Just be sure to schedule and pay in advance for Hockenheimring (that's what they told me when I went)... they screwed me on that one. So I never raced on it. If you all get together, you can schedule it to where you guys race each other for set laps. Who has the quicker 8 or better driver? OOooooahh! Challenge lol. Ya'll stay safe, going to miss Germany and the tracks I've missed lol. Goodbye legendary tracks hello autocross.

 

I went in mid-summer last year without any reservations or anything and didn't have a problem getting on the track. It was a little crowded but I stil had a great time.

 

Lets set a day to meet!!!

 

we're arranging to go there again by the end of aug or early september.

 

ok i might go earlier , cant wait for the april 1 winter tires season end

 

Hey Rx 8speciale, when are you posting new pics. I want to see these wheels and lip kit.

 

ok , here they are, love them

 

im also getting my side skirts shipped next week

 

Looks great, I want your rims lol. Red anodized lugs nuts would look even sicker. I would have taken those Motegi's if I knew you were still.

 

Hows the clearance with 9.5, debating between 9"s or 9.5"s

 

they are flush ,i got no rubbing lower 1.4 front 1.2 rear , if u wanna go more low u will have to roll the fender and trim the back tap on the inside, front maybe also difficult since mine is close to touching the inner wall .18x 9.5 is excellent but dont go lower than +30 offset or higher than +42

 

Hi,

I'm currently stationed in Belgium and there are no 8s in here, maybe about 4, but the thing is that I have not seen any meets of any car around here plus they speak french and they are very rude (no offense to any belgian here). So if you guys planned any meets in the Germany area or go to Nurburgring which I'm going too this this summer, can you guys let me know?, it would be cool to meet more 8 owners and have a good time racing at the track or doing whatever you guys do. I used to go at the meets in PR which we call "La Fiebre" and it used to get crazy but that was all street racing/not safe. Anyway just wanted to let you guys know. Thanks.

 

i let u know when i be going to nurburgring, by the way im from PR ..

 

Driving down to the Trier area the third week of April, and am planning on getting out on the Ring the weekend before/evenings the week of. It'll be my first time there, and my first time on any track. I'll have a passenger with me that has done a few laps there, but was wondering if you folks could provide any insight to help me capitalize on my time there . Thanks in advance!

Any 8 events going on i april? Im in graf and i am interested in car shows or meets.

 

What part of PR you from? I'm from Hatillo, you stationed in Germany?

 

hey , im from Camuy ,right beside the beach Penon Brusi, small world we live in. im station in graf germany

 

So have you been in Nurburgring before?

 

si every year i go 5 to 6 times on summer time , done 40 laps so far.

 

Hey ya'll. Just checkin in to see what's up. Hope all is well!

April is pretty much out for me. Between spring break and a TDY I won't be around for much of it at all!

If ya'll do something in May, lemme know!

 

meh, just found out I'll be leaving Belgium in November. Headed down the road to Spangdahlem. No more RX-8 though, its sold as soon as I pick up the beater I bought.

 

Given the distance you'll be from spa and the 'ring you'll have another rx8 in the driveway though

 

you know thats always cool man. you camp at my house and go make suicide attempts at the tracks, and I will camp out of my tent that I will pack up on the back of the bike and go tour eastern europe

 

Weather is getting nicer. Gotta do some work on my car but I'll probably be trying to head to the ring at the end of this month after I get back from Italy. Excited to get some footy of the ring with my gopro.

 

Damn that sucks, I'm leaving Spang in December. You're definitely gonna miss the 8, the roads around here are AMAZING!
