"I am the only one who caught this."

Naw Stu, they all get it except Holly, who is too innocent. It's just that all the OGTA guys are tired of my stupid inside jokes (and I can't help myself).

You're lookin' good Sam, I was kind of guessing you might have cleaned up your act once I heard you were becoming an officer of the law

The 7 ain't bad either.

A summer XRoads/OGTA event would be great, imagine the collection of cars? And rotor heads?

Those Suby's handle pretty good Jeff, too bad they don't have a rotary.

Sup Michael, any luck on an RX-3 yet?

Who's all coming out tonight? Too cold for much parking lot time, but this will provide more time for beer.

I'll be there, am bringing springtime OGTA cards. (Mike I forgot your starter! Alzheimer's patients need frequent reminders!) But I have Jeff's taillight (was there something else Jeff?) and Chris' corky things and one peddle pad (might have more but haven't found them yet; anything else Chris?)

i need a taillight? or is there another jeff. i suppose i might need one, just wasn't aware of it, i don't think. the car has been up on jacks for about 2 weeks now. not that i've gotten much done on it, i just don't get a lot of time to wrench on it. got most of the major stuff done on it. just a few minor things left to do...

if anyone has a stock steering wheel they wouldn't mind parting with though, that'd be great. i like that better than the 10AE steering wheel that's on it.

Whoops sorry Jeff, I looked through the archives and it's 88GXL that wanted the left tail light (about a month ago, but at least I didn't totally make it up). Not sure I know this guy but it's in the car if he needs it.

Remember to sign up for the groups guys!

Hey Jeff, Kevin has a stock steering wheel you may be able to talk him out of. BTW, project88GXL is Ben, the guy with the sweet rims on a black GSL-SE that lost its wheel not long ago (but all fixed now).

That should be good.they gave me work even on the days I asked off this week so give them to Crit on account of me not being there. I'll be at his house this weekend.

Great, thanks.

Crit, are you going to bring the things you picked up for me at pull apart?

I'll most likely be getting there late. probably won't be leaving the house until 7 or a little after, and it'll take me about 45min to get there.

Thanks Crit, of course I know Ben, hope he shows up but if not maybe I can leave the light with you?

Ray, your math is a little off. From your count, that totals 7.5.(you state the 2nd gen is a full 1 point, but in the total you must have counted it as the usual 0.5). The official count is only 7.0, without extra points for freezing weather.

Oh, you forgot 2 zero points for Jeff's CX7 and Jeremy's Subaru boingers.

Good to see everyone again.

yup, i was there, even if my boinger didn't count towards the tally. its a mazda and it has X-7 in the name. shouldn't that be good for 2/3 of a point since its 2/3 of the correct name?

anyways, i snapped a few pics before coming in, so they are...

Wow nice camera work Jeff!

And Holly thanks for the corrections! I missed Jeff and Jeremy because I filed the 12A count in my computer-like brain BEFORE we went into Jefferies for the business meeting and beer, then forgot to add them when they came lumbering in fashionably very late. It was nice to meet Jeff, now we need to get them both back in their Wankels.

On the math, you are right, I can't add, the correct and official sum is 7.5 12A equivalents, including Jeff and Jeremy's two big fat 0's (Jeff it's the "R" that counts).

However I am very good at what constitutes a 12A equivalent and Brandon's FC definately counts as a full point (this time) because of the Cold Meeting/New Member claus in the OGTA charter.

You know the one where if a new member shows up in a Wankel (any Wankel) and it's less than 40 degrees out it counts as a full 12A equivalent (one time only)?
