----------------------
Anyone have any interest in a local meet next week in Fairfax, VA area? I frequent NASIOC (Subaru forum) and hang with those guys at their weekly meets (either Wednesdays or Thursday nights...mostly Wed. though) They usually start at about 7pm in the parking lot to chat/B.S. and then go in to eat at a predetermined restaurant at about 7:45ish...anyway, I kinda want to meet some of you guys and I think the STi/WRX/Legacy guys would enjoy some more company...or we could start our own weekly/bi-weekly meet?

I haven't been very active on this board so far but I have been on the Subaru boards almost since they started. I have had a couple WRXs and an STi then decided to get a Miata ('91 BRG) and then added my 2005 Whitewater Pearl RX-8 to my Mazda collection. Also, my brother is a RX-7 nut and we are in the prcocess of a tranny swap on his current RX-7. It is a 1993 Montego Blue Touring w/only 30k original miles. This thing is in awesome condition.

Anyway, I just wanted to say hello w/some background on myself and see if any of you would be interested in this. Also, if this is already happening and I am ignorant please lead me in the right direction.

Later,
Joe

Yeah, I'd be curious about meets in the area

I am a new owner of an RX-8
And I like to call myself a car enthusiast wannabe.....
I've been interested in cars forever, but am just now finally having an opportunity to learn about them
And really alls I do is speed around driving like a maniac
haha

So anyways, I'm up for meets in the area

Of course I'm more in the MD area.....near Silver Spring
Seems like there are alot of Virginians around this board...

This forum is sooooooooooooooooo slow compared to NASIOC. Come on people...well, hanging out with the Subaru guys is fun anyway.

Later,
Joe

I'm with ZoomZoom ... just pick a time and jump on it. Personally, during the week is easier - on most weekends I have Das Kidlet.

How about next Thursday (7/6) in the Target Parking Lot in Fair Lakes Shopping Center at 7:15pm? People can decide on where to eat once we get there...Red Robin, Applebees, Don Pablos, Wendys, Tonys Pizza, Red Pepper, Arigato Sushi...and more all in the same Plaza.

I'll probably be able to make it - but I'll have the Das Kidlet with me. She loves to talk.
