The Club did well out of this months magazine, take a look at Ian Hillary\'s car in the forground of our stand.
Ross\'s white car is shown as well in this link.

And at the bottom some of the cars that will be invited to Rotorstock from the times they posted.

Yeah nice article Clive. Do you know how many 3rd Gen RX7s have been sold in Japan? And also current count over here? I think the last count was 450 ish, but that was before the real import boom.
Also we really need to get are fingers out, if a rotary is gonna be fastest at Rotorstock, there are some seriously fast Skylines out there!!!

Only numbers I\'ve seen are just under 52K units for the JDM and just over 69K in total - not sure how accurate that is....

I would guess numbers must\'ve doubled since the last DVLA check - Clive? May be we should have a sweep stake and get the answer from Swansea :D

There were 500 over here 3 years ago when l did a search with the DLVA but that was before the Fast n Furious was released as a result of this  l believe 1200 ish now ?.

When I announced the plan for Rotorstock at the AGM [where was you ] one comment was do we want to see all them Skylines winning, my answer was you have 6 months to build a car !, l really do hope this meeting inspires more people to build quick Rotarys over here.

All the best Clive

Just thought Rich are we going to see a 3 Rotor big Turbo Gen 3 run in May, nothing like a target date to get things happening.
