I actually have a mount that I'm going to place in the radiator opening but I just ran out of time before the meet. In the week leading up to the meet I spent the majority of every night trying different angles for the camera and placement of the mic. The mic turned out to be a big challenge. It is so sensitive that it was picking up every sound including the movement of my clothes! 
In the end the experimentation paid off and I was able to get some decent shots of the meet. Anyways, I had a lot of fun creating the video and I'm glad that you enjoyed it.

So Noel, what was your favorite part?
My favorite is the Watkins Glen video and I still can't believe my eyes when I watch the flaming Borla.

I want to get everyone together at the end of this month or possibly the beginning of next month to talk about turning this into a real club, the New England RX-8 Club to be exact. 
I just need to find a good place for us to meet then I'll post the details of where and when it will be.

Sounds great, I think this is a really great idea.
And if the snow has managed to disappear, it would be fun to do another drive, especially with summer tires!
I may be the only 8 running around with studded snows, but I know I’m not the only one running some form of winter snow tires… and I think I can safely say that the itch to put my summer tires/rims back on is starting to get uncontrollable!
Thanks Speed Racer for taking such an active role and lead on this.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I just had my new summer tires mounted last week. They are just begging to be put on but I don't think that is going to happen this week with snow in the forecast.

There is a NER/SCCA autocross at Devens Airfield on April 4th. That might be a place to meet.

New England RX-8 Club coastal drive video
my10ae was nice enough to put the video up on his website so that everyone would be able to download it. The video features multiple camera angles, great sounds from a Borla exhaust, and a dozen RX-8s! So check it out when you get a chance.
WARNING! The file is almost 100MB.

P.S. All of the video clips were done with an AutoXcam.
