that would be cool. i had been toying with the idea of doing the saturday rookie course but put it out of my mind b/c i was supposed to be in philly and when i found out i didn't need to go, i wussed out and didn't sign up.

dmc27 03-19-2009 02:52 PM

registration is closed plus i'm a wuss and too lazy to swap back to my OEM front so that the Shine AB front doesn't get banged up when i run into all those cones. but i will try and be there sunday to watch keith in his new '09 with the people who actually know how to auto-x.

CTrx8 03-21-2009 11:19 AM

bump - is anyone else going to stratford tomorrow?

longpath 03-21-2009 03:28 PM

I'm dead in the water until May. The wife is tied up with tax season, working 7 a week, so I'm looking after my daughter on weekends. For those of you able to make it, have a great time!!!

shodan 03-21-2009 08:56 PM

CTrx8 03-21-2009 10:17 PM

if i can make it, i'll probably try to make it around 11am. i haven't seen a ton of interest from anyone else so if there is a better time i'm open to suggestion.

CTrx8 03-22-2009 08:48 AM

i'm a no-go today. not feeling well this morning but hope anyone that goes has fun. if i feel any better and it's still going on, i'll try to head over.

shodan 03-22-2009 09:16 AM

I don't think anyone is going

1probeguy 03-22-2009 06:53 PM

i'm sorry for trying to hi jack this thread but does anyone have a decent set of oem rx8 rims that are in good condition for sale at a decent price in CT, RI, or MA?

Blackout04RX 03-27-2009 12:07 AM

Hey guys, I am aware that this weekends probably a dead idea, but I had thought about doing a bigger meet in hopes of drawing a bit of a crowd out to start the season off. Thats just a pipe dream at the moment, but as for next weekend, I vote we do a meet up at the same location off of 95 as it is a good mostly centralized location, different plan for food and whatnot. That italian place sucked, and obviously didnt attract much of a crowd. But there is good photo ops in that general area, soooo yeah

WinningRX8Chick 03-27-2009 05:14 AM

I'm getting together with some other Mazda owners on Sunday 3/29 in Farmington for a little cruise then food. We're meeting at the Greenbriar Business Park across from the Wood N Tap at 2 pm. If you're coming from 84, it's a left turn at the light by the Wood N Tap. We'll go for a cruise then grab food somewhere either near the West Farms Mall or at the Wood N Tap.

Blackout04RX 04-21-2009 09:57 PM

It's been a while since we saw any action, few weeks since a get together. I am down not for this weekend, but next sounds good to me.

xlude 04-21-2009 11:27 PM

I am down for something soon.

Blackout04RX 04-22-2009 01:05 PM

agreed. the next few weekends are pretty booked for me (unless we do this sunday) between being out of town and having mother's day coming up. this weekend looks to be awesome weather so maybe that could be a nice little meet. i don't know what exactly a swap meet has at it but what about this? https://www.rx8club.com/ne-rx-8-forum-29/connecticut-2009-swap-meet-rotor-mania-ostc-car-show-more-165337/

StyleRide 04-23-2009 04:06 PM

Dude im defs down for this sunday, got work on friday and saturday but sunday im free

hell i live in Oxford/Southbury but i got me a GPS so its all good Lol

CTrx8 05-14-2009 09:11 AM

wow - this idea went nowhere fast. i'm out of the state this weekend and have a pretty busy few weekends coming up but wanted to see if there is any interest in picking this back up.

xlude 05-15-2009 11:02 PM

I am up for a meet. I have been waiting for something to happen.

J-Rex 05-17-2009 11:49 AM

I'm new on the board here but it'd definately cool for a CT meetup, only 8s I see are autos driven by middle aged women

john64 05-17-2009 08:06 PM

Guys, try cross posting on the RX 7 forum. You might get better luck getting more then 4 people out.

CTrx8 05-18-2009 07:35 AM

well, here it is for this weekend. let's see if we can get some better representation out this time so it doesn't seem like such a bust to put something together and have no one show. DMC posted and here is the link: https://www.rx8club.com/ne-rx-8-forum-29/mystic-aquarium-sat-may-23rd-173892/

do you mind posting this over at the 7 forum, john?
