Thanks Tim for keeping everyone up to date . Daytona has sucked the last two days. The weather has been RAIN RAIN RAIN. Looks to be better the next two days. We will see everyone at the next meet.

Bummer!! I was looking forward to the meet this weekend. I am guessing something else is going on in Florida that took a bunch of the group away this weekend.

Anyone want to do a mini meet tomorrow? Maybe in Huntersville at exit 25 of 77? There is a theater parking lot I have seen gatherings at that seem to not get hasseled. If it is only a few maybe we could just meet at Birkdale.

Sam asked to bump the meet a week since he was going to bike week in Daytona. Since there were no strong feelings either way we agreed. Hopefully the weather will be nicer next Sunday as well. The last meet was miserable because of the wind. Couldn't even keep our hoods open because they'd get ripped off.

Theres an import meet up here off of exit 25 over on the west side of 77 somewhere. Intense_Motorsports mentioned it a few posts back. Doesn't start until 10:30.

I talked to a guy who used to hang out there with his Vette. From what he said it died out, not sure if people go there anymore.

Free WiFi at the hotel. Just got back in tonight. Man I love going down to Daytona, but the drive back sucks! I made it back in a little under 8 hours. I don't think the speedo ever dropped under 85 . I just hate the long drive back. Hey Stu. What are you doing?!?! Trying to finally kill off the neighbors? I got some freebies for you when you come up Sunday! SGDFIS, second gen alternator, carb spacer.......We'll have that 7 updated before the next meet!

Sweeeeeeeet. Plus I picked up my clutch slave, and changed the oil/seafoam mix today. God that car is so much smoother, I want to run another bottle, but thats not for a few more months.

Hey Kory, I will bring up those S4 strut tower covers for ya if you still want them. I cannot fit them over my strut bar unless I cut them.

And I think within the next month I will be getting some 205/60/13 HTR200's. I will either burn off the old tires, or just give them out. Still got some goodtread.

Actually the Buell stayed home I took the BMW down. We were more interested in the vacation time without the little boy. First time we had a vacation since he was born almost two years ago. We let Grandma keep him for a couple days.

I was just going to order them up from tire rack, they're only 50 bucks a tire. First I need to restore my other set of waffles before I do that. Probably a month away. I'll check with you at the next meet. Thanks.

For the April 13th meet you guys think we should revert back to meeting at 3 instead of 1? We went to 1 because we ran out of daylight for the end of the meet drives. With the DST switchover I'm thinking we have our daylight back again.

what size tires do you need? My cousin owns Pit Stop Plus over here in denver and sells tires. I can see what kind of deal he can give us for group purchases and individual sales as well. he hooks me up usually and i have expensive tires to get.

That sounds good Tim. All those in favor............
With having last week off and today, I have finally got to take care of a few things on the two RX7s. The Turbo FB has gotten alot of love, and the SA is running great now. The SA is getting 17mpg city, and 22+mpg highway. I think in the next month or so, the SA is going up for sale. Anyone looking for a RX7 needs to check her out .

Not many places carry 205/60R13 tires anymore. The Sumitomos are about the only brand name source for them. Its a great size for the 4x110 13 inch rims for SAs.

I may look at 195/60R13 to see whats available in that size but its got less patch on the pavement if you know what I mean.
