Just got the truck today. Will be packing tonight and shipping out tomorrow. We will be headed to Arizona for a few weeks and will end up in Palmdale, Ca. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone here for all the good times. I learned a lot about our awesome car and although I still have a ways to go in that respect, thanks to you all, I'm well on the path.

Since I'll be in the Southern California area, that means you guys will have yet another living room to crash out in on your way to next years Sevenstock. Hope to see some of you there. Take care all.

I'm in Arizona now. I'm hanging out at my sisters house out in Queen Creek. I'll be heading out to SoCal next week. I have an interview scheduled for the 20th. Assuming I get the job, if you guys need a living room to crash out in on the way to next years SevenStock, I shall provide.

Dude! Come to the Scottsdale Pavilions tonight. It's a local car show and a bunch of the local Mazda heads will be in attendance. Would love to see another RX8'er.

Wack. I just saw this now. I would have definitely showed up had I just peeked in earlier. Thanks for the invite though. If there is anything else going on between now and Wednesday, I'll show up. After that, I'm headed back to California for my interview.

Update: I'm still hanging out in the AZ. Had a great set of holidays, hope you guys did too. Yesterday the RCCAZ(Rotary Car Club of Arizona?) hosted a mountain drive and go karting session. It was my first time hanging out with the local crowd and it was a blast. Met Easy E1, Nopistonz, MazdaManiac and others as well. After that Erick(Easy E1) and I went to Charles' (from BHR) place and hung out for a while. All in all a good day. I'll put up some pics of it soon.

Here are some of the pics from Jan 1 RCCAZ gathering.. It was funny because there a bunch of cyclists riding the mountain as well(didn't we have that same problem the time KristopherD slew that bird with his oil cooler?). Really slowed us down going up the mountain.
