I would use 400 for most evening events Tim, but those Old Guys don't move too fast so 200 does the job.
Paul 13B-powered vehicles are considered honorary 12A's, not the Real Deal but well intended experiments that didn't really work like they'd hoped.
You should have held on to that GSL, nice looking car!
I got a pm from a new guy, name's John, lives in Buford, who has recently come into an RX-3.
He was asking about advice on tuning and I told him an OGTA meeting is the place to find it.
So hopefully he'll stop by tomorrow evening, with the RX-3 if it doesn't go into the paint shop this evening.
And I'm still trying to figure out who this guy is, hopefully he'll bring that sweet yellow SA to the meeting tomorrow night:
Is Billy still planning to show up in his Project X?
"Well intended experiments that really didn't work "...????hmmm. I didn't see any 12a rotors stacked up in fours winning LeMans!! Guess Carlos and I will have to start a new chapter.. We'll call it OGTB.. That way 12a guys can be "honorary" members of our new group... What ya say Carlos?!?
"OGTB" has already been considered Paul. So was "YGTB".
But "OGTB" and "YGTB" just don't roll off the tongue like "OGTA" does. 13B's have no magic.
So the 13B efforts failed, 12A's still Rule and we are still the Old Guys with 12A's Club Meeting.
On a historical note, the 106th monthly OGTA meeting, an unbroken string now in its ninth year, is tonight.
See y'all at the Taco Hack, film is in the camera!
I respectfully disagree having been to mid Ohio many times and only saw 13b's out there doing their magic.. Never saw a 12a out there.. Not enough *** to keep up.BUT I agree, OGTA does roll off the tongue quite nicely.. CARLOS!!! Help me out buddy!!

You have to remember that the last time Ray had a running rotary, the 13b had not been invented. The best rotary Ray has ever experienced has been the assless 12a, bless his heart...

Obtw.. Somebody should enlighten him to the magic of digital cameras too!! I was an amateur photographer and it was hard to trade my Pentax ME Super in when they came out but damn!!!, what a difference Ray!!! And you don't have to wait for the results!!!
All this talk but sounds to me like I have the only rx7 that'll make it to starting line!!! I can't race a bunch o nice parts!! Now you know why I don't wrench my own car.. It gets done faster when I'm handing the pros a beer and taking pics w my Olympus Evolt digital SLR😜😂..
I've got the Train Wreck 12A, And enough excellent rotors and rotor housings to build 4 more 12A's, one with street porting. All going into the White One III, an FB with magic and karma galore.
So now you are building a 10-rotor 60a? This I gotta see...
We wouldn't be able to use the parts in the Train Wreck 12A Tommy, that one is Sacred.
But we could do an 8-rotor 48A, would it fit in the Miata?
That is a nice picture Paul, especially for digital! Damn near emulsion quality.
I do like the Porche, not very pretty but a fine hunk of machinery.
But I like your FB a lot better.
We'll see who shows up tonight, it's always most impressive when there are a bunch of SA's and FB's.
And the Old Schools of course, they take the show.
But I'll take pictures of the FE's too.
Hey, did y'all hear that Ted Cruz's father helped assassinate President Kennedy?
It's true, they've got pictures of it. Trump's people uncovered the story.
Makes a lot of sense now that you think about it.
That porche looks like a FC to me.. Red, fat and slow. All kidding aside I found that 944 for my friend for only $2200.00 and not a speck of rust..only 56k on it too. I'd've bought it myself but ran outta room in my garage.
Next thing we'll have you in a REPU, or a carb'd FB at least.
I wish you were showing up tonight, we could use some insight at the Business Meeting on Republican politics.
I mean, if they know who killed Kennedy, imagine what else they know.
Headed out, no more comments from the Peanut Gallery until I load the pictures later tonight.
Ray besides you convincing me, just the thought of too much maintenance scared me away from FC's and D's.as for E's(?) I never really liked em. My buddy mike had one. I drove it. It was spirited but it just didn't feel right. I'm AOK right where I am. You guys have fun and be careful getting home tonight. Can't wait to see the pics.. How long we gotta wait for the pics to get back from Fotomat??
I've been in the darkroom since I got home an hour ago, should have them up by 1-2 am.
It was a fantastic meet! Not enough SA's and FB's but the New Guys and Old Schools made up for those deficiencies, promising even better things down the road.
The 5-3-16 OGTA Meeting was this evening and it was a good one.
A perfect blend of Old and New.
The highlights were Phil’s pristine Yellow SA, Gene’s now furless RX-4, Greg the Younger’s Tornado Gray FB and New Guy John’s Invisible Red RX-3.
(John, a crazy New Zealand guy, made his first OGTA appearance, but his RX-3 had a date with the paint shop. He promises we’ll actually get to see the RX-3 next time).
Phil in his FD days:

Some very pretty FD’s were there, Jeremy’s White One, Alex’s White Two and Brett’s Black One.
Also Fred showed up in his Black FC that Will Not Die and there was another Silver FC that looked pretty good too, plus Erica finally got her Red Vert to the show.
And Crit has a new ride, 4 wheels this time. He let me drive it. These FE’s aren’t so bad!
But Tommy was right, the place was infested with FE’s, in addition to Crit’s Blue One there was another Blue One and two Silvers, Holly’s and Tommy’s.
Cam brought his Red Miata, which he says has a turbo. But being a boinger it’s kind of hard to figure out what’s going on under his hood so I took his word for it.
Plus a Black Miata and another very nice Red Miata with all the bells and whistles:
