I'm planning to make my monthly appearance, and unfortunately still sans-rotary.
Think I'll bring a lawn chair and a Super Big-Gulp big enough to dock a jet ski in.

It was a bust. Though 2/3rd of the usual crowd was there, there was zilch rotary representation. Frankly, I'm not surprised with the oppressive heat. So be glad you didn't attend.
Funny story for you guys. I daily drive my Rx-7 and it was sitting out in the parking lot on Friday. I left work early on Friday and as such, the shadow from a tree that usually does its work of cooling down my car for about an hour or two before I leave hadn't quite reached my car yet. I have a new mechanical temp gauge that is in its pod but not hooked up yet (the lead is just kind of stowed amid the rest of the wiring in the foot-well). When I got in the car, the gauge was reading 170! WTF that can't be right? But, that's what I get for having a black car I guess...
Man that was a hot drive home (no A/C). On the positive side, when I opened up the windows even the 100 degree air felt relatively cool.

Looks like a good day to whip out my Wankel in public
I think I am going to hit Allsports after the show, anyone interested ?

Exactly why you want to go to an AutoX in the first place. Learn to drive fast and improve your skills in a safe and controlled environment. You can't really break anything either ;P One of these days
