Looks like you guys have a lot of wankels! Real Old School wankels!

 

huh huh, Hey Beavis, huh huh, ha huh huh, huh huh ha, one time, huh huh, this chick, ha huh huh, was... looking at my wankel. huh huh, huh ha huh............Two more weeks (august 16, saturday) until the meet....hope to see some more rotaries, Glc's, 626's etc

 

im definitely going to bee there but i dont get off work till 3pm

 

^^Cool, looking forward to meeting you. Are some of the OG/TA's coming out?

 

I'm not sure you want that many wankel's walking around Dave, might make your pistons look kind of silly.

 

that's kinda the idea aint it?

 

Dave don't take us too seriously, we are kind of partial about our rotaries! They still count as Old School Japanese don't they? Looking forward to checking out some Datsun's and old school Honda Civics!

 

Question from an OG@TA:

"so, is this a bring your own food, BYOB thing? are there grills available?"

 

the first post mentions a grill. i'll probably eat before i get there. besides as usual i'll need to leave to get back here by 7 or so cause i never know if my in-laws will bring my kids by.

 

Got this email from the organizer of this meet at Importatlanta after RSVP-ing

Thanks for replying, we look forward to seeing you guys up there. We expecting in excess of a hundred quest or so. Right now we are planning to provide hot dogs, chips and drinks. We were unable to secure a pavillion, so the grilling will be done on the grill's supplied by the park. If a pavillion opens up by three we will move everything over to it. If you would like to bring something to throw in the pot, that is more than welcome. We will have a photographer up there to take photo's of both indavidual cars and groups of cars. We are planning several different shooting locations around the park, so shine up your cars and we will get them shot. Just find someone in a (green) Zero Garage shirt and they will help you find me.

We will be shooting at dusk also, once the sun starts to set and the sky glows orange.

look forward to seeing you there....

awesome meet! got back at 8:30, had a really great time, meeting new faces. just have to remember to start getting return directions. should have asked those that left when i did if they were going back to 85. i stopped and asked what the quickest way was and ended up 20 exits farther up 85 then i wanted which added probably another 30 min to the drive time. hope the guy with the bent axle made it back alright, as too everyone else. talked quite abit with the guy with the repu. seems he's already had good results with a holley tbi setup on a rotary, but it was the 2bbl version. got me even more excited about getting mine going. but like i told him, it being my only car, it's kinda hard to do things to it and drive it everyday too. that rx3sp was just badass. i didn't see him take one off, but that engine wont last long running it with no air cleaner on it. and what kinda muffler was on the rx4? and i thought mine was loud.
