The latest weather update says only a 20% chance of precip. on the weekend, mosty just a cooling trend. Maybe that percentage will drop further in the next two days. Stay tuned...

Yeah Bose, you are so right! I think the pressure of all the prep of a BBQ might be holding us back, if it rains lets all go grab a drink or cup of coffee. We gotta start rollin in packs!! :) For all the shit our cars give us, we gotta stick together!

So I finally cleaned all the shit out of my sunroof track and loaded it up with white lithium and it will slide back great like 3 times real smooth, then start chattering again. :( maybe it still has some grit in the rollers or something. No one else seems to have this problem. Do any of you guys have over 50k on yours? I think the engine temp is finally starting to wear on my paint. It feels so ruff and I've tried everything short of rubbing compound cuz it scratches the paint all to hell.

Hey, maybe we could grab a drink or somethin this Friday...

Not sure if the wife will let me out this weekend for the meet, anniversary and all that jazz...BUT I will definitely try to go if we decide to meet up. PM me the time and location if we are. Thanks. Also, welcome Husain! I hope to see everyone at the meet. I've seen a lot of 8s in the Ogden area and I'd love to know if you guys are any of them.

Well happy anniversary!! We'll let you know when and hopefully both of you can pop your heads in.

Hey which one of you guys did I see on 3rd S and State this evening sitting at the light? I figure it was one of you in that sweet black 8 cuz he was cool-even smiled and he was with his girl...

I need to look at your sunroof, Enigmah. Maybe I can figure it out.

I can look at your paint, too. You have to use a polishing compound chaser with rubbing compound to take out scratches.

hey
 

I volenteer for the Great dane Rescue association. . . BTW i have 80 K on my car and sun roof works fine other than makes a vibration noise when blaring the tunes

I would be up for a meet, even if it rains :)

Me too. I am pretty sure the weather people don't have a clue. If you had looked at the forecast, we have been getting rain for two days strait, suppose to be raining right now.:lol:

I would totally be down for a meet this weekend. I dont have to work for once. :) Name the time and place and I'm there.

Thanks, good to know. I was actually wondering about the mileage cuz of the long term affects of the high running temp of the engine on the plastic parts and paint. Thanks, JT when we meet next you should look at it. I tried a de-oxidizing/scratch remover etc. compound on the paint, and liquid clay bar and it is still so rough to the touch. I don't think the recall has been done on my sunroof, but I don't think it needs to, I think it's totally different rattling than that. But you can all check out my troubled ride and offer an opinion. :)

So, this weekend...Saturday eve? Bose maybe we should get a pavilion at liberty - it'll be at least 4 of us. Invite the WRXers too. I say 6pm and if it rains we go to hooters or Sugarhouse BBQ is right there mmmmm ribs!

ya. . .
 

Let me know ill be there. . .

Shit fellas, I can't tonight it's my lady's birthday, We're going to Miller Motorsports Park for the prototype and GT races, I'm pretty sure the Speedsource RX8 is going to be there but there will be rotory power on the track either way.

Can anyone meet tomorrow? Go somewhere we can watch a little football, grab a bite then cruise. Or something of that nature, not sure if anyone is down with sports or not.

yeah, I ended up making plans to go climbing and to some concerts tonight, have fun at the race though! I'm cool with a sports bar or somethin but have plans at 6pm tomorrow so for me it'd have to be afternoon sometime.

And nice avatar maytee!

I can't do anything this weekend or next. My first opportunity is Oct. 3, 4, 5.

maybe we should plan for one of those days so everyone knows about it and can make it a priority nice and early!

I think an early meet on the 4th would be perfect, around 12 or 1. We should grab a bite somewhere and watch the Utes game, or something to that effect.

Do you guys mind if an ex RX-8 owner joins you when you decide to have the meet?

You're always welcome, Klone. Especially if you bring the Lotus! :)

Absolutely, it is pretty much my daily driver, can't get enough of it. Although, I do find myself missing the 8. I will check back and see if a time and place are decided.

No doubt about it man, our group is too small to be so selective.:lol:

Anyone from Utah loading up and heading down to Sevenstock in Irvine, CA this weekend?

10 hours, 12 minutes... 687 miles or 34 gallons of gas in your RX-8. Anyone coming?

I wish I could, but my wife isn't into the car scene at all, and Saturday is her BIRTHDAY. The gods are against me! :banghead:

Klone, OF COURSE you're welcome with a garage like that! Bring some friends!:lol:

Unfortunately, I won't be able to come that weekend unless it's friday. I promised a friend we'd go out to the races at the Toole track. I think it's the national GP; I'll be in the pit or on the track:fingersx:

FINALLY!!! I have been trying to get someone from UT to go out for months!! I'm leavin early afternoon on Friday and stoppin for a bit in Vegas before cruzin through the wee hours of the mornin to roll up round 4 or 5am which is when cars start lining up!! That way I don't have to pay for a hotel. If you still need a room, talk to Dominion on the Vegas SS11 sticky. He's got a sweet employee deal on some rooms down the road (if he has any left). And Flip is looking for someone to cruise down with Friday evening from Vegas. I CAN'T WAIT!!:jump:
PM me if you wanna try to meet up and we'll talk details.

Man Tully, you just can't catch a break lately! :(

It's OK, En, if it wasn't for my wife, I wouldn't even have my 8. Great lady. :)

I agree with bose, we should meet on the 4th. I want to go to the game but I don't know if I can get the tickets yet but if I don't we could just chill at my house and watch the game and have some beers :) unless someone has HD and a big tv :)
