Picture of the fastest RX8 on day 2 at the 2011 SCCA TireRack Solo National Championships!
I had a rear control arm break on day 1 causing me to finish 12th overall out of 43. Clinching the last trophy spot.

Nice pics TopGear!

Jedi, with your post count and that sexy beast of yours I'm shocked you have so few in this thread! Probably to keep the masses guessing....

TopGear: sorry to hear about the broken control arm but grats on the successful weekend!

Here's a few random pics I took at the FSC 2011 car show a few weeks ago.

Both cars look incredible! The intercooler behind the Au-to Bahn bumper looks bad ***!

Ngo took home Best in Show so apparently the judges loved the intercooler as well.

I do need to post more pics of my car once I start changing things up again.

Chip: thanks!
The judges had a rough day especially given the cars that were there. Ngo, Gregs, and myself all there.

Here's my 2004 Sport after a recent cleaning (including a clay bar). In the last picture I was trying out my autocross number. Unfortunately, the event was rained out.

Wow so many great pics of black Rx8's..... Im hopefully going to be picking up mine in a week. Trying to finalize financing this week..... cant wait to be in the rx8, the MS6 just isnt satisfying my performance car needs as far as handling and feel. In the looks catagory the Rx8 is just in a class of its own

I cant wait to have my very own. Love the pic of the Rx7 and Rx8 btw.....both cars=sex!

Had an impromptu photoshoot a little while ago. So impromptu that I didn't have a tripod and therefore only one image "kinda" turned out. I had to make it rather small to make it look acceptable.

I'm sure there will be PLENTY more in the future.
