I'm OK with getting rid of the lame asses...

That sucks about the M3. I know how he feels. My FD was backed into Saturday night at the pizza dinner. I'm almost positive it was the truck parked in front of me. It cracked the nose and put a 4 inch scratch in the paint.

It sad that people like doing stupid stuff like that ruin things for everyone else.... shouldn't have to be worried about your car getting keyed at an event full of people who all share a love for their cars. It doesn't matter whether the car is a rotary or not its a nice car no matter what. You would think people would respect that, being at a car event. Its just sad. Hope you find out who did it.

So yesterday I found a scratch starting on the passenger front fender, running the length of the car, stopping just before the fuel door.

I don't know if it is coincidence, or if the Volvo was a victim as well.

WTF...
For an event that's gaining a lot of steam and is potentially getting picked up by Mazda USA, someone REALLY wants it to die in terms of a public event...

I'm sure Mazda would love to sponsor an event where it's patrons were destroying property...

Playing a harmless prank on close friend vs. what it appears to be hatred towards non-rotary vehicle is unacceptable at DGRR.

DJ, can you post picture(s) of your scratch? I'm also wondering if its possibly the cause of a tree branch or some random things on the road that might of cause this issue.

Either case, if its in fact cause by some idiot deliberately keying piston engined cars, I'm going to give one more year and if we have another round of this kind of BS, I'm going to make this event INVITE ONLY and with very selective criteria (age, how long you've owned your car, etc). I rather have less people whom are more serious about the event than try to have as many people as possible. I'm sure some of you also agree with this as I'm sure you yourself don't want to watch over your shoulder all the time by bringing your daily because your car isn't ready. I'm also going to check my TL to see if I've got some sort of damage from all this.

I am kinda wondering the same thing. My scratch looks like it starts a little aggressive, then gets lighter. But I have never had a shrub make a scratch like this.

I will get some pictures tonight when I get home from work, I drove the RX-8 today.

I just remembered something.

Adler, do you remember Jess talking about those guys that were really aggressive about him getting his bikes away from the lodge cause it was a "rotary event"?

I wonder if it could be related...

Not at all but i also don't see how anyone could be "aggressive" towards jess. I'll ask zach to talk to jess maybe he remembers what they look like or something.
