All gainesville RX7s check in here.

Ok so I'm trying to get a running total of actually how many rx7s are here in Gainesville or very close by. (Jacksonville doesn't count) so far I've got

Gringo Grande here:

FC#1 - 88SE aka 'The Project Car' - Blue
FC#2 - (Purchasing tonight) 89 Vert with streetport - Black

Two other guys in Gville with RX7s.

Deo - Owns the Mellow Mushroom - Has a beautifully maintained 10th AE
Gunnar - Owns GP Auto - huge RX7 fan...his favorite cars to work on and he KNOWS his stuff...he loves FB's and has a couple of them...also has an FC or 2.

I also saw a dude in a red vert on University Ave the other day. Positive he had aftermarket exhaust and some type of streetport...maybe turbo'd? Looked good.

Feel free to PM me anytime anyone wants to get together although I have yet to start dropping money into "the kids".

Just an FYI...Gunnar's shop, GP Auto is behind Sonny's off of Waldo Road. Maybe a stuff ourselves silly on BBQ night and stop by his place...he'd probably be down with it.

Project,

Ya man...I eat there like 3 or 4 times a week...and I was there the day after the bum got tossed!

A couple other RX7's in town (only know the owner of 1).

Black FD - Owner's name is Rory, he used to work at one of my clients. He was in the military and part of a car club in Hawaii. You can't miss his FD, it's more for show than go...totally kitted out...but it looks nice as hell. He's a great guy and he's owned FB's and an FC as well I believe.

Brown FB - Older gentleman...I'd say mid 40's? Perhaps a little older? Car looks in good shape, he did the paint job himself.

Silver FB - Parked in someones yard over in NE 8th or 10th Ave or so.

Just an FYI. I talked to Gunnar...any night we all want to get together, grab some Sonny's and hang out in his shop/parking lot...we are welcome...I just need to give him a little advance warning.

GG

The next meet will be at the Gaineville Raceway Roadcourse on saturday the 10th

Anyways, i think thursday would be a great night for an impromptu rx-7 meet. There is a local car club that meets on thursdays at the gainesvilel ale house @ ~10:30. Miss_liss_a and I will be out there, probably in her 7, chilling.... you all should come out, it would be great to see some new cars, and talk rotorys for a change... im sick of LS1 this and LS1 that!!!!

My car is down for a little while, I'm waiting on my Ron Davis competition radiator and Samco hoses to arrive. Once I get them you will definitely see me on the road again.

Well the question is do we want to play with others or just have an initial meet up of the rotary lovers somewhere?

Also, we should start leaving notes or something on people's cars to sign up here so we can meet up.

Heck, give me a week and I'll have a decent Gainesville Rotary Lovers website up or something that they can be directed to.

I may make it, I'd love to bring the new (relatively speaking), streetported, vert but I'm still waiting for some parts to arrive.

I've still got the 88, base DD though! =D

For the "Non-Gville" peoples...would a meet-up be easier on a week night or weekend for you?
