We had a good track day today. We had a new guy in a first gen out there running for the first time. Event was great everyone was having a great time. The next event will be at 10:00 from now on with it getting cold and nobody wants to get up early on a Saturday.

You mean people actually live out there? jk
Probably slim to none, the rx7 scene is slacking pretty hard in Albuquerque so I doubt you'll have much luck anywhere else. Sorry

The rx7 scene may be lacking, but I've seen more rx7s on the road here in the past two months than I did out of five years in Indiana. (excluding when Rotary Revolution was still taking place in Indianapolis).

I'd like to get a better idea of who I am seeing when I see another RX-7 on the roads around here. Any chance you guys/gals would post pics of the cars so I can put a name ot the car? I'll start ...
The first is my 82 GS
Second is my 83 GS, daily driver
Third is a joint effort between my son and I to use as an autocrosser

I don't have a Rx7 currently, but if you see my Rx8 out and about with me stopping or something I won't bite.

Also, Kencunm, I watched you at that autocross in Santa Fe. I didn't say hello because I had no idea who you were.

The only thing different about my Rx8 are the wheels. I have a set of gunmetal Enkei meshies on it. And sorry for the bad picture, it is the only one I have of it.

The motivation of the New Mexico rotary owners is outstanding!

It's the orange one though, hard to get it mixed up with anyone else.

I didn't notice. If I did I would have probably given you a dirty look. Hopefully I wasn't picking my nose, or singing, or any of the other ridiculous things I do when I forget people might actually be watching.

Sweet TII! I miss mine all kinds. So is anyone here local interested in my other FD that I'm selling? I know this isn't a sale thread, I'll make one, but I'm not ashamed of a little thread-jacking haha. Its a nice ride. Needs a few odds and ends and paint, but it runs good and drives good. $5k!!!

If I wasn't still recovering from all the money lost from driving all over the country and then moving here I'd very well be down for a FD. Sadly, I can't afford it right now.

5k is a ****** steal! Damn I wish I could afford that right now. I too been moving alot which really hurts the pockets. Might possibly be buying a house pretty soon so I'm gonna be supa-broke.
Good luck with the sale. I'm sure it'll be gone quick.

I still own a house back in Indiana and I'm paying for it dearly. I rented it out to my brother and he hasn't been paying, thus I've been left paying for it making something like 10 dollars less per hour now than I was when I lived there. Not so much fun.
