look at my pic of my subs and amp, when i drive they go all over the plac so i need to buy some clamps to hold them, so they can stop sliding around my trunk, i tried screws and they get ripped with ther vibration, so i though that something to clamp them down with would work, ive seen them before but im not sure what there call.

yeah they are man, ive had my licence revoked two times already, thas why i wont stop anymore. "well when i know i have a good chance" i did the same thing a while back but didnt have a camera. its a rush, just if you are going to do it make sure its in a really curvy road that way they have no chance, yesterday, i knew from the point he saw me i had to make a run for it, i dunno if your familiar with morgantown at the cheatlake trails but thats where that clip went down. i dunno if you can tell but i knew i was leaving with out a problem i was chillax untill i got on the main road cause them crownvics are crazy quick.

I got away from a cop on 68... You know the last couple of miles before the Morgantown exit where it gets real steep and curvy? Cop had no chance by the time he pulled out I was already out of sight

ye the thing about here is that there is only 3 vr 8s so ive only done it 2xs in real curvy roads, other wise no common sence to try to outrun a cop, actually no chance since now the have the hemi chargers, but like i said before anytime during a weekend any1 wants to go on a rx8 rideout around here or somewhere close im all for it.

Hoping for good weather so we can meet up...

Yup, used to autocross my Z06 in Chas & Cross Lanes (Sam's).
The 8's rule in Solo II class with good tires and good gas!
Really a road racer at heart, although Summit Point is our nearest track.
Not exactly stock anymore...

Well now, I will have to work my way over to the capital market to see your 8, I have been thinking of a catback but want to hear one in person first.

All the neon guys from the old days now drive Vette's, the next one is gonna be at the Hurricane wave pool and is more of a charity event.

Hey, welcome!
I know Barboursville/Huntington well.
Just don't let them talk you into burning couches up there...

I'm a FL "implant" as well (Broward, Dade & Duval)...
Lemme know who's gonna be in Dunbar for the Early Bird Car Show on 5-8-10.
It sure would be nice for a few 8's to come crashin' in on them!

After being in Florida all my life I have never been able to experience driving my 8 around these winding roads in the hills, man those types of roads really let me see what my 8 can do.

I would like to go to the car show if I didn't have the dent in my drivers rear quarter from sliding in the snow a few months ago. I can probably go to a paint-less dent removal since there is no paint scrape-age.

If I can get it fixed by then I'd like to check out the Show.

You can add another RX-8 to southern WV. I just bought my first tuner car and rotary engine vehicle and let me tell you its a blast to look into forums and learn again. I'm an avid car builder since i was about 6 but this car is all different to me. I just purchased an '05 in excellent condition. I'm currently living in Princeton so if anyone knows of any upcoming shows in the area I would love to go check out some cars. I've been out of the state stationed in NC for most of my career so I've been out of the loop.

There are a few, but it seems impossible to get more than 2 together at a time!
Give me a shout when you are near Chas, I'll do the same for Huntington.
