Nice dinner meet at Eaglebrook y'all!

Bruce, fun times comparing headlights on the highway! You a brave man to keep going past that cop on the side on the ramp to 128 north. Whoops :)

My snow tires are in! Yay! Time to wax 'em!

I have a few, if you want!

Awesome. I think you'll bounce back quickly. The most important thing is be sure to eat that soft freaking diet. Four days into it, scrambled eggs are good, but be real careful eating whatever you eating (don't chance nothing). Better spend an extra week on that soft diet than dislocate the clot and get a dry socket. Once you over that time limit, keep rinsing like the doctor says and keeping the sites clean and you'll soon forget all about it.

yesss...silver? :D If not, I'm totally tracking one down. Oh and I emailed that customer.
 
I wish I fit in the miata...any of them. Good times everyone! We'll catch you next time Ryan. Are you coming on Sat?
 
i just read something interesting in autoblog.com

We've been hearing rumblings about a Mazda RX-7 revival for so long, we've almost gotten numb to the idea of a next-generation, rotary-powered coupe. But Mazda's new design chief, Ikua Maeda, has given us a desperately needed hope injection when he told Autocar that initial sketches have been completed and he's campaigning Mazda execs to bring the new sports car to market.

The reborn RX-7 will likely be powered by Mazda's next generation Renesis 16X rotary engine, most recently seen in the Mazda Taiki concept, displacing 1.6-liters and making use of a longer stroke, direct injection and aluminum side housings. Outputs haven't been disclosed, but it's safe to assume the new mill will put out around 250 to 300 horsepower and a sizeable increase in torque, while boosting fuel economy and reducing emissions (and hopefully burning less oil in the process).

Maeda says the new RX-7 will move further upmarket than its predecessors, with a focus on higher interior quality going forward. Fine by us, but we hope a hardcore, track-focused version is in the cards as well. And if Maeda is to be believed, we could see the fruits of his labors in concept form as early as next year.


Does anyone see anything wrong with what I've bolded?

Great dinner. Yes, lol did not see him till the last minute. Your HIDs are way too low. Mine lit up the road better, even though they are not HIDs.

eagle brook FTW! good times for shua! nice seeing you all again, it's been a while

Yup. Great looking car Mark. You've got a nice clean MSM. Now about that horn.

Good to see everyone. Haven't got together in awhile.

Ryan, sorry we missed you. You need to check here more often.
 
Ash, I have another silver but it has Mazda 3 on it. No more Zoom Zoom. Gave them all away.

Longer stroke FTW! ;)
 
Morning NEPOCR's, Day number two and i cant open my mouth more than a half inch, sore and stiff from sleeping. I'm sure once I get going take my meds it'll be better. How's everyone else doing this AM? The wife took the PRO5 today so let's see what she does to it today. She has managed to kill my battery twice, run out of gas, but a dent in my door, Scratch the right side, and She said She didn't know how!
 
Oh yea...good morning from Cape Cod!

Yeah, I need to aim them up.

Yah, I'll text you Ryan next time.

16X really does have a longer stroke. It'll have more torque. The internal name for that engine is the "long stroke engine."

Beautiful view from my desk today:

I guess... I personally can't put the word "stroke" to an engine that just spins. So the combustion chamber is elongated. I can dig that. When I think "stroke" in an engine, I think of the distance the piston travels. That's just me tho.
 
I did last night. Lol

Speaking of beer....boycott Monster Energy Drinks!

Easily done. I've never liked any of those energy drinks. They taste like battery acid and I feel like I'm going to die after I drink one of them.
