Re: BEAULIEU SIMPLY JAPANESE - 28 Jul 19
Yeah I was hoping to give the car a wash today. Spitting pretty consistently all day so far. So may not be very clean. You'll probably hear loud turbo noises when I'm nearby 
. Gotta prepare a bunch of stuff and get the car ready. Think I'll be bringing my own snacks to this one - makes life easier haha.
See you guys tomorrow morning!

Exceeded all expectations, wonderful weather, a Yellow RX 4, great location, loads of Rotors together with like minded people & 6 different Rotary cars. A big thank you to Malcolm & the RX8 OC for hosting it.

Re: BEAULIEU SIMPLY JAPANESE - 28 Jul 19
Great pictures Pete Love that puzzle too 
Huge thanks from me to everyone who came along yesterday. It made the work for the organisers feel worthwhile when the day goes well and we have good feedback. I certainly had a great day looking around and chatting to people on the stand. I hope this is also something we can do more of in the future, bringing together cars and owners from a variety of Mazda Rotary associated clubs. The RX-8 OC organised the stand, but we had people attend with affiliations to the MRC, FDOC and, of course, rx7fb.com
It was fantastic to have so many Mazda rotary models represented on the stand, from Clive Haynsford's RX-4 through to the RX-8 R3.
Our pretty good timeline display of the RX-4 through the FB, FC and FD models managed to attract the attention of the show's commentator, Tim Watson.
Somehow, I got volunteered to be the spokesman for the stand, being interviewed by Tim, who is producing a video of the day. Hopefully, some of the stuff I spouted (hopefully mostly accurate!) will find it's way into the final edit. It's amazing how your brain goes dead when a mic is suddenly thrust in your face though
If the video is any good, I'll post a link here. If it's rubbish, I'll go hide somewhere!
I have some photos which I'll post up soon, in the meantime, here's a taster.
But again, thanks to everyone who came along to make it such a wonderful day out

Looks like it was a really good show, shame it was a bit too far for me last weekend but maybe next year.
Good photos there, can't wait to see Jesses 13BT conversion at retrorides and I think we should ban Pete's TII from attending the RRG..... put's us all to shame with that immaculate engine bay... I bet they weren't that clean when they left the factory.
