**MALAYSIA JULY 7th ...7/7: When all RX-7s come out to play
Malaysian rotary nuts pay respects to the auspicious 7/7, where RX-7s everywhere congregate while they share their wankel experience. It all started in Japan, when RX-7 fanatics decided to gather at the Daikoku Futo car park in Tokyo.
Nothing much has changed apart from the increasing number of faithful attendees at the exact July 7th annually.
From the RE Club Malaysia:
Dear members,
Our 7/7 gathering will be held on 11/7/10 (Sunday) at Melaka, same time with the 7/7 gathering in Japan. As it is the day that all the RX7 owners waiting for so do not miss it.
I have spoken to Joewe with the plan on 7/7 and I got the green light to go so let’s do it!
We have 15 RX7s participating on 7/7 and we are looking more to join us, other cars are welcome to join us for the gathering (we are looking approximately 40 cars)
Current itinerary for the day:
Meet up point will be set at MIMC (Melaka International Motorsports Circuit) at 9.30 a.m. (right after the Ayer Keroh exit.
Then we will travel to MITC Melaka for convoy photo shooting
After the photo shooting we will then have lunch at Equatorial Hotel which located in the heart of Melaka, I’ve spoken to the management and they agree to provide us parking lots up to 50 cars!

Funny cuz rotary RX-8s are sold in Arizona and other hot areas in the world... Its just we dont have decent mechanics here and if theres one he'd charge you plenty...chew wrote:too bad no rotary engine heat here in dubai~
The tuning scene in Malaysia is amazing... I do not believe my eyes... & cars are quite pricey to own there along with the fuel yet i got to see some of the most gorgeous & cleanly done jap tuner cars in KL city.. Gotta love the silvias there also... oh and the tiny colts with turbos driving around ...
