That's some of that Libertarian math P7.

11-6-12 12A count

1 SA = 1.5 12A's (James)
1 FB = 2 12A's (Mike S.)
1 FC = 1 12A's (Kristy)
1 FD = .333 12A's (Jeremy)
3 FE's - .375 12A's (Holly, Tommy, Luis)

3 Boingers = 0 12A's (Crit, Ray, Caitlin)

Total 12A count = 3.958

not only does the math not add up but how is an FB worth more than an SA

Oh no, here we go again on another 12A equivalent rant.

Yeah, it is pretty amazing that Michelle married me. What is that saying about people who live in glass houses?

Frankly Mike, I think they married us for our Wankels.

Not too soon to be marking the calendar for the December OGTA meeting.

Check this car out.

Ray, I think it has Sky Active. Sell Flipper and and you're back in the rotary game.

What's the deal with a engine swap in an FD for a flooding problem? Am I missing something? In a first gen just add some ATF and be on your way. Plus you get to fog the neighbors.

The stranger on the right is Dean the Dear Slayer. Haven't seen him since the election.

Thanks for the link to the FD, it is pretty. Just not as pretty as an FB. And no carb of course.

And you be nice to Flipper, he's been routinely returning 37 overall mpg for 8500 miles now. I listen to Rush Limberg and Shawn Hannity on the radio. What a hoot.

Maybe Dean seceded from the union, again.

Be careful what you listen to Ray. You listen to those 2 enough and you will have to be deprogrammed.

That 3rd gen is a beauty.

Are you thinking about going 13B a little earlier than planned Mike?

I actually have a lot of compassion for poor Rush and Shawn, I feel their pain and it's clear they're suffering a lot, their rants are so disjointed and emotional. Almost makes me wish they hadn't taken it on the chin so hard.

Also, listening to their extremist views makes better sense of the election sweep, which I was not expecting at all (I thought Romney would win and the elephants would take over the Senate and we would be doomed to go through another Republican Bubble/Democratic Recovery cycle).

Still, they're such passionate SOBs, and I feel really bad for all Republicans these days. Think about how sad Mitt must feel?

Its hard being a bleeding heart liberal.

John, what's "BEADS!!!!!!!"?

Good to hear you're on the mend Alex, thanks for posting.

And yeah, we want to hear all about it at the next OGTA meeting (if you can make it).

Ha ha thanks Ray for adding me but its the 31st (everyone is drinking or kissing someone on my B-day)
As for Dec. Meeting...... right now is not good financially for us and been doing as much as I can with the coast guard on my days off the fire house so probably not unless I sell something that way.

Any of you old guys remember my first FC? Over the weekend I finished stripping it out, and I thought I'd give it a little tribute:

When I first bought it:
Name:  <a href='https://www.rx7club.com/vindecoder.php?vin=JM1FC3312H0545300' rel='nofollow' class='vin_code' rel=JM1FC3312H0545300.jpg Views: 84 Size: 176.4 KB" style="margin: 2px" class="post_inline_image" />

A little later:

Views: 91
Size:  55.5 KB

A little later:
Name:  100_1878.jpg
Views: 84
Size:  93.6 KB

Before I popped the 3rd engine:

Size:  240.4 KB

And now:
Name:  20121111_155413.jpg
Views: 92
Size:  202.8 KB

It got up to 277,000 miles. 276,500 of those were on the stock non-turbo 13B. And around 65,000 of those were from me. It's been a fun time, Smokey.

Got it fixed Chad, thanks for the correction.

Brett, your car looks like a sardine after a cat got a hold of it.
