I thought this thread was going to be about the musical.

Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain
And the wavin' wheat can sure smell sweet
When the wind comes right behind the rain.


EVERYBODY!

I tried to get something together a long time ago, but had a hard time getting people to come out. Then the main guys that showed up all the time either moved or sold thier cars. I was trying to get 7's and 8's together. I but I gave up cause only 5 people would show. I even designed a logo.

Hey Jump, it's a shame the OKC group kinda went by the wayside. I haven't bothered keeping up with you folks since movin last summer. I posted the OKC club pics with pride here with the Georgia group. Good to see you're still around. --Gimlet, formerly OKC-RX8 (changed the names for obvious reasons).

I'm still around as well, been working a lot.

Sat down and figured up my past MPG, worked out to 15.6 mpg or so =/

What's even worse is that includes about a tank's worth of highway driving. I averaged it out of three tanks. I blame my new exhaust.

I had the most recent flash done with some other minor work at my 15k miles checkup- ever since I'm getting a hesitation at 6k rpm. Kind of bothering me.

Mazda covering the engine?

Unfortuantely we have not been very organized recently. I've seen a couple 8's around town but every time I mention Rx8 club I just get strange looks :x

What color 8 do ya drive and where in OKC? I'm in NW OKC mostly or edmond in a (obviously)white mazdaspeed w/ some gunmetal rims. Feel free to flag me down if we ever cross!

Sounds good worm. Don't know the odds of "running" into each other though, I live in Midwest City. Would enjoy getting together sometime with as many 8 owners in the area as we could though. As for me, mine's all stock grey '04 GT. I haven't even gotten to tint the windows yet. Is anyone from the area going to the BBQ this weekend? I'll be leaving out sometime Friday afternoon, after my girl get's off work. Anywho, talk at ya'll later.
