Me 2 mang. I was looking up in F13, but I have no clue what you look like, lol. We were down in A27. I only get to about half the games, but hey the better half works for mellon, so we usually get a great deal. I sure hope they stay in the 'burgh.

Yep thats for real. Here's the story:
Well, I was about to make my way to work...pull out of the garage...make a slight running start out of the driveway because theres a slight slope and the snow plows slightly plow us in...well right at the end of my driveway as my front end is in the road...my traction control kicks in and I get stopped....I can't move forward at all...my only choice was to try to back up at a wierd angle as straight back wouldn't go....I ended up going back into my yard (didn't know I was that far back)...and ended up sliding about 5 feet more back...and digging myself a nice hole....

Hey folks. I'm a native Pittsburgher but live in Boston now (grew up in Edgewood/Swissvale near Ardmore .Blvd). My 8 is put away for the winter but I will be driving home for the holidays in my Mazdaspeed 3. If you guys are around from the 22nd to the 27th let me know.
Stewy - I'm a huge Pens fan, HUGE. I was at the Pens vs Bruins game the day before thanksgiving. Great game, even though Malkin couldn't come through for us in the shootout. I'll be sportin my authentic Lemieux jersey all xmas long around the Burgh.

Excellent!!! We pwn'd the Flyers tonight, It was awesome seeing Gagne's face planted into the glass in front of me. Go Pens w00t!
As for being around with the 8, I was just hit and run, so I doubt I will have it back by then.

Woohoo...Got my 1st on road acknowledgement from another 8 owner here in the 'Burg (it only took a year). I was so shocked it was hard to respond. Anybody on here with a vr 8 that was circulating around Rt19 yesterday? If so thanks for caring

stewy, try setting something up with the rx7 guys for the spring.
turns out they meet up pretty reguarly and even have some website for west penn / pittsburgh rotary peeps. they do look a little older... i'd say 30ish to midage. hey but who cares?? we're there for teh cars. i think we're about same age though, u and i. i go to pitt also.
i'll be down to go in late feb or march or whenever it stops snowing.
i'm regretting putting my rx8 away so early. it has been quite perfect for driving minus the salt nowadays.
