For those who didn't make it, you missed a great day. Six cars (RX-4, One Gen 1, Two Gen 3s and Two RX-8s) made the drive. Got caught behind some slow traffic heading up through Skull Valley into Prescott, but the post-lunch drive back down 89A was well worth the trip. The first 10 miles South of Prescott was traffic free and Sans police, so needless to say we were having FUN!!

Sorry for the lack of pics, but I had both hands on the WHEEL. Both Tom (Walling) and I were impressed by Karl's driving in that little copper Gen 1. I think if we had gotten out of his way he would have driven right past us. Again, great trip that thanks to everyone who made it out! Happy Halloween...

It was excellent.
Now I have to figure out why I have so much oversteer.

Yea,

Caught up with a Shinka that was NOT with our group on the Carefree Hwy just before we merged onto I-17. Never was able to get around them to wave, but I'm sure they saw the pack of us behind them. I think Maniac may have went around them once we split off at I-17 and the 101. Jeff, did you get any kind of positive reaction from the Shinka?

Got Brian's pics, and nice pics above from Uwhahn! It may have been a small drive but I bet it was more fun to keep everyone in a group than the bigger ones 'eh? I got a chance to observe Karl's driving skills on the way home from SevenStockX - he's kickazz! That little 7 just rocks it!

Looks like fun guys. I wish I could've joined you.

I can't say I even noticed him. I don't remember - once I got onto the other side of the 17, I was moving pretty fast.

I've been with the forums for a while, but never got involved yet, never thought anything of it. I drove my RX8 up to Jerome for a day, and it's an addicting drive. Keep me posted on upcoming events, PLEASE, after seeing the pictures, and fourms, they sounds pretty fun. Do we ever do the road between Prescott and Jerome? E-mail me or I'll be checking this forum

This Saturday, November 10th, the members of AZMC are meeting up at the Scottsdale Pavilions at 5pm.
We would love it if the RCCAZ folks would come hang out with us.
Obviously, there are a few of us that are affiliated with both clubs, so there are already some RCCAZ members that are signed up to go, but I'd like to see more rotary cars!
The weather will be perfect, no doubt!

Man that sucks, I work this weekend. I'm a waiter so Saturday is a money day for me. I'm definitly going on the 18th though, I just don't know where we are meeting, or what time we need to meet there, I sent poolsideaz a message and haven't heard anything back, anyone have any ideas? Also...I need window tint for my car, anyone know a good place with good prices? PM me, I'm sure this is the wrong thread for this

Hey who's going to the Turkey Trot? This is my first club drive so I'm pretty excited, hoping there is a big turn-out. Is it casual driving? or having some fun driving?

It's as much fun as we CAN have. Sometimes we get caught behind slow-moving traffic, but if the road is clear we usually turn up the volume

Thumbs up November 18th Turkey Trot!

Guess we should get a sign up going......

Everyone,

This Saturday, November 7th. RCCAZ has been invited to join the Arizona Mazda Club (AZMC) at the Scottsdale Pavillions for the regular Saturday night car show. Show time is 5 pm. Look for them in the RESERVED section just North of McDonalds.

Then on Sunday, November 18th, we’ll be heading out to Tortilla Flats for our Annual Turkey Trot run. Meet behind the Chevron and Waffle House just North of US 60 and Idaho Road between 9:30 and 10 am. Plan is to travel to The Flats for lunch (space permitting) and head back early in the afternoon. Our annual club picnic has been rescheduled to early 2008, so just come out, enjoy the day, and LETS drive!!

Tim

1. RCCAZ 1 - Tim
2. MazdaManiac - Jeff
3. BlackRX82006 -
4. swtblnde - Sue
