I was thinking of suggesting something for this weekend too. I put my KW Coilovers on this weekend, so I have to go get an alignment Saturday morning. I can brobably do something later.

I also want to get a J-Ville e-mail list going. I don't check this section very often and usually miss the get togethers.

I have plans from 6:30-10pm on Saturday. I can do something Sat afternoon or Sunday but I'm up for seeing some new cars, and new owners too :ylsuper:

I will be out of town this July 4th weekend wish I can make it we all should have some kind of section for RX8's in Jacksonville and surrounding areas or when people come into town so we can have a meet. It would be nice to have a big turn out for a meet maybe even all rotary cars? Even you cmr333:lol2: Next weekend I can do something lets see if we can get something together and lock down a parking lot 10+ strong:djcelebra

What do you guys say?:score:

I could meet Sat night, but i dont plan on being at the sonic on beach. I am down for being on a jax rx8 meet email list. (Trav.G@comcast.net)

Sat the 12th there is a "cruz-in" on the corner of SR13 (San Jose) and Racetrack Road. It is usually hot rods and muscle cars but i would love to show up with some 8's. it is very organized, there's a dj, and many places to eat. It is in the food lion shopping center from about 5-8pm every 2nd saturday of the month. I will be there for sure.

OK, here is my recommendation. Let's meet about 11:00 Sunday Morning at River City Market Place. I-95 & Duval Rd. (Airport Exit)

There are a few places for lunch, but I will probably go to Five Guys. We can shoot the breeze for a while then take a little drive up 17 to Amelia Island and back around Hecksher Dr. There are plenty of places to stop for photos and also places to stop for cold beverages.

I will see anyone there that can make it.

I will also get an e-mail list started so we can rely less on the boards for info.

Peace,
Doyle

I'm new to this forum. I drive an SRT-4, but want to upgrade to an 8 soon. Mind if I join in? I'd like to hear from Jax 8 owners.

07-03-2008, 09:31 PM
vanvideo, I wouldnt mind if you came out. I think some people who had an 8, and then now drive something else have shown up in the past.

I'm up for meeting at 11am at River City Market Place, lunch, and a drive. Have not been there before so hope its not too hard to find. My email is lokel_ani@yahoo.com

07-04-2008, 06:09 AM
sounds like a plan to me. i'll be there Doyle.

if anyone still wants to meet up at sonic too on saturday night let me know. i can PM my phone number if you want it.

Cool. It is easy to find. Go north on 95. When you get close to the airport exit, you will see the the Market Place on the right. Get of on the 1st exit (Duval road east). When you turn right into the market place, Five Guys is the first or second left turn. It is immediately left of Wal Mart. You can't miss it. Sounds like it should be a good turn out.

Please PM or E-mail anyone that you think may want to join us. (Yes, even if they aren't 8s)

See you all there

You should check out cflrx8.com There are a bunch of people closer to Orlando, and they had a bbq last weekend.

I posted on their website and invited them as well, not sure if any of them plan to drive out on such short notice though. You can check to see if any of them do come out.
