Updated list with my pops name, so far he is game as a co-pilot. On the bad side, I might have to bail early due to wife making evening plans that does not include the gross polluter RX-7 of mine

I would love to do this but I work Saturdays. Also my rx7s aren't up to par rite now so I'd go in the e36. But if the date changes to Sunday I'll be there!

Did I see you with that car on a trailer 95 south of DC this past summer? Heavy traffic, I was in a black fb.

I don't think so, I tend to not take the 7 very far outside of Lynchburg since it still isn't potty trained.

Berto, Glad to have you out. Man, it has been a while since the CiCi's meet.

Anthony, don't let RXtacy give you crap. You don't see him or his gray FD on the list of attendees

I was actually planning on the FD this time, I need to take it in for emissions testing next week when I get some free time. If it passes, it will be there.

IIRC your car needed a new heart. When you gonna finish that?

Ah I remember having to pass emissions testing

Yea, I built the motor a long time ago though. If that's all I was doing it would have been on the rd a year ago It's all the custom fab work I'm doing that's taking time. I have a build thread in the other forum 'rotary car build up' section if you're interested in the details.

This does sound like the sort of thing I'd be interested in. I may surf over and check it out. I hope I remember my pw for that site, it's been a while.

It is still a couple days too far to be accurate, but all saturday weather forecasts in the Sperryville-Luray-Front Royal triangle are showing partly cloudy, mid 50's with no rain.

Replacement turbo will be here tomorrow thanks to rx7 SE! Hoping the shaft play is minimal so I can toss it in and bring the car down.

My status is now "doubtful" Might have some house stuff to do.

If I do come, be prepared to provide a jump A little rundown of what's happening: I drove it around for about an hour, all electronics were working fine. Parked it, then 2 minutes later the battery was essentially dead. Jumped it, everything seemed fine, drove it again for about an hour, went to start it right after shuting it off.....dead. Something is causing my battery not to charge.

Or just need a new battery, take it to an auto parts store to get it checked. They will test it for free.

I can bring jumpers anyway though.

+1, either it's a weak battery or alternator. Any auto parts store will check your system for you for free

looking forward to meeting you guys this weekend! My Mom (Sincerie) will be coming with me btw. Is the route posted earlier in this thread final? If so I need to figure out where I'm going to meet up with you guys and possibly get a contact number from somebody.

HAHA, this reminds me a bit of when Wes was rebuilding his engine and we put it back in the car and got it to turn over the day before the cruise a year or so ago. Nothing like a cruise to put some break in miles on a motor. Good luck, you can get it done.

Yep it is final: THE MAP. If you are going to meet us somewhere along the way try to get a number off of someone who has a passenger so that you can coordinate it. I prefer not to take calls while I am driving.
