I vote REPU, but then again I'm old & weird.. and I'm probably also saying that so I'm not the only old school RX at the meet again. I'm not sure which car to bring either, most likely one of the RX-2s. Whichever one has the most gas at the time wins I guess. Also depends on the weather, if it's raining there's no way I'm driving the PP RX-2 as I'd like to live past Dec 12th.

I vote REPU also.
Smeagol- I would bring whichever RX can handle rain the best.

I would plan on light showers for that day as according to all the weather information I've found so far, there's a 40% chance of showers...
Dang weather people need to find a way to figure out the weather up to 3 weeks away rather than only 5-10 days...

If it does end up raining really bad then we can move the meet over to my house as I have a good sized pool room that we can all hang out in, as well as my BBQ is right there as well for the food.

Electrical...I was gonna take my car to Ben's to have the brackets made for the e-fan and have the turbo housing tapped for a vacuum source for the wastegate, but on the way there my car just shut off completely. I pulled over and there was smoke so I pop the hood, and find a fire by the turbo. The turbo was so close to the battery cable I had it melted the plastic off, then the wire grounded on my brake line and voila! Fire! First I emptied my fire extinguisher on the damn thing and it flamed up right away so I unhooked the battery as fast as possible. Then dumped my aquafina on the beezy and it stayed out..Brakes are so mushy they pretty much aren't there..the wiring harness was torched a little, but it looks fine to me.

Battery was fried and after having to wait like 3 hours for them to try to charge it after I told em it was fried I ended up just getting a refund since they didn't have any dry or gel cells there and I don't want a wet cell in the storage bin....so now I need a battery.

Brakes-I gotta try bleeding the front right side mainly to hope that it just boiled some air into it which is ******* me...if not I need to find a replacement. Was pretty funny...drove my car home using ebrake and downshifting to slow down...tons of backfiring

So...everything is done...just need to wait for my exhaust wrap to show up and run my battery cable along the firewall to avoid any new surprises....oh and the fan wasn't working when I left Ben's shop >< so we gotta look into that...it was okay on the way home though thanks to 45F temps outside and my new MASSIVE radiator

Yep, it's still set at 1:00 PM at the shop.

9822 Waterman Rd, Elk Grove, CA 95624

If it does rain then we can move it to my house so we have somewhere to sit and be warm as the meet was to be held outside which isn't possible to do in the rain...
