RX-8 Cape Cod Run

Greeting fellow Mazda owners,

As some of you may gather I live on Cape Cod and after reading several threads of interest in a run here I thought it's time to start an interest thread on its own. We had a small gathering at the begining of the summer and it was a great time. Now that the fall season is around the corner and things are slowing down here it's another great chance to enjoy the weather on Cape Cod and a fun run.

Date
September 30 (date set)

Itinerary
Meet between 10:00-11:00AM at the canal parking lot.
- Start at Cape Cod canal for meet and photoshoot
- Drive the Service Rd. (the fun run for about 8 miles)
- Mini Golf at Pirates Cove (www.piratescove.net)
- Lunch at Kreame N' Cone (Really good food cheap.)
- Cruise down Main St. Hyannis
- Stop at Craigville Beach for photoshoot

Directions
First half of route.
Second half or route.

Starting point: Use attached map
Rt. 495 south turns into Rt. 25
- Take exit 2
- Keep to the left and go around the circle (rotary)
- As road straightens out keep to the right. (Rt.6 a.k.a. Scenic Hwy)
- Go straight through first set of lights.
- Approx 1.5 miles you will be going down a steep decline to a stoplight.
- At stoplight take right into parking lot.

i remember doing this in my 350z with all those guys, it was awesome. we had 67 350Z's, 6 G35 coupes, and a handful of other random cars. such a fun time, i hope this one comes together, maybe as an annual event as they did.

We certainly won't have that many cars. We would be lucky if there are 50 members in MA.

If your coming Boosted add your name to the list with dates.

I'm interested in this run, but I don't know what my schedule's like towards the end of Sept yet.

Sept 30 looks good for now. Hopefully, I can make it.

Updated first post with time to meet. 9/30 is looking like the best date to accomodate most everyone.

On another note, how does everyone feel about having some other Mazda guys in the run? Some Protege 5's, Miata, etc.

Sorry to hear you won't make it, but happy for the wedding.

I usually take about 100 pics or so.
