Edit: Right now Weather.com says it will be cloudy and warm during the day, then raining at night.

LOL .. Same here ... I am just praying that birds dun poop on my baby .. (It is like she has a sign for bird that says poop here :squint: I have always had bad luck with birds LOL. Anyways as Slayer said.. it'll be a nice day or looks like it.. see ya all there.

i saw you guys there, i dont know if you saw me, nice wheels dan


this was me

yes i did see you...but you drove off!

I saw your car parked on the lot.. I had to park mine damn near up in the woods. I showed up at t he Safeway lot at 1145 but all the 8's were gone?

Anyway it seemed sort of disorganized for setting up the vehicles, some of the guys said they didn't have a spot for the Mazda's.

The girls were hot though....:)

sorry i left so fast, im kinda shy and i dident know who owned the rx8's. I asked a group of guys if they were the owners of your 8's but they said no. They also said "i wish, id give my left nut for an 8" haha. nice cars guys, i saw that shinka as well. First one ive ever seen. BTW there was a titanium gray across from you guys parked where the go carts were. Does anyone know who that is? i had a titanium gray appearance package in my car that i had removed when i installed the mazdaspeed kit. Im letting it go away for cheap.

Yeah, we were a bit disorganized heading up there, but we had 6 of us heading up from the Safeway, we just lost one of them getting out of the parking lot. Thats what happens when the person leading the pack is the only one with a turbo. :P

Huge event, I had a lot of fun (that Shinka is mine, glad you checked it out!), I did see your car, we hung around there for a few to see if we would run into the owner, but didn't see you until you were leaving. I was about to leave then too so I was sitting over in my 8. The guys that met up to go down together were all real nice, it was cool meeting you all. I got sunburned pretty bad, but thats not surprising with my parchment white skin.

High points on the event for me besides meeting everyone:

A lot of clean Supras there, really well kept, especially the black one with silver grill and no spoiler

A nice blue/white 427 Cobra, definitely drool worthy

Silver Lambo was pretty nice, but I didn't get to check it out for long because we went to check out the NSX row

Honestly one of the nicer looking cars there for me was the mazdaspeed body w/Greddy turbo RX8 we rolled down there with. I didn't get the dudes name, but he clearly put work into his car and it looked really nice. We got a chance to drool over it before heading down to College Park, but he should have popped his hood at the event so even more people could get a look.

I know several of the guys who met up brought cameras, unfortunately I didn't because I suck and don't own one. So um... post pictures!!!

^ haha all sunburnt except for that tattoo on your arm. im guessing that the guy with the greddy turbo and ms kit was danomite? ither that or the black one next to his i forget.

the black MS kit was mine, and the blue was dan's (imdanomite). it was nice meeting some of you guys btw.

i came but didnt drive my 8...i saw only like 7 8s parkd near the feild...was that alll that came??...and SCOBBBA STEBE u didnt go nxt time we shud rol up 2gether

Who was the last car on the dyno? It was a grey 8. I was laughing cause everyone in my club freaked out when it popped flames after letting off. I had to explain that it's ok. haha

i came but didnt drive my 8...i saw only like 7 8s parkd near the feild...was that alll that came??...and SCOBBBA STEBE u didnt go nxt time we shud rol up 2gether

i was there, i just didnt park near the other 8's
i parked near francisco and his tc... u shoulda brought ur 8, y didnt u??

i also came for a little bit, around 2pm. Me (BB rx8) and VmanX (winning blue rx8) came, Vman spoke to Nash I believe as we got there, cute kid by the way, haha.

And I guess that was Blackened chilling in his shinka as i was walking back to my car.

Nice cars guys.

Yo~ That TI gray was mine heh. I might be interested in the appearance package.
I tried to park next to the other 8's but no room for me :rant: a mustang took all the spaces I'd guess it was a special one LOL ... Anyways let me know about the appearance pkg .. and if there is another 8's meeting we can discuss about it.

Also, ADVMYTH 11:45 .. that was kinda way too early LOL ... we were there prob after 12 PM ... I arrived around 11:30 but I saw nobody so I went to Best Buy =:lol:

Hehe, yeah, I was absolutely cooking. My fiance was a bit lightheaded too so we decided to just sit in the car after wandering all around. It was definitely nice to meet all the 8 owners and see all the cool cars, I'm definitely down for another gtg sometime soon.
