Looks like a few guys are coming down from the RRDI, we know Smoken' as Steve 'cause that's what his tires do. He is going to school somewhere around Statesville on an RRDI scholarship so that he can come back to the RTP area and keep all our rotaries running. Looks like we'll have 5-6 drivers coming to Charlotte that weekend. Keith has a beautiful vert and I haven't seen his new wheels or his new ragtop.

man it looks like its going to be a good turn out down here, i cant wait to see all the cars down there, its going to be my first meet so its going to be fun. cant wait, and has any one decided where were going to go eat?? any ideas around the area. some where not to expensive but where we can get a large party table. and if we get it all figured out maybe we can make resevatoins some where so its not a huge suprise when we all show up.

Nope, my entire 12a turbo setup is up for grabs if anyone here locally wants it, would defineatly help by not having to ship, plus you could see it on my car before I take it off. Picking up a GSL-SE this weekend which will recieve a J-spec 13bt swap w/ a 60-1 hopefully by april or may.

Suppose I could still drive it up there on 1 rotor, still starts w/ a flick of the key

hey you can run down I40 East all the way to Statesville and get on I77 south, that will take you south all the way to exit 18 on I77. from there you just take a right off the exit and the mall is up on the right. Im pretty sure thats how it goes, can any one confirm this for me

thanx...so roughly how far is it on i-77?? just wondering if it would be shorter/quicker to possibly head towards charlotte...(i77 is one of the roads i dont know!!)

It might be faster to take 74 thru Shelby to 85N toward Charlotte and go from there. Check www.mapquest.com that will tell you the quickest way (not being a smartass).

But, if at all possible, don't go through Shelby. 74 would save time, except for the 3,739 traffic lites that are in just shelby's little section of 74.

But yeah, since you are in Asheville, I'd go East on I-26 (Towards Spartanburg, columbia, etc). Exit onto hwy 74 and head East. You'll go through Shelby and Kings Mountain before you can exit onto I-85. Go Northbound on I-85. You'll go pass Gastonia and go into Charlotte. Take I-77 South and follow the previous directions to the mall.

Like I said though, Shelby will be no fun at all with all the traffic lites.

The simplest way to bypass all that would be to take I-26 East until you get to Spartanburg where it intersects with I-85. Take I-85 Northbound. You'll go past Gastonia and go into Charlotte. Take I-77 South and follow the previous directions to the mall.

It's really your call, but those are best ways I can think of if you are coming from Asheville.

I hate to be another "try to come", but I will. It's a bit of a drive for me (New York), but it looks like the only meet on the calendar this year, so I want to be there.

Skylance

DUDE!!! Holy Cow. New york huh?!?

I don't know how easily you can just up and come down this way, but if you can only afford/make/whatever one trip, I'd wait until Deal's Gap if I were you. But yeah, we'll be glad to have you.

MrFC3S

Hey, Gime an Addy(mapquest cause im a dummy) and count me and my 87 GXL in...

Skylance

You may be right about that. can someone please confirm this?

aspirao

yes you want to get on 77 northbound to get to the mall!!

PerkyStina

Man... I wish I was closer down there. I'd definitely come! I might be down in the area visiting Smoken' (Steve) in May-ish, so perhaps you guys will be getting together again.

I can't wait for warm weather. Today was awesome.

Skylance

Ha ha silly me!

Slappy360

Got the Master and Slave Cylinders installed...bleed the air...Now the damn car won't start! I stopped driving it over a year ago when the clutch master went out...was running fine then. Gotta pull the fuel pump/lines and see whats up. Hopefully will have it running in 2 weeks!

man alomst time for the meet.

rejekt

hey y'all, i'm new to the site, and about to buy a fc rx7 with the 13bt engine in it and was wondering if any of y'all was from around the fayetteville area. was wondering if i could get help with an install or if y'all can point me in a direction that can help

Skylance

Welcome

Sorry, can't help you with the install myself. I've got my own project going on now. There should be plenty of people here willing to help though. Could also try www.rx7world.com.

rt turbo

hey, i told rotorsports about it. i think they may be down to make a showing.

also, i went to the go cart place and i found out that we can get a discount for an hour ride if we have enough people and we put mone down to hold a spot. is anyone interested? these carts are bad ***. they do over 40mph.
