To better serve our clients, sevenspeed will be opening this weekend near Pittsburgh, PA. Sevenspeed is located in a beautiful 6500 square feet building, with over 1800 square feet of retail area and lounge. The grand opening on November 24th ,the Saturday after thanksgiving, will be a day-long Rx-7 extravaganza. During daylight hours, the party will be suited to families and children, featuring an hourly laser show by Lightwave International and free goodies for the kids. Show cars will be on display, see below, and the showroom will be fully stocked for your browsing pleasure – special prices will also be in effect. At night, the entire venue will be transformed into a European nightclub. A full-color 6 Watt Argon/Krypton laser producing a few TRILLION colors will be the centerpiece of this unique experience. Dozens of bounce mirrors are currently being aligned in the building’s steelwork to create unique patterns of intense colored laser beams above the audience. Special motorized remote mirrors, special effects, and fog machines will enhance the atmosphere. A special invisible laser screen will be used to project 3D images in full color above the audience, laden with Rx-7 imagery. A full concert truss is currently in place, and being equipped with almost 20 intelligent lighting fixtures including Technobeams, Studio Spots, AF-1000’s, and Emulators. Several DJ’s popular in the underground electronic music scene will be spinning, along with a special live performance by Sean Rudiman – well known for his soulful Detroit Techno [ full lineup TBA shortly]. Professional sound reinforcement will be in place, comprised of multiple speaker stacks. We will have pictures of the setup for this massive undertaking on the website by the weekend, and perhaps a preview video.
