They were still awesome! Sometimes timing is everything.

Tell Danica "Thank-you thank-you"

Thanks everyone for the refreshing bevies of a carbonated flavour.

Hey Ken,
Did Doug get the suspension down the way you wanted?

Forgot to ask you later on ...

When you were driving around with Footman it looked ok.

Fantastic meet today!

Super meet today. It was a great to see some of you again and meet some of the new guys with great looking 8's. We had a really great guy come from Brockville, I think. He probably has the youngest RX8 amongst us all and will represent us well in Eastern Ontario.

Although i didn't get my compression checked, I must say that I was particularly really impressed with 2 dudes; WCS and Scottish. Hats off to both these phenomenal guys for bring their equipment and giving so much of their time, effort and sweat (scrapes and bruises too!) to help so many of us members do test their compression test today.

If either WCS and Scottish ever need a favor from a member here, they should feel confident that 20 people, including me, will immediately offer assistance.

WCS, have a safe and success business trip.

Cheers for now Y'all.

He preloaded them perfectly i couldnt have been happier.

It definitely made up for the low compression on the front rotor

It was a great day.
Caught up with a lot of old friends and met some new ones.
WCS and Scottish, fantastic work on the whole compression duties.
Can't believe Sham is still alive.
Even Mr. Stark grace us with his presence.

Sorry I couldn't stick around for the cruise. Had to go take care of some business.

Can't wait for the next meet!

That was awesome

Thanks for the compression test and the spare trailing plug, wcs. I thought my weird idle issue was a compression issue but I guess it was that one fouled plug. I'll be keeping a close eye on it in the future.

The next major meet after the cruise should be at a track

edit: anyone else have sunburn?
