Chico, CA roll call

I just saw a nice black S5 GXL on my way home from school today and yesterday I saw a champagne S4 on my way back from my mom's. I know there is Chue, Rotoober and myself but I was wondering if any other Chico RX-7 peeps were on here.

Redbluff is about 45 minutes north of Chico.

Is that the place on the East side of Main next to the river? That place is great! Nice to have something to eat other than Mexican. It is Red Bluff so I hope you look good wearing a cowboy hat.
I'm about 15 minutes south of Dead Bluff in Corning, I also have an Fd. Pm me when you get up here. Gadd has a red Fd and lives in Chico.

Thanks Matt. I will PM you for sure. You will see the FD parked right next to the restaurant on some days I guess. I've actually never been to the restaurant. I'm getting out of the navy this year, and my parents want my help. SO i guess I'll move north and help them, and probably go to Shasta. I don't wear cowboy hats though, but they'll just have to get used to me I guess. My FD is silver. I'm happy someone here has eatin at our restaurant. HAHA!

I went to Shasta for my AA as well, or Butte College is almost as close. I'm going out to dinner with my dad this weekend, think we'll hit your place. I've also got a silverstone Fd! And there is another one in Redding - JeffShoots I believe.

Stay away from Chico and MHopkins, he's from Oroville, ever seen the movie "Deliverance"? I think Hopkins also knows how to play the banjo.

I didn't know Karack went that way, at any rate, please don't line my junk drawer's with him.
Why don't you come over on Sunday afternoon and help me drop a motor in the ElCamino? I'll give you a samwich and beer!

thats me...i live in oroville. the only fc in oroville that yellow with incomplete project....soo funny when i first bought the car...when i first bought my dad was with me to see it its stilll in good condition but when he figure out that it was a rotary, he like you really want to buy this car, parts for this car is going to be expensive and hard to fix... i was like i still want it....i like it..disobeying my dad..but i was glad that i disobey him at that time too or else i would have still been looking for a car buy now..i was looking for 240 at first but after i saw the rx7 i feel in love with it....also my older was there too and also like it because of the color and tat its a rotary..

Hey Matt, thanks for the support! I really can't wait to meet you, and all we need now is a good camera to take picture of our cars next to each other. How far is Thunderhill from Red Bluff?

Jeff,

ThunderHill is about 40 minutes from RedBluff, great track to learn on and inexpensive (realitive to other tracks in Calif.)
Took the fam. out to eat last night and met your mom - food was great, and she was very nice. I can usually eat the hottest food anybody throws at me but the hot red curry taught me a lesson! Your mom is looking forward to your safe return, and we found our new fav. place to eat!

Matt

HAHA! Thanks for the support man. I really do appreciate it. Yeah, I get out of the Navy in July, and I'm really looking forward to being a civilian again. Man, 40 minutes is not that bad. Well, soon I will be able to finally take my car to the track and have some real fun. The longer I have this car, the more I appreciate its value, and the more I don't feel like street racing.

That's because it's been hiding in the garage. But shes got new RacingBrake two piece rotors and is all prepped to pass Rotoober at Laguna Seca.
