If the date/time are compatible, I wouldn't mind joining up with some other 8 owners. Had mine a year now...getting the itch to see what other goodies folks have added to their cars.

As long as the time works for me I should be in. It would be good times to meet some new people. As for the specs on my 8, it is bone stock right now. I am in between jobs so had to put buying stuff on hold. The rims and the kit will be here this summer though, so i am excited for that.

April Fools Day (Sunday) sounds entirely appropriate! 1:30ish? I could do Saturday as well, if that works better for other people.

Anybody else have some input? Who's in?

I, with the help of Ra, finally got my side areo flares off and the car is now sitting in the garage naked. I cleaned it today and got the front bumper back on, so in a pinch I could drive it but I'll probably show up in the Mazda 5 if we decide to get together.

Ra, barring the return of his car, should have alot of goodies to show us if he's available.

Anthony - that was fun. We should have more group un/installs.

A possible meet this weekend is not helping my patience! I hope to have the car back this week. Eitherway, I should be able to make it - worse case it'll be in a Mazda3. I'd prefer sometime after 1 on Sunday.

We should try to get Jason from rx8store to come out as well.

Wow, this happened fast. Usually it takes a month to fire this group up for a meet. Nice work noobies.

Rita's is across the street so I'll be making a little trip over there before we adjurn for the day. Mmmmm gelato......................

PS - Brian, Any chance that you'll be driving a Ferrari when you come see us? Please?

I'll try to make it out on Sunday too. On a side note, I love this car but I've had some unfortunate luck with it in the last 6 months. The October hail storm left $4k worth of the damage and then I woke up on New Years day to find a bullet hole in my roof (obviously from some stray shot up in the sky that night). Last night, after playing some b-ball at OSU, I see that someone must have carelessly backed up (or intentionally hit?) into my right side front bumper causing some significant damage. I managed to take the bumper off today and push out the dent from the inside but there's still some paint damage and my right side clear corner is damaged so I had to put the yellow stockers back on. Do people just not care about others peoples property?! I'm so sick of it!! On that note, do any of you guys have any extra right side clear corners hanging around?

Here are a couple of pics I took. Looking forward to the next meet.

Yep, that was a lot of fun guys! I'm looking forward to the next one...hopefully we can do it again soon. Also, if any of you guys get up the gumption to get a track day going, let me know. I wanna test out my chops.
