I'm out next week, but anytime after that..

9-K Rever · 11-19-2003, 08:07 PM

Good stuff! We have a car meet at Short Pump Mall every friday, we can check the weather for the weekend and hit the back roads! I will post if there is a change. All Richmond RX8s are welcome!

Hanzo · 11-20-2003, 05:44 AM

Yes, feel free to come by to the short pump meet, everyone is welcome. BTW now that the weather is cold we are going to start meeting in the food court.

Chirorx8 · 11-20-2003, 07:05 AM

Hmmm, which elevator is big enough to drive the RX8 into the food court

Elara · 11-20-2003, 07:13 AM

Oh, come on- it'll just drive right up that escalator.

:p

9-K Rever · 11-20-2003, 08:34 AM

Well, we managed to get a EVO 8 and a STI up there before..so I think we can manage the 8s... Oh, weather looks good for the weekend so looks like we will be able to hit the twisties!

Chirorx8 · 11-21-2003, 05:30 AM

When, Where?
I do not want to go around the food court asking "what car do you drive."

9-K Rever · 11-21-2003, 07:41 AM

Yeah, I was thinking about that....send me a PM with your cell number and I will give you the contact info. This weekends weather should be amazing so to the twisties we must go!

9-K Rever · 11-21-2003, 09:01 AM

Actualy the weather is going to be good today, so we will all meet at the Starbucks in the Short Pump Mall..park behind Dicks Sporting goods..we will not be hard to miss.

Chirorx8 · 11-21-2003, 07:14 PM

Sorry I did not get out of the clic till late.
I know you will not be meeting next Friday (Black Friday...shopping mall heck). What time does everyone get there?

9-K Rever · 11-23-2003, 06:49 PM

Once the again I was the only 8 at the meet! We need to get some more 8's there.!! We had a great showing this week! We had several WRXs and 2 EVO's even a S2000...We had people come down from as far as DC..so hopefully we can get another strong showing at the next meet!

Chirorx8 · 11-27-2003, 07:12 AM

Ok, count me in for the next one!
Let me know time & place
Lets see
30K for car....35 per neck snap...... 857 pops and shes paid for!

9-K Rever · 11-27-2003, 09:21 PM

I will post the next meet, I am hopeing for good weather and a strong RX-8 showing. I am tired of being the only one out there defending the 8 against all the crappy rumors going out there..I hear a new one every meet and I end up takeing some WRX owner or non beliver out for a ride they won't forget...

Elara · 11-28-2003, 09:09 AM

Hmm..sounds like some people need to be beaten about the face and shoulders. Are you guys not having one tonight? I'm going to be at Short Pump this afternoon, but I could come back tonight if needed.

9-k Rever, you weren't on 95 yesterday, were you? I got passed (on the SHOULDER) by someone in a black 8, and they ignored me, even though they were stopped next to me for almost 30 seconds. I assume it was not you, as the license plate was O2BNIT and they guy driving it just LOOKED like an a-hole. If I see this guy on here, I may just ban him on principle for being a moronic jackass.

9-K Rever · 11-28-2003, 09:31 AM

Nope not me, 9-K Rever is my real plate and I am not a A-HOLE. I when I see another 8 I honk and waive. I am always looking for other 8's. I thought I was the only black one in Richmond for a good minute..I am usualy the only 8 on the road when I get out. But I do most of my driveing at night and if I am pushing the 8 its on the back roads. But the group is all meeting at a friends house tonite cuz we are scared of the Mall during the holiday season. Send me a PM and I will give you directions. Lots of cool cars there. But, once again..if you don't come..I will be the only 8....But there will be lots of beer. I have some awsome RX8 video's I will let you borrow. Mostly in Japanese though ( I speak Japanese I used to live there for several years)

Elara · 11-28-2003, 03:43 PM

I can't make it tonight, but let me know next time. I have a house full of family that seems to have taken roots.

9-K Rever · 11-28-2003, 09:28 PM

I bailed today too...but if the wether is good on sunday wanna see how many 8's we can get for a nice twisty drive?

Chirorx8 · 11-29-2003, 08:16 PM

My poor little 8 has been parked in the garage all weekend.
Monday its off to the twisties and to work.

Chirorx8 · 11-29-2003, 08:18 PM

Need help.

Should I get:
1. spoiler
2. strakes
3. Borla
or a combo of the above
Currently Vel. Red Manual

9-K Rever · 11-29-2003, 11:25 PM

Ahh..good question...I would say get a RE-Amemiya spoiler..or the Mazda speed one..but if you ask me every one is going to have that. Personaly thats what I am going to do also I am going to get steel braided break lines and the Mazda Speed exhaust and mabey the fly wheel..but the fly wheel will make it hard for an every day driver. But, a cold air intake would be cool, better than your every day K and N filter but, I don't want anything to change the sound of my 8 by too much..besides the spoiler I want people to look at it and think its a stock 8.. Oh, and my suspension is going...but that will be last on the list..

9-K Rever · 11-30-2003, 05:07 PM
