Glad you made it back Chad, no visits with our finest this time, right?

I'll be there for a short while on Tuesday Chris, Saturday rotored me out quite a bit.

I'll bring the fan clutch and a charcoal canister. I also have a complete set of used Mazda OEM brake lines in good condition (front, back and rear axle; no cracks. I bought them about 5 years ago from Mazda and had them on the brown one for awhile).

How 'bout this weather? Should I root for philly or the desert rats?

Nope, took it easy and set the cruise at 74 and took some back roads after mount eagle (Chattanooga).
It was good to see that Don and his girl made it. Wish Jodie could have came with me to meet some of the girls.

I am going to be a little late tomorrow. I may miss the car show in the parking lot, but I should be there around 8:00.

How many 12A equivalent points the 74 Rotary Porsche, Ray? You've seen that one.

Good point Kevin. And here's another reason, anybody ever try to tune and synch three SU's every weekend?

Holly WankelPorches are good for 2 12A equivalents as well, they get credit for originality and for upgrading a boinger. That yellow one was very nicely done.

But you only get the full 2 12A credits if you have a truly classic car, like a porche, jag, mg, corvair, etc.

Oh... A corvair with a rotary, very interesting thought. I just flashed back to 1977.

1977... hmmm Mike, was 1977 the year you saved up enough money to take your girlfriend (now wife Michelle) out on a date in the 'rents '69 Corvair?

Nice pics Chris!

PS, I've got to give mod Sgt. Fox credit for helping me redesign my sig, not exactly the old OGTA card but at least it's street legal.

So Crit, you gonna become a mod or not?

I told you that the sig was still breaking some size rules but you wouldn't let me make it smaller. Glad you're finally wising up.

Naw Chris, the sig adjustment is just a feint to get the mods of my back for awhile. A little appeasement goes a long way with those guys. I'm already plotting new ways to upset the apple cart, especially if Crit becomes a mod.

Is there anything you can do to my biological rotor sig to make it street legal?

I'm free to come, but I'm not sure if I will. It's freezing I could though... just depends on the weather and if school work permits... I'll post before then though

It's not my place to decide, Ray. I volunteered to help but haven't heard back.

It takes awhile to run the background checks Crit.

See you all this evening, looks like the weather is holding and it won't be that cold after all.

Man, I totally forgot that tonight was an OGTA night. Does anyone need anything, parts-wise? I've got a good bit of FB hardware.

Someone should contact Donnie, so that in a day or two he cannot say something like "I was free to come out, but I forgot"
