So as I prepare for my move out west I magically come in line with another maintenance period for the 8. Out here in Cleveland we have a local oil change place that is stupid enough to offer me free refills. Do you guys have any places out there with similar setups as I really do like this free top off every two weeks?

Hey, I saw a white 8 on 119 today so I went into the parking lot by Lowes, and it was in the Panda Exspress right there. Is that someone on here? Also saw another/ same car on main street headed North.

Ive seen a red and a graphite series 1 over at the Level 3 campus in Interlocken a couple of times. Always seem to be very polite.

Possibly, cant remember off hand. However im willing to guess that if you were at The Panda off 119 by Lowes it was you lol. Do you live in Boulder or in Longmont area?

There was a white RX8 the previous Monday just screaming down the Diagonal heading into Boulder at 9am, doing everything he could to get through traffic.

That would have been Aug 8th.

I was leaving work after an hour at IBM, and just wasn't feeling good, and watched as this white rx8 came flying down the temporary right lane to get around traffic just as I was about the merge onto the Diagonal.

RX8 got off at the Foothills Parkway/Diagonal split heading into North Boulder on Iris.

So, anyone here willing to admit to being speedy gonzales?

BC.

I just got back to vegas from my colorado trip, saw a few rx8s in colorado but not sure if its anyone here. Saw one I think it was silver but not sure, first 3 letters of the license plate were "TEZ" that was on the 225 in horrible traffic. Saw a green one on the 16th or 17th going down colfax as well.

I was over in aurora near buckley a lot on my trip, surprised I didn't see you sarriaga. I was mostly near tower & mississippi.

Figure I should make my introduction here.

I will be purchasing a 2006 Brilliant Black Shinka next weekend. Really excited to own the car. It is a bit overwhelming trying to figure out where I want to go with the car. My "plan" is to try to leave it alone for a year or so, then start modding it. But we will see if I have that amount of self control.

Anyways, how many strong are we in Colorado? Any meets planned? I'd love to organize something, especially if there are more members in CO than my last car club.

We seem to be growing as we go along which is great, maybe instead of being lone wolfs, we can be a pack lmao. Idk, recent numbers show somewhere around 5-8 off the top of my head, might be a high guess though. I dont feel like counting the posts to see lol.

I might be moving back to Colorado at some point, it just sucks because my car felt gutless out there. I don't know if it is because I did not reset the computer or what, but I figured 7 days out there was enough for it to learn it was in higher altitude without a reset.

It's going. Not on 8club much. Pop in once and a while searching for good deals on parts. I need a few things for the other 8 still.

Sheesh...you guys are everywhere. Ran into two red Series 1, one in Monument and one in Springs down near Peterson, and a black Series 2 in Springs at Briargate the other night. I can't believe you guys don't get together more.

I told you guys...

We're lone wolves, scouting our territory.
When we spot another RX-8 in our territory, we start doing massive burnouts, donuts, and power slides to scare them out of our territory.

Eventually, we chase them up or down the nearest canyon until they vanish off in the distance, which usually takes a good long time, because both cars are equally great in the twisties.

So, its better that we stay alone, otherwise things can get fun, oops, I mean hairy.

BC.
