Chicago Meet...does anyone do this??
I searched to see if any 8s are meeting up and it doesnt seem to be.
Are there any meets in the Chicago area? I went to a meet last Saturday with the JGTCA and it was great, but I was the only 8 that showed. Just curious if I'm missing meets around the city..... |
There is the Rotory Car Club of Chicago (RC3) which is in a state of flux at the moment. The active members drive 3rd Gen RX7's. I go to many of the meets. A discussion of the future of the club is ongoing at:
http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.ph...6&page=2&pp=15 If you are looking for the RX8 exclucively, try RX8Groups at: www.rx8groups.com They held their first meet at "the Autobarn" Mazda dealership in Countryside about a month and a half ago. They are setting up a beach meet in conjuction with the Mazda 6 club. |

We've also hooked up with the RX7 club guys at Woodfield a few times... but I haven't heard about get togethers with them recently. |
Thanks to RedSheDevil & alneilsen for coming out to play at least once each. So far our only semi-regular RX-8 member is joyriderx-8, but mattrx-8 has been out at least twice as well.
As I mentioned, if you guys want to get together or a regular basis and like seeing all kinds of Japanese GT cars (RWD/AWD coupes with some sport sedans like the RX-8, STi, and EVO.... and occasionally some VIPs too like the RWD/AWD Japanese luxos...) come on out :) I recommend bringing a couple bucks if we go to CIR (chicagoindoorracing.com--it's $25 a race on Saturdays) though heheh. lateRZ |

I noticed you guys are going to the RAM on Sunday. Maybe I'll see you there. I might be out there with my friends from Euroteknik. Sorry I haven't made it to any more of your meets. Saturdays are bad for me and weekends are for racing (autocross). Plus the missus gives me grief because I do too much car stuff. |

We are hot and new, They are old and broken. :D To paraphrase Eddy Murphy |

I'll be in town Aug 11-14, staying in Wooddale. Anything going on?

Dazy, I hung out with the JGTCA guys 2 weekends ago and they were really cool. No h8rs, no rice, just people who like cars. After reading about this stuff here I'm a bit skeptical about other meets. I'm a n00b and just looking for some info and a spirited cruise (got both at JGTCA). Sadly, I've got a wedding to go to on the 13th, or I'd meet you there!!!
