i have been seeing a lot of RX8's on post, mostly by the airfield. i always give a friendly wave.

anyone around?

Is yours white? I pass a white RX8 often on EastGate road.

I've got a sliver - which spends my work-days parked in the parking lot behind JAG/Post HQ/and 525 Replacement (across from the new lodge)

I'm part of 2-12 FA over in that area. I'm the silver 8 thats parked over in 202's B's parking lot, do to them moving us and i know there is a grey one thats still in the 2-12 parking lot.

my schedule has been a little strange, i have been going to sleep at around 11am, waking up at 8pm and staying awake until 11am again.

its monday the 7th and im doing a 24 hour shift on staff duty. so ill probably be going to sleep when i get off at 9am or stay up until 10 or 11am and then wake up as early as possible.


i think we have spoken before, do you work over at the place where you get a 'stomp test' done?

dmp

Being that I have no idea what a stomp-test is...I'll say no. :D

Do you know where JAG is? I work in that building; I can see the new Lodge right out of my office window.

I'm in a titanium grey just North of Ft. Lewis, almost in Steilacoom. I got a nice RX8 wave from another titanium grey out there the other day. Any one of you?

Any time you folks get near the Flag Pole (Corps HQ), holler, and we'll do lunch.

saw another 8.. a titanium grey with black wheels.. they honked, i flashed and my passenger told me i'm an rx8 dork..

I have an 04 GT thats TI Grey, I have the matching rims and the Streetglow/AEM decals on rear windows, I'm also the only ti grey RX8 on post with red brake calipers (from what ive seen). I see TONS of RX8's on post, but not too many off post. I usually throw a deuce at you guys, or atleast honk. There are almost as many RX8's on post as there are Evo's. Those things are multiplying. Glad to see everyone is here on the Forums though!

on the 27th of this month there's gonna be another drive.. bunch of people with rx8's all hanging out.. good place if for nothing else to meet people and ask questions.. here's the link

ok i saw another 8 today.. was in front of me going out of the log gate at about 530pm.. nice clean black one.. i know he saw me, cause i pulled up next to him, gave the nod then went back to following him out of the log gate.. wasn't trying to follow, but that's how i get home too.. there must be at least 10 rx8's on post and that, i think, is a conservative number..

dmp

Did you know the (recently departed) Deputy Corps Commander drives an RX8? He and I talked about it a lot.

bigireland

ok, i gotta bump this thread because there are way too many rx8's on post for that many people to not know about this site.. i've told at least 4 people.. we could definitely get a good sized group going..

demonsniper1

Well I just got back in town and after we get back from block leave me and a buddy will have are 8's up in the parking lot of Bldg 3422 over next door to the ranger's camp off of 2nd Div. drive.

dmp

and...I'm no longer a Fort Lewis Employee...moved on to Fort Rucker.

bigireland

sad to see you go.. even though we never met face to face.. i'll try to make it to your send off..

demon, soon as i figure out where that's at, i'll hit you guys up..

demonsniper1

Go to main gate and drive down that road(pendelton I think), make left at airfield and go to the end of airfield then make a right on 2nd div drive. Take that road until you see a compound which is the Ranger's compound, we are the building right before that one. We are both leaving on the 2nd to fly down to AZ to get his car then driving to my brother's in CA to get mine then im coming back up, dont know about him.

bigireland

ok. i do pt at soldiers field house gym.. i think that's close to where you are then.. maybe we can do lunch on monday since you leave on tuesday..

demonsniper1

Cant I have work at noon for a pratice run for the gay welcome home thing we're doing on the 1st. I have been seeing a blue 8 with stock polished rims next to the airfield next door to my B's, anybody know the owner?

bigireland

stock polished? i got those but i rock a sunlight silver.. i haven't seen that one..

demonsniper1

Yea stock polished, I guess i'll just have to put a note on it saying "the RX8club.com knows about joo!!" this week when I see it. If he/she/it's on then it'll come in here, if not then he/she/it might join. Either way its one more person to add to the list of people for a meet some time on base.
