at first i thought you were talking about another meet. i'm a member of a local rotary car owners meetup club and there's a meet that night at American Indoor Karting which i will be going to. There's mostly going to be RX7's there.

here's a link to the page with details

Got ur PM, bro... Good lookin' on the comms.

So, what's going on RX-8s'? I almost jumped on a, "Take over payments," buy from someone here on base.

Alright, I'm on the mazda6club forums everyday and I've come to realize that their are quite of few MAZDA owners here in VA. Sad fact is, no members are actively meeting in groups so I have finally stepped up.

We'll be meeting next Saturday @ 1200. 12:00pm. @ the Navy Exchange on Tomcat blvd. I'm not sure of the exact address, but I work on base about 200 yards away on the same street and my address is: 1550 Tomcat blvd suite 150
Virginia Beach, VA 23460
Who will be there?
3 or 4 M6s'
3 or more M3s'
A RX-7 (if he gets his turbo in)
A RX-8 (Derex'8)

The list is growing and I'll update as it goes. I hope a few of you guys can make it out.

What will we be doing? Still in the air so if you have any suggestions, shoot.

If you have a better location, let me know and I'll try to push for it. Somewhere that's has alot of space (obviously) Keep in touch and be easy.

i might show up to this one as well. its really too cold out for a parking lot type of meet.

there's another meet for rotary cars at 6pm at AIK in Portsmouth. for those of you that don't know AIK is an indoor go-kart track.

i will definitely be at the AIK meetup. it will mainly include RX-7's and a couple RX-8's. last month there was a guy with an old school RX-3.

sorry for the thread jack BTW

Alright, fellas... The meet in Portsmouth sounds cool and I'd be down for a lil' in-door go kart ridin' if I were invited... Do you think we mazda6club members could come thru??? If, yes... What's the exact address? If, no, then that's cool...

Anyway, we might be switching our meet location to: 4554 Virginia Beach Blvd, Virginia Beach, VA 23462... That's the Pembroke mall, but I will get back to you guys on that.

Derex'8, you coming thru or what, homie??? I'll hit you up today or during the week.

Will...

Cool beans... I'll hit you up later today. We got to meet up and talk and you gotta check out my tinted tails and side markers.

Wifey knew all about AIK. A friend of mine has been there a few times and says it's fun so... Alright you guys, keep me informed of what you all up to. Late...

i'm sure nobody will mind if you come out with a 6 or any other mazda. everyone seems pretty chill. last meet we had in January there was an old school corolla and an RX-3.

so far only 6 people from the group said they are going and 6 maybe's.

click here and then click the link on the right side of the page for more info on AIK.


oh yeah and i'd like more info on the tinted tails too and possibly tinted headlights.

I'll prolly come thru AIK and I'll try to get Derex'8 to roll with me...

Bout' the tinted tail/ headlights... Well, I got that off the mazda6club.com site and you can check it out on the mazda6tech.com site. It's for our oem parts, though... Send me your email and I give you a few pix of my set-up...
