It's a distinction without a difference to non-Jo(h)ns. Even if you tried to spell it Jhonny you'd still get called Jon.

 

That's what I was thinking.... just wasn't sure!

 

 

Doc and Tony...here is another one for you guys...

https://www.rx8club.com/mw-rx-8-forum-31/mazdaspeed-hpde-sign-up-list-150479/

 

Hey everyone, just thought I'd introduce myself... I'm Megan (megz, obviously). I'm the one having the charity auto-x event in Eastlake. Anyway, just saying hi

 

Oh god...now I have to deal with you over here too? geebus...as if just Brian wasn't enough. :P

 

Heh, yep! I figured you missed me over here, not that you don't get enough of me on c6c.. lol

 

RX8club and C6C crossing streams!

 

I really think we just need to rename the c6c to the cmc and get it over with. All this posting/sleeping around is getting weird. :P

 

Look at it this way, now you have a speed3 in your mix of rx8's over here, UHOH, watch out!!!

 

and we are supposed to be scared why?

 

Yeah it's not like we don't already have a Foci owner posting in this thread. At least she sticks to Mazdas.

 

At least the Foci owner has an 8.

 

I was at BeaveRun for their low key AX yesterday. They said the time trial is phenomenal. But they also said it sells out quickly, so when registration opens, we'll have to hop on it. No word on cost.

 

OK, time for SIGNUP for next weeks RX8 Charity Smackdown.

I need names! And, I'm sweetening the pot. In addition to the winner getting a $15 off coupon on a NORA run, I'm throwing in free t-shirts to the top 5 RX8 owners.

Show Meg you care. She me your name! BTW - I'm planning on winning my own prize, so there!

 

I expect to break my AutoX cherry there but can't commit 100% until after this weekend. So feel free to put me as a maybe now and I'll know for sure early next week.

 

I notice several of us signed up for the HPDE event in October. Were people planning to get lodging out there for the Saturday night or commuting back and forth? It's one of those awkward distances that is doable but just far enough away to be a pain. I'm leaning toward staying the night.

 

Just letting everyone know some updates for the event:


> Racing on street tires...
> Racing in "groups" where each individual time is combined with your "teammates" for the best group time of the day (this may be randomly selected, or may be choose your teams the day of)
> Also working on some nice prizes myself, with Kumho, Summit Racing and other vendors

(as with the tire change, classes will be updated appropriately)

 

Nice! Since that's all I have!

That could be fun. Well depending on who gets stuck with someone like me.

Start of the day: 'Sweet! We got an RX-8. That should help our times!'

End fo the day: 'Effin' rotary newb.'

 

Hahaha, same here as far as the tires. And no worries, i've got a good amount of torque, and does it help me a lot, no... stupid fwd, newb driver. lol. You won't be the only new one out, trust me.. I've recruited some new guys to come out at least for this event

 

Sux that I'm working that day. It sounds like it's going to be a load of fun.

 

does that mean no race tires??

 

Got my midpipe installed..... WOW!
I absolutely love it!
SOOOOOOOOOO much better than my single resonator mid-pipe.
I still need to do a run with this mid-pipe to finish the video, which will have to wait until tomorrow morning because there are too many vehicles on the road now.

Ryan: Sorry... no DIY video.
My friend was in a hurry to get it done because he needed to go to bed before work tonight, so I didn't want to take up anymore of his time.
But if you ever do decide to get a mid-pipe and install it yourself, I'll be more than happy to help you out.

 

As of right now, it looks like that. But if people only have race tires, i guess so be it? LOL. It wouldn't hurt to bring em just in case

 

If they only have race tires they might be a little miffed if it rains.

Bummer tho I'm sure I'll be able to manage. Got a couple things I'm getting before a midpipe (although somehow wheels are sneaking up my list ) and really isn't worth it until next year.

Glad it sounds as good as advertised. Looking forward to seeing the flames.
