DFW RX-7 May 2011 Meet
Back from DGRR, now lets get the local party started
WHO: Lovers of heartburn inducing BoJangles food (and I don't get heartburn :() WHAT: Rotary Meetage WHERE: 635 and MacArthur BLVD in the parking lot behind Cheddars/McDonald's WHEN: Saturday, May 7, 2011 @ 8:00PM I'll probably only be there for an hour because someone from my "extended family" is coming back to TX from NY for her birthday. BTW.... for Andrew: http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._4806381_n.jpg :rofl: |
If your rx7 isn't done, I'm not coming. JK. I may shoot out there around 8.
|
I'm going to miss this one. Car is on jack stands and in many pieces.:)
|
Well, if Gilbert can't make it, so will I.
|
I'll be there for once!
|
I'll be there, but only as a spectator,
Looking forward to seeing some RX's again. Been too long sense I've heard a good one up close. Gotta love that sound. |

I started mine up today for the first time in months. Started fine. This started loosing coolant at a massive rate from behind the rear turbo:(. But hey it started fine and idled fine. so I will take what I can get. |
I should be there. Beware, I'm bringing my piston power this time, though.
|
Unfortunately I won't be there. I arrived back to Cali this evening. :)

I'll be at Cars and Coffee Saturday morning. We had a good display of RX-13's last month. The more the merrier. Starts at 8:00 a.m. See you there, hopefully. :) |
It seems that early summer = cars on jackstands.
Mine is also getting worked on as well, so I will not be going. Plus finals are next week for me. BTW please check out my other post. |
I might jump to the dark side and buy a RX8, so I can go to club meets where members show up. Come on people, fix your 7's.

Long live the curse of the RX13!!!! |
Lol thanks for the pic EJay that still has me cracking up. I should be there as long as the nasty clunk noise goes away when I put the stock front swaybar back on. I broke my new (to me) modular Racing Beat front bar on the mountain somewhere. Glad it happened at the end of the trip though. I was definitely putting the car through alot of abuse :)

Andrew I think this photo turned out pretty good considering it was from a cheap camera and hanging out of a window. http://i887.photobucket.com/albums/a...202011/055.jpg A little photoshop would make it even better. |

Yeap, mine was running great but all those parts piled up in my garage were getting to me. I knew that it was going to be down for a while with the little time that I have available to work on it. Hopefully she be running in a couple of weekends if I get all the parts I ordered.:)

I believe, in most cases it's operator related issues which curse the "RX7". I see so many halfass modifications on "RX13's" that cause problems. Do your research and do it right the first time. :nod:
|
Pending.... I'm trying to trade shifts with my co-worker.
|
I might stop by tomorrow night. I have to go to Lewisville anyways...

Hrm, I might miss the meet tonight. Some friends in Fort Worth require some of my equipment and I reckon by the time I'd make it back out to Irving it'd probably be a rolling "hi!bye!" to be on time out to Dallas for my extended family's birthday.
|
Change of plans, gonna miss this one. See y'all next month.
|
Well I had to work on my car up at my job until 730 tracking down my brand new coolant leak! Yay I'm so excited! Well actually I am because I thought it was coming out from between the housing and front plate, but was instead coming from the water pump housing where it meets the block. So....poo. I don't feel like risking anything happening till I get it fixed. Will see you guys next month. Also we need more people out at cars and coffee next month... I know it's early but I think it's worth it.

Sorry you are gone! |
^^^^^^^^ I fixed your signature. :icon_tup:
In an RX13, everyday is like a Holiday ****** In a Holiday you spend and get more in debt ****** The RX13 is - The Anti-Original Volkswagen Beetle (the car of the people) ****** You will never see an RX13 parked out side a psychiatrist office, because you can't afford it owning one. ******* Read somewhere here, FD = Financial Disaster |
:fawk:You all suck, except for Alan and Cameron. And the two new guys (sorry, bad with names) that showed up, whom I'm sure we failed to impress with our massive (NOT) attendance.
Especially AJ. I dig through my bins of FB crap to find this thing, and where are you? :dunno: No distributor for you!:) |

If your '7 is down, come out anyway - we mostly shoot the sh... er, breeze as it is. Heck, several people <cough>EJ<cough> haven't brought out a '7 in months. AJ kept bringing a frickin' Miata until last month. At least it was a Mazda...:lol: |
I was the other "new" guy with the black T2. It was good to hang out with you guys and I'll try to make it to the next one.
Oh yeah, my name is Chris by the way... don't worry, I'm horrible with names too. |
I forgot all about it....I need the meet threads posted more than a few day's prior to a meet. you know, to build up the excitement.
I finally have my car registered and inspected and completely forgot the date. I was up in Denton at a crawfish boil all day Saturday. See you guys next month....the 4th, right? |
Why don't we have a single thread that is titled something like "DFW Monthly Meet" ? So that it will be easier to check.
Just a suggestion. |
Plan to make the next one. Finally got the car started last weekend, just got to but everything back together. Just sitting in the garage the oil cooler upgrade made a BIG difference in temps.:icon_tup:

Just a suggestion. Nope, I usually wait for the Sonnen Von Ware to post it first and then I'll stick it to the top with the standard green arrow to draw attention to it. Because of a downed and then hard formatted PC, I missed a lot of action this past month on this website and missed this thread completely. I'm back in the saddle now, though, so it won't happen again. Missing a thread that is...the meets are always rough to get to since my wife, family and friends all ignore my repeated requests to not plan dinners or parties on the first Saturday of the month....consistently. :cool: |
