Any time sunday is good for me. As long as we get a set time and it isnt flip-flopping until the day of the meet. haha So if you make a list, add me to any time that we decide on. lol

There are plenty of gas stations down the street on Calaveras Rd. in Milpitas. A Shell and an Arco. Also, Dave n Busters is like 5-10 mins from the base of the road. Heck my house is like 15 mins from the base of the road lol.

The Berryessa meet was 125 miles for me, and that was just to the meeting place. Ended up being 310 miles round trip...It was the first time my car broke 20 MPG

Lol ive only had my car 4 months and its inly been legal about a week and a half. So i dont have a ton of seat time in my 7. So 80 miles is a venture to me as im not sure how the car will hold up. But what better way to test it than to, well, test it on an 80 mile one way journey to the bay to cruise wuth other car guys. Haha

Yeah the only issues i.had with it was a fried wire coming from the altenator and it not charging the battery. And running off the batt. Until it keels over. But a new alt and some wiring and its been running great ever since.

But thats to be expected when you run around with barely legal rx7s, always gonna get you in the wallet just like barely legal girls do. Lol

I got friday the 25th off for this. Sat and Sun are a bust for me because I have to close both nights. I am down for anywhere as long as I have the time to do it.

Our vehicles are more efficient than those pieces of ugly junk.

Two things..

One, all the resources that went into making those took energy to make
And two, battery acid is way more toxic than our exhaust
Oh and they're way too quiet

Just sayin.
