Just wondering who in the Chicagoland area has replaced the OEM exhaust - I'm starting to look at that and wouldn't mind hearing some in person and getting opinions - talked with RSD about the Racing Beat, and also like the Mazdaspeed sound (at least in the low-res video clip)...any thoughts? Don't want something too loud, but wouldn't mind something with a bit more growl...

Ya just can't hide when you're driving an *8*. 
So I'm crusing around tonight, going nowhere in particular. I spot an taco place near Lincoln and Montrose, realize I haven't had dinner, and look for a parking spot. As I'm locking my car and walking toward the restaurant, some guy yells over to me, "Hey...is that a Shinka?"
Turns out to be sakura968...and we had never met each other before!
We talked a bit about RX-8Club.com...and RedSheDevil, and local meets. I haven't been to one yet, but will check the Meets thread and try to make the next one.
Nice meeting you, sakura. Oh, and...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DUDE!!

Hope to see you there!

It's not that bad. No one posted over the weekend which isn't unusual. We're still around here because this is the place to pick up the newbees.
