I live in crestview if anyone is interested in having a beer at my place tonight. I have the white FD that has been floating around.

903-453-1225 shoot me a text and ill grab some beer and burgers for the grill.

As for a shop... I spoke to a dude named justin I think a few weeks back. He owns a place in Navarre called RPM. He has done a few high HP rotaries and has most software for any EMS to include my PFC. I need a new turbo first though. Mines too small for the power I want. He has a 62-1 for me. : ) That should get the job done. I just need to find a DP for it.

Don't really know how a 12A feels personally but there's always the same FB parked in front of L'Orange on John Sims (hwy 20) in Niceville, maybe whoever owns it there can help you. What exactly is it doing to make you think somethings up?

Sorry about the demo range. I tried getting out of the BS that we were doing. We're getting ready to head out the door for another year in Afghanistan so GSB has had a ton of training. I'm actually on a flight right now to Utah. I'll hit you up when I get back. I won't have much to hang out though because I board for SSG on the 1st. After that you know I'm down for just about anything.

Oh, so I burned a relay on the circuit board for the HID controller. A damn two dollar relay has the car down. Lol. I can't find it anywhere so I just bought another HID kit. Pissed me off!

Every tuesday night people meet up at the swamp in the parkin lot(8 o clock and later). Not a rotary club but what the hay. That happens every week unless sum idiot decideds to show off and cause an accident or get the athorithies involved.

So if you want to start a meet that would be a place to start.

I work nights up at old bay so I generally can't go, plus I just pulled the engine and tranny to fix an oil leak around the oil pan and replace the transmission, the transmisson doesn't like 20psi and 9000rpm. I am not fred flint stone.

Every tuesday there is a group up there around 8 or 9. I have seen a few FD's out there. Go check it out. Most people up there are friendly, sum are *** clowns, you decide.

Seandizzie, I'm a little weary of *** clowns. I think we should try a first Saturday of the month meet. We can rotate cities ie. Pensecola, destin, crestview. The forum doesn't really have much northwest attention so maybe we can get something going. Anyone else interested in the idea?

Just got rid of an 85 with turbo 2 microtec swap due to the lack of rotary guys in the area. I just got an 89 Suzuki Samurai 13b Turbo for the track. As far Rotary shops that can actually do a good job and tune NONE.......... Im in Crestview as well. If any help or parts needed. Holler

I'll be heading out there this coming Tuesday (13 March). A rotating Saturday meet sounds pretty interesting. I'd be up for it. If anyone else will be out there Tuesday let me know. Would be nice to not be the only person out lol.

Please, keep me inform on any future rotor head gathering.
I am working on getting my GXL back on the road.
Any plan for a road trip to 2012 DGRR?

I'm embarrassed to go to DGRR. My car is in nice shape but its ugly compared to the stuff that shows up at DGRR.

Sunday, 1 April, lets start voting on a city:
Crestview, (its where I live) Applebees

Most votes wins first city. Then we should proceed with the rotation in alphabetical order.
