ordering mid ohio ticket thursday. caravan to it? let me know details. time, place, day

 

I would love to do this except my schedule doesn't work out too well for it. And I hate going to places like that on the weekends, too many people for me.

I'll have to see about mid-ohio. Sundays are usually pretty busy for me, might just go saturday idk.

 

I'd like to see some of the Rolex morning practice, so I'm looking to get on the road by 9:00 Friday. Saturday I'm bringing my wife, probably leaving home bewtween 11 & 12 to make it up there for lunch, some of the Continental race and,of course, the main event at 5:00.

Anybody who wants to join me at those times, let me know. Let's have a good Columbus turnout!

 

yeah for sure. the longer i'm there probably the better!

 

hey guys the rx8 took a rear end in my road someone missed and somehow hit my baby. the rear end took a hit that wont be an easy fix but fixable.

i am looking for an exhaust will take aftermarket. rear bumper prefer white. left tailight and bumper support and foam insterts. so if you guys have these parts laying around and i am looking for a mazdaspeed rear lip as mine got fucked lol.

 

Hi All,

Hey Jeff, Ra long time, no see!!

Does anyone know someone whos looking to buy an 8? If so, I'm selling mine. '04 Sunlight Silver GT w/47,000 miles, navigation, clear corners, LED accents and more. It's NEVER been raced or autocrossed. I just never had the chance working 2 jobs. I have only put about 6,000 miles on the car in the 2 1/2 years I have had it. Only thing it needs is a new drivers side sun visor, mines gone limp. Also, the strakes are not the factory ones and were $75 ebay knockoffs. They are coroded, but are easy to replace or remove all together. For those who don't know, they add zero to the car as far as mechanical or driving goes. They are just cosmetic add-ons.

I want $15,000 for just the car. I have tons of extras I never got around to putting on the car. $16,500 for the car and ALL the extras listed below.

man! i hope everything gets fixed soon! it was good cruising with you for a bit! the intake is doing great so far. gonna try to make a duct that goes thru the front like you see on some drag cars. just so i dont suck up warm air from the radiator.

 

i believe they make a hose kit for it leme find it for ya i was gonna get it but i never got around to looking into it lol.

 

let me know and then text me dude!

 

Will,

Sorry to hear you're leaving the fold .

I wish you luck in the sale, but you may need a gun at that price! If you get 10 grand out of an 04, you're probably doing well.

If you can, send me a pic of the b-pillar appliques. I have to do something, as my drivers door plastic is scratched.


Thanks

 

Ok - anybody that's interested; I'll be at the Pilot gas station at the Rt 36 exit off 71 around 9:15 Friday and 11:45 Saturday.

Jarrod - I'll pm you my cell. Anybody else that needs it - shoot me a pm.

Who's in?

 

im in. i have no idea where that is but i will find it. i would be taking 270 to 71 passing easton.

 

Take 270 to 71 north towards Cleveland. First exit is Polaris. Next exit is Rt 36. I'm pretty sure the Pilot station is to the right once you get to the top of the exit ramp.

 

it's past the gemini exit too?

 

Sorry - yes. I consider the Gemini exit and the Polaris exit to be one single exit. The Rt 36 exit is past both of them. A bit after the Gemini/Polaris interchange there's a rest stop that, I think, is closed down. Rt 36 is just after the rest stop.

 

i wish the rest stop was open. that would be a sweet place to just always meet up. kind of like a parking area in japan. ps who has the black 8 that lives in the dublin area? probably many people but i saw one today around noon on riverside

 

I'm still debating, good chance I will go saturday. No way I can make friday tho due to work/softball =/

 

Jeff, I will be at the track early on Friday, checking out the corral etc. I will be at the SpeedSource Paddock most of the day, as I will be assisting the #69 car in the pits. We should have a good turnout, with the Columbus, and Cleveland/Akron guys, we have a few people coming out from VA and one guty from CT and a number of Midwest folks too, IL, IN, MI.

I don't have a car count as of yet, but we'll have folks on the ground Saturday handling parking etc. Here is my cell if you need anything:

440-382-3636

See you next week!

 

Marlon,

Sounds great! I'm shooting to arrive about 10ish Friday. I'll track you down and see if I can help with anything then.

Guys,

In light of Marlon's other post (https://www.rx8club.com/grand-am-experience-mazda-owners-137/3rd-annual-mid-ohio-mazda-corral-196545/), the Columbus caravan will hammer down from the Pilot at 10:00 Saturday, in order to make the sign-in for the pace laps!

I look forward to seeing everybody next week!

 

gahh i cant wait. actually today i woke up and thought "**** i'm late!"

 

who's the tigrey 8 that lives off taylor and taylor station? i see it parked out front of the house like every time i cruise by.

 

Still slightly tentative myself for the race next weekend, but things are looking good. I might be there on Friday, but that's doubtful...probably just Saturday. Might join you guys in leaving from Pilot at 10 too. There was a great turnout last year...here's hoping we beat it this year. By the way Marlon, any final agenda or schedule of events that's available? Probably bringing the wifey this time and, while she won't admit to it, I think she'd like to gawk at Dempsey.

 

Brian,

Glad to hear you might make it! I'm not sure that Patrick will make it, but my wife will be there Saturday anyway.

 

got my ticket. ready to roll. arrived in literally less than a day!

 

http://columbus.craigslist.org/cto/1794179570.html probably asking too much. but it's what i have left on my payments. brings a tear to my eye that i even had to post it.
