cortc 09-07-2004, 10:44 PM We should do one later in the month...
RotorGeek 09-08-2004, 07:55 AM Maybe we could go down to the autoX in homestead. On the 26th. An idea, But i would still like to have a little get together at Towershops. How those the 17th Sound?
cortc 09-08-2004, 09:05 AM Let me see if I will have my new wheels by then... If so I will send a message to some of the other guys and get them on board...
RotorGeek 09-08-2004, 09:33 AM That sounds like a plan
otrovago 09-08-2004, 10:03 AM I'm in for the 17th....
Genom 09-08-2004, 10:19 AM 17th should work for me too.
eclps0 09-08-2004, 09:13 PM if im not working im up for it.
Liquid Rhino 09-09-2004, 12:51 PM Work 9-6 here, (as many of us do) but I'd be down for it!
Any idea on a time?
RotorGeek 09-12-2004, 01:39 AM Ok guys. I plan on getting there by 7pm to get some spaces. Who's in. So far we have
Rotorgeek
Otrivago
Genom
Eclps0
Rhino
Cortc (maybe)
Pm me if you need directions
Let me know guys.
otrovago 09-13-2004, 05:50 PM I will get there around 8pm, I work down south in the falls area... :D, also can you send me directions... Thanks...
eclps0 09-13-2004, 06:32 PM you guys will see my new rims :D :D
i got OZ superlegras 18-9
245 40 18
tommy12g 09-13-2004, 09:46 PM I might go also, I work 15 min from there, by the way i had a blowout last tuesday right on 595 on my way to work and i pulled over right by University, but i guess it was for the best since i needed to get tires anyways. I ended up getting the Potenzas 245/40/18 S03 Pole Position they are awesome!! but $1,200 that was a bit steep but it included the balancing and alignment at the Dealership, so that is good. Love the tires and look really nice
RotorGeek 09-13-2004, 10:22 PM Let me see if I will have my new wheels by then... If so I will send a message to some of the other guys and get them on board...
Did you get your wheels?
cortc 09-13-2004, 10:29 PM Not yet, if I don't have them by then I will take a MS Miata or a 2005 RX8, we may get one or two this week...
I will also bring one of my titanium lug bolts so you guys can check it out...
otrovago 09-13-2004, 10:49 PM Get a hold of a white one if you can....
eclps0 09-14-2004, 09:58 AM I might go also, I work 15 min from there, by the way i had a blowout last tuesday right on 595 on my way to work and i pulled over right by University, but i guess it was for the best since i needed to get tires anyways.

hey im sorry i couldnt stay, when your tire blew but i had to get to an interview.
cortc 09-14-2004, 10:47 AM eclps0: I could have gotten you those same tires mounted and balanced for U$900.00...
tommy12g 09-14-2004, 11:14 AM damn thanks CORTC now im pissed about the extra $300!
RotorGeek 09-14-2004, 03:36 PM It's looking good for Friday. I will check the weather lator this week but I don't think it will be a problem. I will get there at around 6:00pm to save some spaces. Is there anybody here that can get there around that time? Maybe Eclps0. I am looking forward to meeting you guys.

AlexCisneros 09-14-2004, 03:41 PM After this one, how about a mini meet at the AutoX event? You don't need to run to come out so it's free... Plus you get to see how the events run and get a feel for AutoX'ing
Or we can do a mini meet and drive over to HMS this weekend and cheer the speedsource cars on (though this one costs money).
:cool:
AlexCisneros 09-14-2004, 03:43 PM by the way, we can take my famous (err... infamous ;) ) back road to HMS :D
otrovago 09-14-2004, 03:44 PM r u coming to this one alex?
Cortc, where you able to get a hold of the White RX-8 Yet?
RotorGeek 09-14-2004, 03:51 PM by the way, we can take my famous (err... infamous ;) ) back road to HMS :D
I am in for the 26th for sure. My buddy with a WRX is running. I will go to hang. I will bring my 5MP camara soo I hope all these guys will want to go. Are you talking about card sound road?
eclps0 09-14-2004, 05:56 PM It's looking good for Friday. I will check the weather lator this week but I don't think it will be a problem. I will get there at around 6:00pm to save some spaces.

Hy guys i can get there around 6:00 pm i only live 5 min away from towers so its no hassel. now where should we save spaces.
The front - By taco bell
the back- by the oldies
?
RotorGeek 09-14-2004, 06:21 PM I would say the SouthWest end near Taco Hell. Most people will fill up the the back near the vendors first. So it will give us time for the rest of the guys get there. I will get there between 6-6:30. Thanks man
Regards
Miguel

Liquid Rhino 09-16-2004, 10:04 PM I'm looking forward to meeting you guys... Man, I've been seeing a bunch of Black 8's (just last tuesday I saw 5 different ones in one day) there's also a Sunlight Silver w/ dark rims that i see around my hood every once in a while, anyone claim this one?
P.S. Not that it matters, but I was ultrashocked today in a huge traffic jam by US1 & SW 22nd to see a silver Mercedes MacLaren SLR.. it's huge! I know this IS Miami and all but I really thought they weren't even close to being released yet.
otrovago 09-17-2004, 08:46 AM I was ultrashocked today in a huge traffic jam by US1 & SW 22nd to see a silver Mercedes MacLaren SLR.. it's huge!
Oh yeah that's my way to work, I use the MacLaren as my everyday driver, and I take the RX8 out on the weekends... :D:D:D
AlexCisneros 09-17-2004, 08:53 AM Where did you see the sunlight silver with dark rims? and did it have an MS wing? :rolleyes:
tommy12g 09-17-2004, 09:54 AM Alex are you going tonight ? By the way let me verify 6.30 tonight in the back ?
otrovago 09-17-2004, 10:59 AM hey what is the plan for tonite? Are we having dinner or something...
RotorGeek 09-17-2004, 11:18 AM There is a Miami subs and a taco bell in the shopping center but we could allways go somewhere afterwards. We will play by ear depending on how many people we get.
tommy12g 09-17-2004, 01:55 PM I'll be there roughly at around 6.15
eclps0 09-17-2004, 03:07 PM ill be there i am washing my car now. so see ya guys soon. if you guys want to know where we are parking call my cell at 908-380-3284 ( nj number)
cortc 09-17-2004, 03:19 PM No wheels and no 2005 RX8s were delivered this week like planned, I will bring a Mazdaspeed MX5 Miata and let you guys drive it along with an example of a stock and titanium lug bolt...
