Does anyone know of a tool who drives a turbocharged blue RX8 in Omaha?

I would like to speak to him about:

1. Him driving like an asshat tailgating, doing burnouts behind me, and passing me on a double solid yellow line 2 lane road.

2. Him almost crashing after he blew past a stop sign at 100+ mph.

3. Him getting his **** pushed in by my car on spring pressure.

Lol I'm pretty sure that was me. Right by NFM wasn't it? I'm from lincoln and I'm still a noob to the site but I've had my 05 GT for 2 years. I guess I didn't think to check for nebraska owner's til now.

i think someone needs to grab the reigns and set a date and time. if we can't get enough 8's i got a brother with an STI and he meets with the subie dudes frequently...maybe we could join them? rather have an 8 meet tho.
