Well, it's that time of year again, when car club activities take a back seat to other summer fun, especially if you have a family.
We couldn't pull a cruise together this month, and not a lot of people can attend anything next month either, apparently. I won't have any free time until September at the soonest.
Only 4 months (give or take) until my 8 goes back in the garage for winter.

Damn, I would totally be down for a cruise anytime 
Off-Topic: I spotted my twin Velocity Red RX-8
He was on I-15 Southbound on Tuesday Morning at around 9:00. He had strakes and license plate cover was the chrome RX-8 one.
Anyone know who this is?
We drove side by side and right behind each other for a good 5-10 miles or so.
In a way it was kind of a spur of the moment cruise haha.
Pretty awesome to see all of the glances we got...EVEN during rush hour

There is also an overnight camping trip that some members are trying to pull together for sometime in August, as well.

where would the cruise be held? Anyone know if it would be a good idea to leave the rx parked in a garage over winter without a rebuild, just heard some rumors that if you do that, you will have to do a rebuild if its not started at all?

It's not a good idea to just let it sit and not be started up, it's not guaranteed to need a rebuild but it's better to just start it once and a while. If not your battery will die for one, drying up seals is another possible probem problem. Just needs to be started up and warmed up once a week and it will be fine.

Guess who is hear to answer your cries for a cruise? Thaz right ;)
August Cruise!!!! I also posted this on the rotary club web site, but I want to plan a cruise on either the 14th or the 21st of August. I really want to go to Trappers Loop in Morgan Canyon and give our friends up North a chance to be closer to our activities! I am thinking about meeting up in SLC area, driving out together as a group, meeting in Layton area for our peeps up North to join us, and then head through Morgan Canyon together. All 7's and 8's are welcome to join! There is a small place called the Oaks that will be on the other side of Trappers Loop that has great food an ice cream with a riverside location just perfect to chill and relax afterwards... Input is greatly appreciated!

@ No pistons... I wouldn't doubt that lol! I am originally from Weber/Davis County and I stand out like a sore thumb with my mods when I am home. I am really aiming toward the 21st, does that work for your guys??

Yeah i understand that, that time would work for me, i dont know about anyone else, i have two jobs which makes it kind of hard to plan stuff but i make it work. what mods do you have on your 8? I think the main reason for me sticking out is due to the converted single tip exhaust, not dueled out like most and boy is it loud and obnoxious, especially with the backfire. =)

I would be down for a cruise through Morgan canyon. Were you thinking Morgan canyon over old snowbasin and down Ogden canyon? Old snowbasin is currently closed, at least it was last Thursday.

This will be the fifth winter that I've garaged my car. It doesn't see the road from the end of November until about the first of March.
I warm it up every week to ten days during that time, get it up to operating temperature, even run it up and down my 100-foot-long driveway a few times just to limber-up the drivetrain and suspension a bit. Then she goes back on the carpet in the garage until the next warm-up session.
I also add Sta-bil to the gas and keep it topped-off so condensation doesn't form inside the gas tank.

I love my back fire, too lol!! Hey Roidz, That is the I believe the exact route I would like to follow =) It is official, this will take place on the 21st, so I will arrange a meeting location for both SLC and Layton and times for everyone to meet up. This will be a blast!!!
never been to a meet before should be dope.
