Welcome back from your "other world" experience Rick. I posted on your "Lime Rock" thread.

Christian, we do have your chair. Safe and sound in the trailer. We'll see you on July 9th for the "cone-a-thon" right? We tested the compression on the FC and it's still good (amazing after 10 runs in the heat).

Rick, we can't wait to hear your stories in person. You're come on the 9th too, right?

nice, i just put that in the other day. even putting in a heavier weight in the tranny still does nothing though. i guess it is just old. thanks for keeping my chair shawn, how much is the rent?

by the way everyone..... in my opinion, FandF3 was freakin' awsome!!! (laugh away)

how about we have a cookout/meet the weekend before rotorfest? that gives us time to plan or change the date if everyone is gone.

There's got to be more to the story.

I am going to take the Supra for its emissions test tomorrow. Wish me luck. David and I put the "stock" exhaust back on last week. Keep your fingers crossed.

I can't believe this was on the second page! Anywho.. Gus with the turbo Eclipse from devens says hi. thought i'd let everyone know who met him. he says that he seriously wants an fd so if anyone knows someone selling i might have a buyer for them.

Rick, i would never sell my 7. you and everyone else calling me crazy talked me out of it. i was thinking irrationaly. thanks for yelling at me. i'll give gus jesse's info. i told him to make an acount on here so he could do the research.

rick, are you going to go to the nationals at all this weekend? if so, we should meet up. same for you pete. the only 7 i saw last year was a 10AE.

im not a big fan of the summer trashionals, but i might go check the cars out. im going to worcester right now to drop off some tires for the rx-8, so i might do a little drive through to scope it out, but my car gets no love from domestics. nice cars though, just dumb people (for the most part)

alright guys, to my surprise, i decided to enter my car into the Summer Trashionals (Nationals) i entered the parking area and within seriously 15 seconds of getting out of my car got into my first argument with someone trying to think that they know my car better then me. Guy-"Awww is this a 93.' Me-'Yup'. Guy-"Wow last year of production". Me-'Actually the last imported RX-7's were in 95 and the last produced RX-7 was in Japan in 2001.' Guy-'No they produced the last imports in 93 and they kept selling them new in America until 95. Man i wish i had a 95 RX-7.' Me-'?!?! Uh okay?!' (walks away, not worth my time.) I was pretty much the only import there, at least on Main Street and behind the Crown Plaza, but there should be more at Greenhill Park and Main Street Tomorrow. I figured $12/day or $40/4 days for 2 people? Anyone goin? Eastcoastbumps, you must love muscle cars come check it out.

christian, glad to hear you're not sellin the RX-7 anymore. i was worried there for a few days.

Tell me something how do you guys get your cars to pass emissions everytime i go up there the dummies give me the rejected sticker & now that im gona drop my 13b with dellorto's RB headers & presilencers & primaflow muffler i will pass it even less. My nefew says he knows nobody right now were in the Christian Hills section in Lowell ma Right now i've been staying in NYC for about 3 yrs with my parents cause i got a job here but wanted to go to the meets up there but figure Lowell PD gonna stop me & ticket me Royally if mass state police dont get me on the mass pike or Lowell connector on the way back up

Christian give me a call if you come out to worcester this weekend.

David/Shawn- let me know if you guys need help getting ready for next sunday.

for FDs the trick for emissions is the air pump. you have to tell the inspector that the air pump cuts out a 2300 rpm. if he goes above that it is a garaunteed *R*.

Hi guys, we just got back from Albany. Rick, I think we're good to go on the AE. David's got the day off tomorrow so we'll probably go through the AE to be sure (bleed brakes, check oil etc.). I have both batteries charged on the impact wrench just in case we have to do a double tire swap again for both you and Christian. You are going, right Christian. David and I volunteered to help pack the NER truck after the event so no matter what happens, we have to be there until the end.

I am thinking of having a BBQ by the end of August. This would take place around Boston, probably Brookline, or Brighton. How many people would be interested in this? I would provide the location, some basic meats(I dont cook fancy) and some drinks. You guys would bring some stuff that you would like thrown on the grill. I would ask that you donate $5 or so per person to cover some costs(utensiles etc).

So how many people like the idea. This wouldnt be only the 7 club also. I'll probably invite some people from Team Integra.
