Where the hell are the RX8 Racers?!

Where the hell are all the RX8 racers? Ive had my RX8 about 3-4 months, so naturally im trying to see RX8’s out there MANHANDLING people on the road! Every street race I roll with my boy who races his Scion I keep finding Honda’s galore (may they all burn in hell), Evo’s and STI’s (much love to them) and even Hundai’s and the occasional Daewoo but no RX8’s! What gives? By the way when I go out with my boy its usually someplace up in b-more. Do we need to go to SoMD or something? By the way, people still race up on Northern Pkway in Baltimore Co? Another friend use to race up there but I know it got kinda hot real fast. By the way where is a place here in md (preferably within reasonable distance to Howard County) that does damn good performance work on rotary engines? I tried VIP Tuning in Westminster but they only do VW’s. There is someplace in Frederick (I cant remember the name of the place) that’s supposed to be damn good but they wanted an arm and a leg (and first born child) to get some work done.

If you dont wanna reply on here just hit me up on myspace (www.myspace.com/aacountydude) or e-mail me (LandonStuckey@pobox.com)

Oh yeah since im new on here and new to the rotary...next time there is a meet can a brother get some extra advance notice?

Because the RX8 isn't a 'fast' straightline car. It's not what it was made for. Street racers find that out and get rid of the car.

Take it to a road course for an HPDE, or an auto-x, and you'll see more RX8s.

for you to manhandle anybody, you'll have to do some major engine work. oh, and street racing is dumb. exciting, yes, but extreamly stupid.
