Why not make up little slips of paper (or those fairly cheap perforated printer business cards) with the web address and basics about the RX-8 forum on them and carry them around in the glove box? Then anytime you're out and about and see one in a parking lot, etc. it would be easy enough to just tuck one under a wiper blade. Considering the HUGE amount of knowledge and lessons learned on this board, it sure would go a long way toward making an even more tightly knit owners community. Who knows - it might even get more dealer involvement if the car turned out to be a demo being driven around by a manager, etc. if it gets them in here and reading our posts...

Just a thought...personally I plan on doing it provided the Admins/Mods have no objection...

Here is something the Admin over at clubWRX had done, thought I'd post it up to help you get your creative juices flowing :)

Yep - you're dead on the money Ike. That's exactly the type of thing I had in mind! :D

Something like this??
I have a Photoshop with the originals in case someone is interested on playing a bit more with it. Just PM me.

Everything in DFW is livin large!!!

BTW, leaving the b/card or note on another car works great. I have a stack of business cards with Revolution logo and web address on them that I leave on every rotary vehicle I see. On the back I usually write rx7club.com or rx8club.com and/or something about the midwest forum.

I almost always hear from the person, and never have I had a negative response.

I'd make the "advise" into "advice" for those of us in the lower 48 (sorry to our Canadian friends - what's that all aboot? :D), but otherwise that looks really good! Seems like an idea that may be catching on...

Opss...I guess I can't be included in the 'knowledgeable' people's group!!

You're correct that "advice" is the proper spelling in the sentence previously stated but I don't understand the Canadian comment, we would spell it "advice" in that situation as well.

this is a great idea

omg

Actually I think something a little LARGER would work, like a semi..

Man, that's the size to print 1/8th of a letter format and make it come up pretty crisp in quality!

bump

Rather than posting an image of the file, can you post the actual file so we can download and store on our computers? I think the forum server is set up to let you do that.

ah awesome, i obviously missed this post in the past.

i fiddle with some ideas as well, see what i can crank out.

-b

anyone come up with a really nice one? pimp's is good

Hey Mental Pimp - that's a sharp looking card / invitation / flyer you've got there. Someone above asked about creating a file that we can download to our computers to save and print up as needed. Has that ever happened and if not would you be willing to take a stab at it for those of us who are rather challenged in such things? I'd print the one you posted but, as you mentioned, there's a typo or two. I'd love to print up a few cool little club cards and start leaving them around town! :)

Anyone get anymore cards made up?

Exactly. Advise is a verb.. advice is a noun and in this context, correct. Lots of folks also confuse practise (v) with practice (n). The only way I can remember is 'ice'= noun. Pretty lame but it works for me. ;) The cards are a great idea! Thanks. [Don't think I'd better get into the bikini discussion as I'm a newbie and older than dirt-just a quiet vote: "YES!"]

I like Guy's idea. Get the ladies of RX8 to pose in bikinis. That will increase forum circulation :) :) :)

can someone get the pics for this thread to show again?

here's my attempt

That's awesome... 2 1/2 years and no one ever fixed the spelling.
