Akron/Cleveland 8 Owners.
 
Seems like alot of the Columbus guys get together, if nothing else, on these forums. I KNOW there are 8 owners in Cleveland and Akron because I have seen 'em. So, where are you guys on the forums? I live in Wadsworth, which is Akronish. I'm wanting to do some things with the 8 this summer and want to find other owners near-by.

It's your lucky day! I'm in Cleveland! If you want to know what mine is/looks like, check my sig! (Trust me, you'll agree...its your lucky day! ;) )

Wurmfist 04-18-2005 08:07 PM

I see a black RX-8 running on I-90 sometimes around the Chester street exit. I never take my 8 to Cleveland, I'm always there in the work mini-van. Although I always envy those that are in there 8's when I'm not. I went to your website. You got quite the nice setup. Mine's mostly stock. Although I did add some Kenwood subs and a Kenwood Excelon amp. It's nothing really heavy, but it adds a little kick to it. I also got the Racing Beat exhaust and the a/c and oil coller covers. I'm happiest the most about the RB exhaust. It was just what I was looking for.

Well...if you hear a black 8, more than you see it...or you see some wicked underbody ground effects....that's me! :D Trust me...you'll hear me! (On the positive side, I've noticed no one will tailgate me...I'd like to credit my exhaust! :D ) Oh...and especially around dead-man's curve, I love to drop the gears and rev the engine up under all the bridges....it sounds fantastic...brings a smile to the face every time!

I'm a new 8 owner in Cleveland, but I'm actually moving to Cinci in June. Any good shows up there before then?

conedodger 05-04-2005 07:46 PM

I'm a little late posting but I live in Green, south of Akron.

Wurmfist 05-05-2005 06:12 AM

Yeah I know Green. Not to far from me. I'm in Wadsworth. I keep seeing a red 8 driving around Wadsworth that isn't mine either Doylestown too. I suspect it's the same car.

That sounds good to me. I won't really be available until after late June though. Brilliant black is awsome!

Sweet! I live near Bidingers Ice Cream. If you are ever going down college street and it's a weekend you might see it in the driveway, if I'm not off driving around in it. Sadly I don't get to drive it much during the week because of my job. We could have a minature ralley in Wadsworth now lol. I see a red 8 going around town too. Is it possible to have 3 8's in one town?? ...boggle...

jangle 05-16-2005 08:49 AM

wurmfist, i'll try and stop by sometime if i see your car there. i live on farr ave between summit and hartman.

conedodger, be sure to remind me when you're available. maybe we can all get together sometime. brilliant black is awesome! i'm now pissed though...just spent 4 hours on my 8 yesterday and it's raining in hudson today (i work in hudson).

Neat, that's just up the road. Sure, if you see the 8 sitting in the drive, stop-by. It would be nice to meet a fellow 8 owner.

Maybe we can schedule a meeting at Quaker Steak and Lube in Independence some time or somplace more close as well. Car night at Wink's in Barberton is always neat place to go as well.

I just got an 8 about a month ago and i love it, haven't 'done anything to it, just enjoying it so far. I'm from Hudson but i drive down to akron alot to visit my girlfriend because it's where her apartment is. I always see a dark silver one up by the Summa health center and there is a red one with a car bra in the apartment next door. Any of those you guys?

Jon316G 05-21-2007 05:05 PM

I live in Northern Akron (between Howe Ave and Tallmadge).
I've installed an Agency exhaust with a race pipe (sure does increase the sound), an AEM intake, and an Agency under driven pulley. I drive up RT8 to Twinsburg for work. Hope to see you guys around.

Rootski 05-21-2007 06:07 PM

Norwalk, one hour west of Cleveland.

Dietzel316 05-22-2007 06:32 PM

whats up everyone. I live in Columbus right now, but I'm originally from Cleveland. My parents and most of my friends still live up there, so I try to make it north once every couple months. I'm down for a Cleveland meet. It's always cool talking with other owners.

JeffGordon 05-22-2007 10:59 PM

Hey everyone! I'm in Brecksville and so far have the only Lightning Yellow I've seen in the area, so if you see a LY it's probably me.

Gopherage 05-23-2007 11:21 PM

Seems like there are a bunch of us and we should be able to get some get together going sometime. Hey Jon who works in twinsburg is your car black without a spoiler? Because i saw one up there not to long ago. Our cars seem to be rare enough that if you see one in an area someone says they frequent that there is pretty good chance its them.

Jon316G 05-23-2007 11:53 PM

Gopherage:
I actually drive a red RX8 without a spoiler. Just look for the 8 shooting flames from the exhaust :FIREdevil

ALPHAQ 05-24-2007 03:08 PM

I live in the Willoughby area and work out in Cleveland Hts. There are a couple 8's running around my area. We need to get something all figured out, would be good times!!

Gopherage 05-24-2007 05:20 PM

haha i'll keep my eyes open for the flames, i drive a red rx8 also but mine does have a spoiler and no flames haha.

Huhwha 05-24-2007 10:10 PM

We Columbus folks are plannig to go to Mid-Ohio for the Grand Am race. It's just as close for you. Would be great to get more people together. Just reply to that thread if you are interested and we'll get some details together.

Danc 05-25-2007 06:40 AM

Canton Ohio. I have my WWP 8 and I love the thing.

Only problem down here is I see a fellow 8 drive once every.... week? Maybe less?

I'm lonely. Wave if you see me =)

tony_673 05-25-2007 07:43 PM

Where the freak have all of you people been over the past year I've been posting to find people in the Cleveland/Akron area?? No one ever replies! :icon_no2:
