Looks good. I need to do the same with my FD. I just hate the prep work when painting cars. That always takes the longest, but you have to do it for a good paint job.

 

Yeah the prep work is rough, but totally worth it. I'm really glad with the way the car came out!

 

Looks great my good sir

 

I just moved to Albuquerque a little over a week ago. Having issues with the rx8, but as soon as that is sorted out I am down to meet some fellow rotary guys (I've owned multiple rx7s in the past, and they are still where my heart lies, just using the 8 as a daily driver and cross country driving machine until I find another 7).

 

Hey guys just looking to see if anyone knows where to get a used FD motor from? Don't care if it needs to be rebuilt just wondering if I can get one locally before I have one shipped.

 

Pretty rare thing to find around here. Good luck =).

 

Hey all you albuquerque-ians Haven't talked to most of you guys in a long long time! I'm back in the game again after selling Linda. Bought me an FD about a month ago hope I can catch back up with everyone and meet all the new people. Talk to you guys soon.

Welcome back, Sean. Not a lot happening here. Congrats on your purchase. I look forward to owning an FD again someday.

 

Congrats! Did you buy it locally or out of state?

 

Thanks! I bought it local, from a guy that lives like 5 houses away from me. I was cruising by and saw it in his garage, stopped, bought it the next day

 

I was thinking about you the other day when I went by Motorsports. Since you are now a FD owner, you can install that FD Japan OEM ashtray replacement armrest you got from me. We ran my 10AE at the track. 4th pass = 13.3 Crazy Vince from Invincible Racing couldn't keep the tires on the track. Wants me to put street slicks on the rear. Says it will run 12s!!!

 

Its already in there Congrats on the fast rig!!! I need to drive that thing still

 

Where the hell have YOU been father time!?!?!

 

Thanks. Remember when you thumped the 2 bikers when it had the twins? It is sick with your old single setup! We still have to get together on the 85 Honda Shadow deal with varnish in the lines and rust in the tank.

 

Back from the dead in time for Halloween! Moved back to the NE Heights a couple of years ago. Working and trying to keep up 2 households. My wife is moving back to ABQ soon, so my dual life in TrC will greatly reduce. Maybe now I can focus on my toys! Yeah!

 

So who is going to the Sandia Motor Park on the 6th? If your going to race be there at 8am I will be there but just to meet people and check it out. So who else is going?

 

How much is it for Spectators, and where is it exactly?

 

It's 20 bucks to race and FREE if you want to just check it out and watch. It's from 8:00 to Noon. Here is the link for Directions http://www.sandiamotorsports.com/directions/ This is the link for the event it's on RSW http://www.racingsouthwest.com/forums/ It will be in the event Calender, on the right.

 

Would like to go out there and drive but I'll be in Florida oh darn.

Don't forget there is also an RGRSCCA autocross at Santa Fe Place Mall on Sunday Nov 7th.
http://rgrscca.com/ if you want more info.

A good weekend for driving!

 

Awesome. Thanks for the info. If I get off of work early enough I'll head out there.

I have this day off so I'll go out and watch for sure. I won't be participating in anything until I have an FB again, though.

 

Have any of you been on Arroyo Seco Raceway? I know it is quite a drive from Albuquerque, but it looks like a really fun track.

 

I've raced motorcycles there. Its def. a cool track.

 

Who has two thumbs and is finally back on track with his FC project? This guy...

 

I've heard that it is a great track, much safer than Sandia because there are no walls that you could run into. Never been there personally though.

If you head out to the Santa Fe autocross be sure to talk to the guy in the blue GSL-SE (my dad)!

 

Will do. Is he going to be racing or just spectating?
