Quick shout-out to those in the Richmond area.

• Anyone compete in Lemons / Chump/Champ car endurance racing here?
• Is MSCW still active? Website looks like not much has happened in 6 months.
• Any interest in sharing a group-buy of some dyno time? I have a few cars that could stand some work and if I'm going to request a good block of time, I might be able to negotiate a discount if 4-5 more people show up. I'm thinking of asking RP Performance (Summit Point, WV) and maybe pair that up with a fall cruise down Blue Ridge Parkway.

Cheers --

 

Located in Northern VA (Manassas)
car isn't road worthy just yet but Id be down for a group buy event once its ready.

thanks,

 

Robert,

Hi. I'm in the Richmond area (northside) and have a Silver FD that I drive when I get the chance. A group of friends and I also have an E28 race car that is surprisingly fun, reliable, and competitive in LeMons racing. Perhaps you would like to come to one of our meetings either at g force or working on the car. Sending you a PM as well.

Hey are you still in Williamsburg? I'm in Hampton

 

How many of you older guys are still getting emails for this thread?!

Happy new year!

 

Car is long gone, but I still get the emails.

 

Still have my fd and still getting emails. Currently living in newport news.

 

VeryRed997, are you formerly known as Niburu?!

 

No, that was not me.

 

I still get them. I use to rebuild the rx7/rx8 in Petersburg like 10 years ago. Had a Z then. I now live in Idaho, fly airplanes instead of driving cars. Lost interest in cars after 3 kids.

 

I still get emails but it sure has been a while.

Yes, a lot of people came aboard after we moved down to NC, so I'm not familiar with the folks that came on after 2008 or so.

 

I am still me.
There is still the occasional Starbucks meet at the one on Robius and Huguenot, my old black FC is often there even though I don't own it any more, but I know who does.
I popped on here tonight because I was looking around for a possible FC project car.

I still have the Miata, it been sitting for like a decade now though.



The current daily is 2023 Crosstrek 6spd manual.

Anyone know why a confirmation link popped up for the site which consequentially deleted my 20 year badge.
I still have over 2000 posts still mind you so WTF?

 

update
I see a years badge has been applied, its wrong, but it's a start
should be 20 year badge not 5

update 2
and now thats gone

I feel my inner ******* rising to the surface
like the old days

 

lol. How many changes of ownership do you think this forum has seen in 20 years?! I'm surprised our user names still work!

 

I caught an old autocross video of your V8 FD at VMP on youtube last night.
We're working on moving again, this time I'm gonna stay in state though.
We're looking at the Staunton/Waynesboro area or even a little further west into Highland county - we are both working remote these days.
Looking for a nice little farmette with a big ole barn/garage.

 

Anyone headed at to the Starbucks meet tonight or C&CR tomorrow (1/21)?

 

Probably the one David Goodspeed put together. Good times were had at VMP/RIR for sure!

Beautiful part of the state, for sure. Cars & coffee are harder to come by out there I would imagine though! How was the turnout last night?

 

Nobody showed, but about half dozen of the current regulars were at C&CR this morning.
So I got to see former black RX7 and my former 911 Targa.

 

you shoulda seen it before the $30 Krylon job

 

talked to wickedywick at C&CR today, he had his FD pot for some exercise
saw my old black FC too, couldn't find Nick though

 

the weather forecast for this c0ming Saturday's C&CR is looking mighty nice, maybe some of you guys will make it

 

I got to see my old 7 at last weekends C&CR

 

Hey Nick or anyone else in the RVA, anyone need an Icemark lighting relay?
I was digging thru some old boxes, it's still bagged with the instructions.
Also, C&CR this Saturday
