Did this route a couple of times now and this was the last time with my 2013 Boxster S.

Ok...I'll set up a drive for RX-7s only. I'll create an event on FB. Sundays works best for me.

I think drives would be more interesting than weekly meets. Weekly is too often, monthly would be better. And Sundays work best for me as well.

I actually did meet with Mazda Militia ppl couple weeks back. They seem like nice guys, but they all know each other and I felt kinda like an outsider. Didnt had much to talk about...

Also, winter meets / drives kind of suck a little. Not everyone has proper tires on their 7s, including me which are summer semi-slicks, with defrost not working good.

What Im saying is we should meet less often during winter, and more in the summer....

I won't start anything until maybe March or April. Winter photoshoots are fun though if it's dry.


Taken this past Sunday.

I'm up in Mill Creek. It would be great to meet some local people with RX7s and go for drives. Please post up the facebook link when the event is created. Below are a couple pictures of my car.

BC Rebooked

I was able to rebook my hotel. I'm coming down on the Saturday(25th) and will stay Saturday and Sunday night in downtown Seattle.


Wife says freezing temps are expected at night. So we need to continue to watch the weather.

We can always push back the time and allow things to warm up and thaw. Glad you were able to rebook.
