Saw a yellow 93-95 rx-7 last weekend driving I-10 east by the bud plant.. Had a R1 badge on it. Looked all stock. That's only the 2nd time i've seen a 3rd gen on the road.

Was behind a black 8 on 360/Green Oaks, license plate said Susi R.

My lame attempt. Only posted because she (I'm assuming it's a she) had a vanity plate.

Red w/ Exhaust downshifted and blew past me on westheimer right before the west alabama split in the galleria this morning. Torrential downpour aside, I tried to toss you the thumbs up but had to start getting right to get on 610S.

I was in the WB on RPF1's.

Where at in the Woodlands? That's where I currently live.

I'm pretty sure I've found every back road worth driving - got any favorite twisties you'd like to share?

Spotted and played around with a nice TI on 35S and 410W in SA last night. I hung up a crude rx8club.com sign that my son made while driving and he nodded so hopefully he is here or will show up!

Okay, took a road trip to Austin and spotted a clean VR with temp plates and some younger dudes in it and a Green on the access rd of 35N. On the way back I got mad dogged by a dude in a SS Auto with 16's (didn't like that I honked I guess).

On my way home from work today I honked at a nice dropped VR with a bald dude driving in the slow lane on 35N.

Spotted a Red 8 going North on 35 right after I-635 sunday night about 9:30PM. I heard when you put on neutral and pumped the gas while i was passing by. I couldnt do anything cause I had my niece sleeping on the back seat. =(
