Was at Ingram Park Mazda yesterday getting some schedule maintenance done on my car and saw a VR RX8 come in on the back of a tow truck. Looked like it had the mazda speed appearance package and some aftermarket chrome rims. Hopefully it wasn't anything to serious.

Haha. I do the same thing to people. It's one thing to park out in the empty section of parking lot but that doesnt mean you get to take up multiple spots

This is the Gulf Forum, not the MW Forum. That would have been me (ZUZUZM 8).

Since it is lamborghini spotting time, here is the one I saw in Austin the other day. I waited forever for the guy to start the car, but he just sat in it for like 5 minutes. GAY

at least you got a free picture, when I was in Vegas we went to a Ferrari "museum", which was nothing more than a dealership, it cost 10 bucks to go check it out, and they wouldn't let us take pictures, the only reason I went in was to see an Enzo they were supposed to have, and it was sold/gone.

Spotted some rotors in the wild...


I was in my company's break room the other day and I notice this blender sitting on the counter.




Doesn't seem like anything special till I saw it from the top...



A ha! Behold the rotor in the wild!


But yet, that was not the end of my spottings. While killing time in Sears the other day, I managed to capture this elusive creature... the twin rotor...




Happy hunting.

I was behind a BB with what seemed like a Racing Beat catback and clear corners on University Parks at 625ish. You seemed to have some sort of blinking light in your clear corner? What is the deal with that? It was an erratic kind of blink.

My guess is a loose bulb or loose LED. The LEDs will flicker when they start to go.
