Thumbs up Intro

Hey, what's up guys.

Recently I've been considering getting into rotary engines. They seem interesting to say the least. So I figured I should learn a little since I'm interested.

Right now I'm driving a Subaru Impreza 2.5RS. I love my car and I would never think of getting rid of it, I just think it would be fun to have something new to learn and play with.

I noticed this thread right away and I realized this forum should be a lot nicer than nasioc.

This site (not specifically the NW forum) has TONS of info on it, so anything you want to know...or just about, is here.

What gen were you looking at?

One of my buddies from college pointed me to a few message boards that he thought were good for info. I think his SN would be iotus. Not sure though.

I would like a 3rd gen, but that's unlikely. So I was thinking a 2nd gen (probably a T2) would be nice. When they're done up right, I think they look great.

Along those lines, my last name is Johnson. His is Jensen. We thought that was pretty funny when we ended up in the same class. What time is the meet as Izzys? I might be able to make it out.

Sounds good. I'll probably just stop by real quick to check the cars out. I want to see what you guys are doing to these cars From my talk with iotus, they're nothing like the Subarus I'm used to.
