You know your a rotorhead when you know that the first Nissan S10 Silvias were Rotory-powered.

You know your a rotorhead if youve been to a Mazda Dealership to test drive an RX-8 even when your broke.

You know your a rotorhead when your 21 yrs old and buying tons of little RX7 toy cars.

You know your a rotorhead if ya got a tattoo of a rotor on yer ***.

You might be a rotorhead if...

You try to convince your friend to put in a rotary into his van just because the engine blew

No that's just because they are simple, which falls under the catagory "You might have a rotary engine"...

Being a rotorhead is a religion and way of life!

and you know you're a ROTORHEAD if you have to be at a rotary drive-in even though a hurricane is threatening to blow everything away.

Keep it coming, this is good stuff.
Every day.
Every day, even if it makes me late for work.
On my palm pilot... Bought a new one when the old one broke just to get my graph back.
2 weeks ago... and ended up adjusting the TPS on 3 other RX7's because nobody knew how to hook 2 LED's together.

If instead of angling your side mirror so you can see traffic, you move it slightly down, so you can monitor your fire output...

To clairfy Don & Barry's points, not all insane people own rotaries, just the most intelligent crazies, the rest own beetles or want to convert 10AEs to Caddy North Star engines!

If you stop at a dealership when you see someone looking at the 46k mile TII that's on it, just so you can make sure they know about rotaries... Then when you find out they don't, you totally wreck the deal for the salesman by telling the prospective buyer how complicated they are...

..if while waiting on your 7 to get back from the shop from a rebuild (took over a freakin month!!), you all of the sudden come across a mint conditioned 7 in the junk yard (who the f*** in their right mind would get rid of it ??!! It had NO RUST) and pray that you all of the sudden sell the other car so you can get all the good parts from it.

.... if your husband says that you have to drive his car, because all of the sudden he wants to make sure that it's broken in to his standards.. even tho you know more about the car then he does >.<




Sorry, I'm not that good at this.. but at least I tried :P
