WNGD:

Generally 4-8 OZ of premix is the norm and id to be used per tankful of gasoline.....

Yes premixing is more beneficial in the early (04 and 05 RX-8's) and I have not been able to track down anyone in our area who sells idemitsu premix unless it is ordered in from ebay although i did hear of a shop in toronto that supposedly carries it but have yet to look into it...... so i use Amsoil semi-synthetic, purchased at Crappy Tire..... i believe its the Amsoil Sabre, will double check when i finish work and let you know...

Cheers,
Big Fella

I just set-up a Facebook Group "Central West Ontario RX-8 Club". The link is below if you you have trouble finding the group. The following is the group's description:

"A Facebook-based group primarily for (but not restricted to) members of the RX8 Club residing in or around the west end of Lake Ontario and the northeast coast of Lake Erie. This would roughly be the counties of Hamilton/Wentworth, Halton, Niagara, Haldimand/Norfork, Brantford, Waterloo, and Wellington."

Join Central West Ontario RX-8 Club here: https://www.facebook.com/groupinvite...L-mAFNN7MB2eDC

Spring Meet for West Central Ontario area: Sunday May 24 at noon. This is also posted in the West Central Ontario Facebook page.

Let's say goodbye to winter by meeting fellow RX8ers down at the Bayfront Park parking lot in Hamilton. There is Hutch's Harbour Front nearby where you can get fries, burgers, fish & chips and ice cream. Both the meet and Hutch's can be seen on the attached map.

Yep. I'll be there regardless of numbers posted (not fat for me). On the Facebook group, there were 2 or 3 others that said they would be there.

I'll be going to the May 31 meet (400 & Highway 7) the week after, and I've been promoting it and will be promoting it on the 24th as well. I'm hoping we can get meet interest out in the "far west" and maybe those out here can organize a cruise to the GTA meet from this area. Perhaps the Highway 6 & 401 car pool lot would be a good assembly point.

Looks like there won't be many able to make the meet on the Hamilton Bay Front Park on Sunday (May 24). Let's cancel and reschedule for sometime in June.
For those who do want to meet-up with other 8s and 7s, there will be a GTA group meet on May 31 (Highway 7 & 400 area). See you there.
