you know what happens when you assume..

so im gonna ask.. will there be one this year..

i dont think so , or who knows ???? anyway i hope i finish my car just in case, what ever is u mean

Amp if you run it I'll definatly go LOL

dont have the time and patience unfortunately to manage somethin like that...

and the venue id be providing wouldnt interest folks anyway... road course or perhaps autocross..

and considerin the complaints on costs last year.. doubt anyone would shell out the expense for this type of event..

people are ******* pussies idk how u could expect to bring 10 bucks to a track. oh and road coarse ftmfw!!!! idk but maybe we should start our own get together

i don't know. i'm pretty disappointed with everything



anyone have any ideas ?

They won't, if you charge enough to make it worth your while people will bitch constantly. Look at all the "rotary events" that had course events.... they've all but dissappeared. Also to ANYONE thinking of taking the reigns, assuming vosko wants to go that route, I am sure he'll will issue a similar warning, running an event like this is pretty much like running this crap hole, not only is a thankless job, you'll have people bitching at you no matter what you do and you better be ready to take more abuse then the thanks you get in return. The road to agony is no doubt paved with good intentions, but thick skin and the ability to be an ******* when necessary are far better traits then good intentions (yes, I know you yer saying to yourself I posses both and yer right ) https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.gif



It would be sad to see the event go away, but i understand and wouldn't hold anything again jon for hanging it up.

i may do an invite only BBQ, with armed guards/bouncers



that would be awesome https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif

true phins.. missin the late 90s when the rotary road course events were abundant..

clientele back then... for the lack of a better description.. were mature

although theres a handful that may remember the last rotary track event debacle in the late nineties that cost a lot of folks hundreds..

me included.. needless to say.. that was the start of the downward spiral of track events available for rotary enthusisasts..

minus of course.. the mazdarivers events bein held every year...

hmmmnn.. theres an idea..

Well it did start as a bbq, then car show/bbq, then car show, then car show/track day and then....

i think it should take a year off and come back next year old school style.



good eats and nice cars, and a "we're all a family" atmosphere.



after the sussex county fair one i stopped going, i could see the downward spiral coming lol. once you bring it to a racetrack the mindless morons showup to brag about their 16 second cars with all the free mods they did to it.



amp, my fd should be running again soon, we should get some guys together for a trip to VIR, maybe some porsche group or something wouldnt mind us jumping on board if they rented the track. I'm down for VIR in a heartbeat.



kevin.

i love VIR but its 500 miles each way.... i am going there for a few drift comps again this year

Im up for anything on a smaller scale.

One of the reasons I always liked these cars is because there will never be one next to you at a light.

I dont care of the entire country wants to read about the cars- they dont care either.

I dont also dont want to be the minority at a huge car show with how few will come.

I pretty much think no matter what the event is you will peak where RF was- thats less then 175 cars or so.

Another few hundred cars are not going to magically appear and attend.



And sadly if sevenstock has had no influence on how mazda does things then nothing will.

Fact of the matter is mazda does not care about people keeping thier old cars going, they want people to buy NEW cars.

yea i laughed out loud literally when i read the comment about thinking mazda will notice. HA. good one, they dont care at all, hell if anything all our modified cars make them look bad in the general public's eye.



kevin.

im up for a hooters meet.

I'm greatful with whatever you guys cook up. I need a ******* RX7 this year ><

I'm waiting for my "live in NC for 30 day" rule to expire so I can get a state ID and apply for my concealed weapon permit...I'll come and eat and be a bouncer https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.gif

august 22-24.. njmotorsports park.. local and new track

cost is 450 with the bmwcca club. anyone interested..

lets go out and stretch some legs.. great for newbies.. its a driver school program..

i think im free those dates. if i am, id like help with 2 things before hand. need expert help on "dialing in" my suspension. and wouldnt mind driving a car with a maval rack before hand to see if i go ahead and get one or not. any ideas?lol

you have big wheels and tires. its gonna suck with a manual rack



i'm still up in the air about what i want to do ....



we should goto VIR then goto dave's new shop https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif

I doubt I'll have money for racing, but I still vote for a BBQ this year. Make it an old timers meet or something. Anyone that was at rotorfest1 can come haha.

well where is a good place to bbq? i dont want to deal with having it in my town again if possible

Thats the question... I can't really think of any place by me with a large parking lot and a grill. Maybe a state park or something...

Aw man, I used to live in Sussex County, NJ. Hamburg, that's my hometown, I was born in Newton. I miss Jersey, If there is anything going on up there for Mazdas, Let me know. Please. I would love to have an excuse to go home!!!!!!!

Hey, Hi, Hello everyone!!!





Been a while, quite a long while.





So I see an idea I had 2 years ago is starting to see the light of day....



We all know Rotorfest got too big, and lost it's purpose. With that in mind, I would really enjoy getting all the "old school" guys back together for a little invite-only BBQ. Kinda like a rotary class reunion https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.gif



What you guys think? Keep it small 50 or under cars, no trophies, no racing. Just us hanging out, shooting the ****, and eating some burgers. I have some spots in mind that we could use.





Jay

im all game!



**** trophies and all that ****

say when... nice sig jay..

when? lol jk im soo down when ever as longs as its a sunday when i dont have work

james

im in north port at least twice a year. i miss FL...

just need a date and time



kevin.

btw- you got my message that I have your bars ready right?

Love it Jay. Remember when you're sending out invites... I was there when your engine blew at that bus depot by Sandy Hook. I WAS THERE MAN!

IN response to the guy from North Port, i live in the next town over. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif Port Charlotte. But certainly, if anyone knows where a meet is, let me know.

how bout liberty state park... nice backdrops.. boats.. new york skyline.. lady liberty... etc

Thanx Jio, XB is for sale if anyone is interested in a super clean Ice Cream truck wrapped in some Work's https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif

A Sunday in May or June? Whats good for everyone?

HA HA I didn't even know that video existed.

hey hey now I have a fully running driving FD, its just not as nice as my non-running car lol, which i swear by my life i will finish this year lol, once my tax rebate comes I can afford my new radiator then its pretty quick and easy to get 'er running.



I got your msg about the bars, I'm trying to get to enzo this week or next, is he open on saturdays? Should I tell him you sent me to him or whatever? I really need the FD tuned this month if not this week, I was hoping to drop it off for at least a full day so he can give it a nice full tune session.



let me know.



Also ill post somer pics of high point for you guys, very scenic, outdoor grills and picnic tables, fishing/swimming and best of al NO ONE IS EVER THERE, except some bikers now and then lol, wed have it all to ourselves basically.
