I've thought about printing out some business-style cards that everyone can stick on 7's they see around town to come to the forums and see what we are up to or maybe I'll make a mailing list or something.

I like the business card idea. Doesn't have to be anything fancy. Hell it doesn't even have to be printed on real business cards.

I was hoping I would be able to see Deo's 10th AE, whats wrong with it?

We had a local guy that had cards to put on 7's he ran in to but found stalking them and meeting them face to face was more effective. This wasn't effective every time as it made a few of them run red lights to get away for this strange person they didn't know. Jack

I'd like to thank everyone who showed up. We had 1 FB, 3 FC's, and 3 FD's for the meet...we will forgive the 300z since his wife drives a 3rd Gen! I think we'll try to do this again in three or four weeks...maybe during the day this time!

I think the best part of the night is I had randomly left a note on an older woman's 2nd Gen to stop by and she did...and I think she got some needed help in diagnosing car issues.

Pleasure meeting ya'll.

Kevin, thanks for setting this all up! I owe you at least one beer!

You just missed my wife, she showed up about 5 min after you left.

Also, to any and all that care, our local car club meets every thursday night at ~10:30pm in the ale house parking lot. Melissa and I try to be out there, and we are always looking for more RX-7's and good people in general. Our local car forum is www.intmo.com

If you have never heard of them www.imvfilms.com is worth checking out as they are a local group of gurilla style documentry film makers that focus specifically on performance cars and typical street mayhem!

Tthere was some talk about alan and his FD, so i though i would dig up an OLD video IMV did featuring his car a while back.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...26&q=imv+films

--------
I am kicking around the idea of an RX-7 only track day. I think it would be great to hear nothing but rotorys at the road course all day, with maybe the exception of a slow z32

Geez....been working everyday since the get together ! ! ! Thanks Kevin for putting this together as usual good meeting some local Peeps and it always amazes me how hanging around the parking lot looking under hoods never seems to get old, hopefully we can do a caravan to some meet going on in a near by town in the future. Tom, Jim and I should be at the car show on Saturday night (charity event put on by a local hot rod club) over behind the Oaks mall and happens every year during the Gator Nationals. While my car isn't show material (like Jim's and Tom's) it's worth the price of admission of $15.00 to park together and keep an eye on the cars while walking around looking at some of the realy trick rides. Later, Jack

I live right behind oaks mall. My car isnt show material either. But I still want to see others. Could you post some more detail on it? Like a time or maybe a website for the show.

Hahah next meet is going to be during the day for some hot photo action. Since I own a multimedia company, we've got plenty of space and bandwidth for pics to post! Hopefully the 'vert will be ready soon.

I'll be posting the video of my other FC getting hit later this week (Thank God for parking garage cameras).
