A buddy of mine just got his p port starlet done.. Going to dyno tune it in ATL on the 26 and then go run it on the 27th. He is flying his mechanic in from PR.

I met you about 10 years ago with Gouch.. Still have the R100's?

I was just messing with you. I have been through the Panoz school and have been around that track in my younger days on bikes many of times..

I just prefer straightline and fast now... Less of a workout on me as I am older and diabetic now..

I think you may have met my Dad - I was really young back in those days. The R100's were sold and went to Puerto Rico and then re-sold. What is your name?

I may or may not have met you! The pro stock bug is complete now. Actually in the process of building a new roller cam power plant now to be ready for the 2010 season. Yes the R100's were nice. Wish we did not sell them - but you know you regret stuff after you do it. This is why now i still have my 77 RX3SP factory A/C car

FWI= I am in idiot.. FYI I will talk with him later this week. I know it wont be a steal as he knows what its worth and its nice. He used to race it back in the early 80's in S FL. Its a full bridge 12a. He also has a few FC's and FB's if anyone once one to cut up as they are rough. He had a datson 1200 back halved rotary that he sold last year. Guy knows his rotary's. has a lapping table, engine stand to run all motors he builds.

Yes please find out for me. Also find out if the lapping table is for sale as well. I forgot to ask you are you going to the Import Showdown?

I doubt he would ever sell his table. He had it built for him and it does a very nice job. I left a message today with him about the r100. He has a source for 2 more rx3's one parts car and another complete. Once I get all the info I will let you guys know. But if the deal is too nice..... well you know....

Not going to the event there as I have a local street car shoot out I am in Sunday. Have to work Saturday.

rolandgreauxii- I have meet you and your dad.. I remember seeing a couple of r100s in the shop bitd.. I didn't want to look to hard, cause I didn't want to make anyone nervous. Ya'll didn't know me..
Anyway I saw you run that rx3 on Moreland one night and spank some guy that was sure he had you pegged as a ricer. LOL I love it when rotaries rip into the the streets!! I miss the old days at Moreland.. ) :
