Yeah, I saw that also. It was parked at the end of the parking lot. Btw, I have also seen your FD parked at Sam's Club a few times and driving around Vacaville.

How is it going Preston? Lol, not sure who owns the red FD, but yeah, I have seen your FD at Sam's Club twice I believe. Both times parked towards the front of the store. I waited to see/talk to the owner, but missed them both times.

I was going to make you wonder for a bit on who the FD belonged to, but I couldn't resist posting. I own the orange FD, and to answer your question. I normally do not bring her out a lot. She is primarily my weekend car, but I do take her out during the week every so often. You have not seen her around b/c I just got her up and running. I have been working on her since Feb '05. This weekend was really the first time I brought her out. Mainly b/c I was supposed to meet up with Jackie, Alex, and Gabe, but it did not happen. You may know them. We may meet up this Friday night though.

Since I have just got her up and running, I have not really done much to her. Currently, the only mods I have are the Greddy SMIC and piping, Rx7 Store downpipe, and Koyo Radiator. The HKS Super Dragger was already on the car, along with what you saw when I bought it.

Btw, how did you see it? Did you drive by it or walk up to it? I was outside for quite sometime smoking at the side of the building before going in. I really did not see anyone pay much attention to her.

*Sorry for the long post.

Preston, the guy who showed up to the big meet in Vacaville was from that area. He has a red FD and has some nice mods done to it. I can't remember his name or his forum name. I feel like an *** because he was really cool.

Alex and I are usually always at Mels. Alex drives the 86 Corolla and I drive the white FC. We parked next to you at the Vacaville meet. You can't forget Alexs replica. Jackie *VR FD* should be at Mels to this Friday. Preston and TT_FD3S, you guys should come out and we can all meet up there.

Preston,

Well I am glad you like the car. I think I remember seeing your parent's SUV parked near me. I was randomly looking at all the cars, trying to remember who parked near me incase something happened. We were there for an hour and I think I came out like three times to check on her. My wife thinks I am **** for doing that, but hey, she is my pride and joy. When we came out there was a big *** truck parked next to me, and I was like wtf. Out of all the places to park they park next to me.

Yeah, I have seen the NorCal 7s thread and I may show up. It all depends if I am going to Reno or not. Pm me your #, one that you are reachable at, so I can let you know.

Did that VR FD you saw have a wing on it? I wonder if it is the same one I have seen a couple times in Benecia. The one I have seen is stock looking also.

Marc
