On Sunday?

You can count me in.

Give me a buzz, and we'll set up the where and when.

Oh, they repaved the stretch of 36 between Louisville and Broomfield, so it won't be a crater filled warzone that you have to drive through again.

I'm thinking that you should be introduced to Lookout Mountain, and Squaw Pass this time around. You WILL like those two roads.

Sorry about the miss communication today. I didn't know we were going to get something going for Sunday. Well lets see what we can work out in advance for Saturday next week, or Sunday again, Whatever's Clever.

Ran into an 8 on my way out of town on Sat on I25N...I believe the plate was "EMS PLT". Unless you normally are an autoxer you should probably invest in a rear wheel alignment. It looked like your rear camber was way off from where it should be.

Ya, we need to get a headcount of how many available RX8 drivers are in the area so for the counts at like 4 or 5. Please correct me if im wrong. I saw a red series II at BurgerKing today in Gunbarrell, never seen it before though. Why don't we set up something for next weekend to go for a little ride and meet up at BW3's somewhere and grab some wings?

Maybe im the only one that is very envious of that video above lol.

This cruise was fun as we had to go up a 4 story parking garage to get the shot.

Hey 8ya,
Im assuming your going to Penkus, which one though (Woodman or Motor City). Had my engine tested at Woodman last month and failed compression but they wont touch it until I get a new cat and get rid of the CEL im getting.

I went to motor city and diane was my service rep. You must have a mid pipe. Better go to U pull or dons sports car salvage in pueblo and pay for a used cat and and get a free engine. Good luck! When you get her runnin hit me up!

Hey I was wondering if there are any other 8 owners in the Canon City area. I saw a black or black cherry RX-8 on highway 50 and turning on 9th Street yesterday. It had the plate in the window and it sounded like an aftermarket exhaust. I've seen many other 8's around town and I'm surprised that no one is on the forums. But maybe I can't find anyone lol

Oh it was a great event that the IndyRX8 guys put on. Unfortunately lack of interest and the amount of work that they put into it has made it so they didn't host it this year. In 2009 though we had a caravan heading to the event that was 30 deep heading from Dayton to Indianapolis. Unfortunately for me I guess, you guys seem a little more loose knit then we are up here in Cleveland. There for a while we were meeting monthly with 10 - 15 RX8s regularly attending. We would do things from just going out to dinner for some fun, to ripping apart a part out car, to doing parts installs for others.

8ya,
Yeah it had a midpipe on it when I bought it, put a Mangnaflow cat on it but the CEL came back. Saving up to get a DaveSport cat because everyone says that one doesn't through a code or maybe even the cat midpide from the RX7 store.

Cant wait to get the engine swapped so I can play again.

You might try the spark plug fouler mod for the o2 sensor it might hide your CEL long enuf to get your new engine approved. It took my boys away for like 300mi. Slvrmzdrx8..... your right we need to get something going before summer time is gone....

I'd let ya borrow my OEM CAT Ender if I was out there but I'm still having house hunting problems. Heck...I know a bunch of people out here that would be willing to loan you one just so you could take it in...even some with bad ones that would be willing to let you borrow it for the chance of getting a new one. Where's the support of the club out in Colorado? Anyways...8ya is right...a fowler might just do enough for you to get rid of the CEL long enough for them to get you a new engine.
