SevenStock, the annual gathering of Mazdafarians at the company’s USA headquarters, is coming. This year the event will feature Mazda’s 24 Hours of Daytona endurance racers, including 1979’s winning RX-7 and this year’s winning RX-8. Drivers from both teams will be there, meeting the fans.

Sorry for the short notice, but this just came down the wire. Tomorrow, August 23, will be the NJ Z Club’s annual show in Bridgewater, NJ. Looks like last week of August in Joisey is shaping up to be old school central with the Team Toyminator Old School Toyota show coming up the following weekend (see next post). For more information, go to NJZClub.com.
UPDATE: JNCer QuasiMondo has posted pics of this show. Click here.

Subaru’s 50th Anniversary tour, the Fan! Fan! Festival, recently made a stop in Osaka, Japan and the 360s came out to celebrate. That WRC Blue pedal car is probably not much smaller than an actual 360.

Think there aren’t any nostalgics left on the east coast? Think again. If one New England old school cah gathering isn’t enough, here’s another: the Old School Toyota Club of Bridgeport’s annual bash on August 17. Check out OSTCBPT for details.
If the northeast is too far for you, how about Hotlanta? Nostalgists from Georgia are holding a meet on Saturday, August 16. Check this forum thread for details. It’s good to see that Cali isn’t the only place with a pulse!

Just a quick reminder for those in New England this weekend. The Larz Anderson Auto Museum in Brookline, MA is having their annual Japanese Car & Motorcycle Day on August 17. It’ll be one of their summer lawn events with the beautiful museum as a backdrop. Doors open at 10am and (get this), Sapporo Beer is a major sponsor! If you have any questions, be sure to ask your fellow JNCer TSiSS350, who is also one of the organizers.
