Old guys with 12As club meeting
03-31-10, 11:35 AM
I may have to call Cathy and tell her to keep an eye on you when you are out by the goats.
I think maybe you got a bad batch of Coors Light, Ray.

It's not the beer Mike, it's just that us liberals have very vivid imaginations, a better world and all that stuff. If you had spent some time in Panama City, you'd understand.

And some of Jeff's photos:
Don't see too many Old Schools.

I dunno Zach, the camera guy seems to be having trouble with the focus button and I didn't see a single 12A in the whole thing. And then there's those guys hugging at 2:10 minutes, I guess I'm just antisocial.
But I was just reading on widipedia that 1st gen RX-7s won the GTU category at Leman's for like 10 years in a row. Can that be real?
Wait, I see there's some good stuff at 4:44, maybe it does have some redeeming features. I'll watch it again.
Nope, still no 12A's, that part at 4:44 is the best part.
So OK, I'm just kidding. Tell us all about the wonderful time you had at Sebring!

Ray, the focus thing was done on purpose. It's a cinematography thing.
LOL, there are no 12A's in the main event. Sometimes in the SVRA vintage races you see some
old RX-7s. There used to be 3 rotor and 4-rotor cars run at Sebring in the years past. Jim's Kudzu for instance. And the MazdaSpeed prototype.

I know, they invented that artsy fuzzy focus thing back in 1966 for a movie called Grand Prix with James Garner and Eva Marie Saint (I was 14 when it came out, saw it three times).

Here's a few more trailers:

That was back in the days when you drove cars, not just ride in them. Now Grand Prix is just a video game:

I think Grand Prix should be one of t he ZoomFest movies this year.
I loved those clips, especially the remix with the Black Betty sound track.
I remember seeing it at the theater when I was 6 years old, damn I shouldn't

I'd love a movie at ZF, but I don't know where we could find someone who would get good professional quality coverage. I love well made videos. Coverage with this level of professionalismwould be nice.

I think Tim was meaning a movie to watch this year at ZF..Grand-Prix.
That is what I was voting for anyhow!
We could make a documentary and call it " The Bridgeport Project" or something else catchy

The ZoomFest Chronicles. Chris, you're pretty handy with a lens, why don't you give it a shot?
And yeah, my vote is for Grand Prix to be one of the ZoomFest movies. Those guys knew how to drive. And the women were way better looking back then too.

O NO!!!! Coolant leak, it looks like something hit the radiator from the bottom and made a small hole. Not sure how that happened
Any one have a spare radiator?

Also new problem. My fuel pump is dead (I think) cause the car will run on flat ground or facing downhill but will stall out the second the car goes up a hill. I don't know if it;s the wiring, that relay thing that senses oil pressure failing, or the fuel pump unit itself.
