I will be there. The FD is still down, so I will be driving my TR6 and parking in a British car corral. My father will be meeting me in his Austin Healey 3000.

I'll be sure to stop by and say hi if I notice any RX-7's.

[ROTORX7Holly]

Hopefully I can get a corral for us and you can stop by.

Edit: I just looked and I have an Auto-X on sunday so ill see what happens, if the STi is ready by then I may not make the Mitty this year but I could go Saturday and leave that night to go to the Auto-x on sunday. We will see.

Im going to try to go dont know if the 7 will be drivable but then but Im hoping. If not Im not sure what ill be in as the STi is not drivable right now either do to front end damage. Im gonna try to go anyhow regardless of what I drive.

[ROTORX7Holly]

umm.. Front end damage on the STeye?

You should come out on Saturday, at least. Chard and Ian are doing the track touring laps. Phil might come over to hang with the Mazda peeps.

[dregg100]

i want to do the track touring laps too, but the question is i thought they got rid of that? i plan to go, but i wont know until the week of.

[ROTORX7Holly]

Come on down Mason. Track Touring is $35 for one day or $50 for two days.

[Proxy One]

Well yeah I have some damage to the STi, I am waiting on the insurance adjuster to come out and look at it so I can get the parts to fix it myself. Probably gonna get some carbon fiber parts out of it.
