We will all be leaving at 5 on the dot, so you better get out of work early Mark! Just kiddin man, if there is as many cars as it looks like there will be then we will probably be there for a while.

I say tommorow is a GO, anybody disagree?

Very good meet. Nice to meet some new people. The cars were amazing, I was told the count was 48 rotary vehicles.

Was a good time. Sorry that I got there so late. Was nice to meet a bunch of the guys. Bunch of 7's and 8's as well. I missed the bulk of the crowd I believe as I wasn't able to get there until 4:30. I took a few pictures, and I'll post them up once I get them up loaded.

OK. Just finished uploading the pics I took. Didn't take too many, as people were in and out a lot of the time. Conglomeration of RX7's and RX8's.












RX8 Engine bay with MazdaSpeed strut bar.

yeah, very nice turnout for a Philly meet... there is usualy the same 5 or 6 cars and thats it. to bad about no grills to cook anything. Jehan and I ran to my office at the arenas to pickup some water and beer so people wouldnt dehydrate. hope you guys drank some of it. I had another BBQ to attend after the meet so i just ate great, but sory to those who drove a long way. next time we will get prepared a little better. I am actualy shocked at how many people turned out for basicly just mentioning a time and place with no real orginazation.... i will add the photos to my website tomorrow. had a little to much to drink between the meet and my BBQ in the heat....
nice to meet some new faces.

Travis, sorry for the hello and then run... hope to meet up some time in the future.
-Keith

ZMarko, thanks for the pics. Glad to meet you.
Keith, no problem with that, just gives us another reason to get more meets together.

Today was definately a good time. The only suggestion I have is to have some sort of event or activity to keep people around longer next time. It seems like people didn't stay for very long, which I will blame on the stinkin' hot weather. Other then that, it was a blast!!

I think part of the reason it was pretty short was the fact that it was hot as hell, another part being it was just pretty much park your car and talk to people, and lastly everyone said they would pitch in food and stuff, but there was some water and an ice cream truck pretty much.

Great turnout....meet some nice people and seen some sharp cars. Caravan from Lancaster/Coatsville was fun....that entrance into the lot by the widebody 1st gen was wild. nothing like taking over the highway with a load of RX-7's. I have a few pics on the website below. Ocelot is right...it was hot as hell...left early but it was all worth it.

I thought it was great!!!............. except for the fact that after we were there for 20 minutes, 8 of us or so, left to get food at wawa and when we got back, 2/3rds of all the people there had left!!! I mean, we got there a little before 3pm, and before we knew it, it was over!! We were only gone for like a half hour!!
The turnout was excellent, except for the fact that no one seemed to stay long enough!! We were some of the last few who actually stayed there till the end....as usual. Hopefully, everyone will stick around longer next time!!
P.S.: who was that girl in the red shirt that was in the red RX-8 that was near that red Supa???
