How was the movie?

9-K Rever · 12-09-2003, 07:47 AM

It was great! I want to see it again real bad!

Chirorx8 · 12-10-2003, 12:29 PM

Hey Elara was that you driving in the rain Weds. 1:15pm Hungary Springs/Broad? Would have waved but filling face with food.

Elara · 12-10-2003, 02:31 PM

That must have been the other green 8 that's been spotted in the area. one of my friends at work saw it the other day, and thought it was me till she saw the guy getting into it.

9-K Rever · 12-10-2003, 03:42 PM

Hahhahah, I still don't belive any of you exsist!! Every time I am on the road I am the only 8....

I would probably freak out with joy if I saw another 8. Then I would take you out for a beer at Capital Ale!

Maybe it's YOU that doesn't exist :p

I'v been to Shortpump Town Center 5 times in the past week, I go to the American Family in Shortpump on a regular basis, and I work in Innsbrook (so I'm constantly driving up and down Broadstreet), and I've never seen anyone other than Wingnut, and that was at a distance. I see a ton of 8s, just none of you guys!

:D

9-K Rever · 12-10-2003, 04:06 PM

AH HA!!! Thats why! I live in dowtown Richmond on Tobbaco Row and commute to Villa Park off off Brook road. I am hardely in that part of the West End. I am a downtown guy all they way. I only go out that far in the West End for the Friday Meets and to go to Best Buy... I avoid Broad St like the black plaugue..to many traffic lights

. I have seen like one silver 8 downtown by LA DIFF and thats been it..

Elara · 12-11-2003, 01:08 PM

Yeah, that would explain it- with all the talk of meeting in the West End I assumed you lived up here too.

9-K Rever · 12-11-2003, 04:01 PM

Nah, I did that for a year and decided I needed a change. Expspecialy with all the new development down there. Its realy nice.

Haha, I did the exact opposite. Spent the obligatory year in the Fan, hated it, and moved to the West End. Though, if I could have found an apartment in Tobacco Row that was big enough and still affordable, we would have moved down there. Most of those are GORGEOUS. Of course, the nice apartment complex we moved into has morphed into a very scary place over the past 5 years..oh well. Live and learn.

Chirorx8 · 12-11-2003, 07:54 PM

Hmmm do any of us exist?.... Weds driving home in the rain I was turning left on Cox and was passed by a silver RX-8. Never got a chance to see the tags.

Chirorx8 · 12-11-2003, 07:55 PM

Rever decided to forget the spoiler but the strakes are calling my name

9-K Rever · 12-12-2003, 06:39 AM

Ahh....giveing up on the spoiler?

Dont' do that...just wait till there is more options like me

Elara · 12-13-2003, 02:20 PM

I just spotted a red 8 on Midlothian Turnpike (about 2:30 this afternoon). Was it anyone here? We passed the guy, but I think he didn't see us until after we were two cars up, and then he turned.

9-K Rever · 12-13-2003, 07:50 PM

Okay Elara! Now I am a little peeved!! I finaly spend some serious time driveing in your part of town past Insbrook..even went to Short Pump Mall today and Bed Bath and Beyond..(needed a shower curtain) and I didn't see one 8!!! So you are saying you were in MIDLOTHIAN today! ARRRGHH I CAN'T WIN!

I am just kidding! But I swear I feel like the only 8 when I am on the road. I have friend who owns a Tuner shop in midlothein its called SPOOL..they work on a lot of MAZDA SPEED PROTOGE's and what not... realy good work. But, I caught him on the higway going to short pump and we harrased the hell out of this WRX that was trying to get me to race...It was fun!!

Chirorx8 · 12-13-2003, 08:42 PM

Jeepers man I am up to my arm pits in Rx-8's. Of course my office is right down the street from Cap mazda. Soon as I reach break in miles we will have to have a run down to Cville.

You weren't on Three Chopt passing Pemberton about 3:40 were you? I was on my way to the Short Pump Ukrops to go grocery shopping, and as I pulled up to the light on Pemberton a black 8 blew past on Three Chopt, heading towards Parham. And when I was loading my groceries into the car, the kid who was helping me asked if I had been parked in the shopping center earlier, because he'd seen one earlier that looked like mine(I assume he thought it was black) and he wanted to know what it was because he'd never seen one before then.

Nope Nope, I toldja I avoid main roads with traffic lights when I can.

I am alergic to traffic lights. I am always on the highway when unless I absolutely have too!

I see more FC RX-7's out on the road than 8's... Like I said, if I see any of ya on the road I will take ya out for a beer!

I was planning to do a charlottes ville run about a month ago. But, I cancled it. Something came up.

I made sure I got some 8 time into day. I don't know how the weather is going to be for tonite and tommorow.

Please oh please don't snow!

A run out to Charlottesville sounds like fun.....I'd like to be in. With all the sightings....isn't it time someone organise a Richmond rx-8 club (sure there's this one online) so all the "sighters" and "sightees" can gettogether?....by the way, speaking of sightings, there's a red rx hanging at the short pump mall (by Hecht's) and another black beauty in the Innsbrook area...anyone on this site?

I have been trying to get one together thats why I started this thread (AHEM)...

But, I would love for all of us to get together with our 8's and do some driveing.

I say the next weekend thats nice enough to do so we should.

I have a green and I work in Innsbrook(which you might mistake for black), and I've seen a titanium at Cap One just past Nuckols. Wingnut's car is also in Innsbrook (silver, I think?) Haven't seen the red at Short Pump Town Center, but I have seen a red at Pump and Broad.

And I think we need a Richmond 8 Club- even if all we do is get together, drive around, and drink beer (or whatever your beverage of choice is). I haven't been trying NOT to get together, but this time of year just sucks. I had to drive to Powhatan and back twice yesterday, and to DC today (and tomorrow). Next weekend I'll be driving to Powhatan, then to Fredericksburg, and back to Powhatan on Saturday. And it doesn't get any better till January.
