, I'm always up for anything FD/rotary related, you all just hit me with a PM and I'll get you my cell #. I'm pretty good with this damn car, I've owned it since 2000, rebuilt it twice, rebuilt a friends engine twice, and another one once, so I know the engine quite well...but I wouldn't go to me for tuning. done a few transmissions drops, brakes, diffs, etc., I don't think that there's a bolt on the car that I haven't turned. So if you need a hand holler. Anyway, hope to meet you all soon, this electronic stuff sure beats leaving notes on other FD's.

Hi Jon,
From your profile, I'm assuming your coming to Offutt. I live in Bellevue, near the Base Hospital. Probably not a skilled as you are, but I do my own maintenance and most repairs. I have a strange work schedule, so I can't guarantee I'll make it to the get-together. But welcome to the area just the same. Shoot me a PM when you get settled in.
