Oh and Will - where on the back window did you stick the tag? I have a white whip too but was thinking about putting on two tags (for more horse power). One in each flip out window? Too extreme? I've always been keen on club stickers.
Yo sup man, well maybe ill set up a lil club meet just for us NYRA guys in Flushing Meadows park.

Aug 17 @ 11:30pm.
Passed and kinda funned around with a VR 8 on LIE headed midtown tunnel. It was a pretty boring encounter, didn't see you wave back.

Aug 20 @ 7:00pm.
A Grey 8 tailed me down Little Neck Parkway. I flashed my hazards - I don't think you could've cared less to wave. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Aug 20 @ 8:00pm.
I was pulling out of Dae Won restaurant on Northern Blvd and Cross Island. You crossed right in front of me with your Silver 8. You didn't even flinch for your high beams.

In my experience I think most 8 drivers in Queens have the shift **** up their *** and not in their hands. Am I right? Are 8 drivers a bit snotty? NJ drivers seem a bit more open to prop'in one another...

Maybe I'm bitter because no one returns my waves!

i was surprised that I saw 3 8's within 15 mins. it was my first time!

i was on old country road today at about 6pm. i drive a TG with the loud greddy exhust and midpipe.

the first 8 i saw was red and had no spoiler.

and the third 8 i saw was black with a mazdaspeed wing and we both entered roosevelt field mall.

Saw a red RX-8 yesterday on Houston Street around 230pm. Was driving eastbound towards the FDR drive from the westside of Manhattan. It was an older gentlemen driving. I got stuck in traffic and you took off.

Busy, for the past few months....almost every weekend I would have stuff to do! But I was able to make it to the Bear Mountain meet, which was pretty cool. You should've made it, but knew that you guys were gonna be tired from the HIN.

Imma see if I can make it to the 17th, since it's literally 10 blocks from my house :P: But not sure, since its my best friend's wedding and she would KILL me if I don't go, lol.

In Newport there has been a uprise in 8 population. I see a yellow 8 and a red 8 (black rims) parked on the street across from Duane Reade. There is black on in my garage parking lot and I see a green 8 (chrome rims) around the neighborhood Target and WB parked outside the South City Grill occasionally. As I own a white 8 all we are missing is a silver and galaxy grey. We should take a shot together in the neighborhood!
