Phoenix7 will become famous soon enough
Default Signed up earlier today. This place looks good.



From The RX7club. I have owned rotaries since 18. Owned an S4 GXL, S5 GTU, S5 TII, and currently working on a GTUs turbo and an NA GTUs. I'm going to make a thread about the cars later so I'll go into mods and pics in those.

Dunno what more to go into. Been permabanned once from the evil forum, and I'm currently back there under this new name. I was on that forum since 2002 and I don't like the way it's changing. This place looks promising, I love the layout too.

I don't like stupid people, I love the rotary and don't hesitate to tell you what I think. I EXPECT to be corrected when wrong and I value input so whatever you have to say, just say it.

Here is the latest rotary related excursion:







EDIT: LOVING THE iTRADER!!

I got pulled over yesterday.

Light turned yellow, I was going to be blocking the intersection so I made a right instead. I did it, and accelerated away. the tires chirped, you know, when you turn and accelerate the rear makes noise. Well, there was a cop right there and he pulled me over.

Asked for all the stuff. Asks why I turned like that. Went on about how a 2500lb vehicle is hard to control especially when the tires break loose like I had done earlier. I told him I didn't wanna block the intersection so a I made the right. "it was a bad judgment call on my part."

He went on about how I'm not mario andretti and you never know when the tires are going to lose grip. Told me it was a 2 point violation, car could have been impounded and a $700 fine but he'd let me go.

No ticket.


So, here is the real point of this post. I always make sure the cop sees my hands at all times ( I say it makes them feel safer and not so ) and he when he asked for my license I told him I'd have to reach into my jacket to get it since I thought it was in the breast pocket. You know, the breast pocket, where cops freak out and .

My wife says I didn't need to say: "I have to reach into my pocket to get it" and wait until he said "go ahead and get it." She says it's weird and unnecessary since he asked for the ID already.

I say I'd rather make sure he knows and allows me to reach into a pocket than be shot at. Who is right? I''m still glad no ticket was issued.

wow... I'd say you did the best you could, and it couldn't have gone any better than it did save him just not pulling you over in the first place. He probably pulled you over because you made a sudden move while a cop was present, it's suspicious.

seriously, I'm liking this place a lot. Haven't been on the RX7club since I joined. Only to bring more people over here.

did redr1 send you?

Thanks though. I can't wait to get my project thread and add as much as I can to this place.


I gotta get used to this place more though. No more random :rlaugh: smilies for me, gotta learn the new one. I keep wanting to say: "here look at this link" but it's on the rx7club so i stop the post. That place WAS my second home for a long time. I've gone through, several FCs, girlfriends, a fiance and now a wife and the rx7club was always there in my browser getting me into trouble. A GF even came in to start shit (which Meddle loved BTW, that prick) and I never left because it felt like home to me. Then the new landlord (IB) came in and here we are. settling into a new, comfy home that looks and feels like the old one without all the BS.
