I just recently moved to the Raleigh area to go back to school. I work at Crossroads Exxon and I always bring my FD to work. I've seen a couple rotaries around town. I'm still learning about the rotary, so talking to some informed individuals is always a goal of mine if anyone ever wants to stop by and chat.

I'm in Durham. I have a 1985 RX-7 S. Completely stock. Who all is in the area? I saw a red first generation RX-7 near Crabtree lake on Sunday. I was in my truck, though. Wish I'd been driving the RX-7 that day....

Anyway, is there anyone in the Raleigh / Durham area? What about good RX-7 experienced mechanics?

thanks!
Jonathan

I'm still in the area and will go anywhere you just name the time and the place. I still have my 89 but I now have a 90 vert that I hope to have running this spring. Dreyko are you still around the Holly Springs area? I think I saw you a few months ago in your FC.

Depends on the weather for me. If it's sunny, I can probably be there. What time?

I've got 2 or 3 other people interested, just trying to figure out what time would work best for everyone. I'm free all day, mainly because I want some damn onion rings.

OK, I'm going to be parked (88 Convertible, not the 91 Turbo) in back at Fat Daddy's at 2pm. If you can show up fine, if not I'm eating all the onion rings by myself.
