Thread: Deals Gap Rotary Rally

  1. #1

    Default Deals Gap Rotary Rally

    Since this is the OTM section I don't see why not I can't post up a few pics from my trip to DGRR 09. There were a handfull of miatas out there that weekend but i only managed snag pics of three and one was rotary powered, lol.

    Since I'm feelin' a lil lazy I just cut/pasted my pics from RCC, hope you like 'em:

    Very nice pics! Thanks for sharing. That Stormy Blue NC slammed with the RP03's is sweet. Saw another pic of it on the pointy board.

    WOW! Those are some great pics...

    That R100 looked super-clean... The 2-door rotary sedans (RX-3, etc) always gave me the warm fuzzies.

    That grey FC with the 5-spoke rims is sweet! My '86 GXL was, um, not quite so nice... li'l bit rusty in spots, but still fun.

    The slightly ratty GSL-SE reminds me of my "gold-digger filter" (new term I learned today) '84 GSL-SE - only MUCH nicer than the one I had. That thing was a piece of work - primer/beige/rust/loud/bent axle/bald tires/sloppy steering/block-long powerslides in the rain... and the air worked. Too much fun.

    When is Miatas @ The Gap???

    July 24-26, 2009

    Come and join the largest annual gathering of Miatas in the country! There will be vendors, free food, beer swaps, drives to area attractions (both natural and man-made), and of course... great roads, great people and great cars!

    You'll see Miatas in every state of transformation, from bone stock to barely resembling the original vehicle. If you ever wanted to know if something could be done to a Miata, you'll probably see it here!

    Vendors will be set up at Fontana as we are going to try expanding to new horizons. Show and shine will be just about everywhere there is to park and a few places in between.

    There will be drives to different locations, including Ellijay Road, waterfall tours, Fat Buddies BBQ in Franklin, and of course, The Gap!

    So come and sit a spell and relax with your new best friends. If you plan on staying the night, I might suggest calling NOW! Lodgings fill up quickly and if they're already full, ask about a waiting list.

    See you at the Gap!

    More info here.

    There was a 60k FB there in the same color, looked almost new and was one of my favorites of the weekend.

    That thing sounded great too, I wish I had gotten some video of it. She had a nice growl to 'er, lol.

    Haha, it's hard to believe that there are any ebay parts on that car. The pictures do it no justice, it was prolly the nicest 3 I've ever seen. The driver didn't wasn't all that bad either. :naughty:

    Thanks Rick. The R100 was a fresh restoration and I believe this was it's first outing, it's for sale if you're really interested. FC's have never been my cup of tea and I would never own one unless it was either that Titanium Grey FC with the 13B-RE swap or a 10th AE, lol.

    Haha, sounds like my first FB. The Texas sun had done a number on that thing and the 250,000+ miles had done the rest, lol.

    EDIT: Nails beat me to the punch, lol. I kinda want to go but I don't see it happening untill I go back for Deals Gap Rotary Rally. :/
