Car Show winner
 
Well, the area I live in just had its annual Mayfest this past weekend. On Sunday they always have a car show. There were over 250 entries this year. My 2004 RX-8 took second place. I just wanted to share with everybody that if you love your 8 as much as I do, it will definitely love you back. Trophy looks pretty good on display.

Good luck to anyone else taking their 8 to this level!

you have a pic of your car? I'd like to see what beat out 248 cars...

apotocki 05-26-2005 03:15 PM

Hmmmmm......what types of cars were there?

Most of the 'shows' around here are geared towards classic cars (40's-50's-60's-some 70's)

baseballgenius80 05-26-2005 09:17 PM

I don't have any pics loaded up yet, but I will soon. It was all a large asortment of cars. Everything from the 30's on up. I'll post the pics as soon as I have them for you. The car has a custom paint job on it and also has a $6000+ custom audio and video system. Among other things currently and to come.....

Well this years 05 Senior Favorite Car at my school was my friends Blue RX8 base model. However he parks in the middle of the school basically so everyone sees his car and not mine because I park on the street.

Oh well atleast it went to an 8 instead of a Porsche Boxter (3400s) or Corvette.

coupe07 05-26-2005 11:33 PM

any pics to showcase??

jenkins-crew 05-26-2005 11:39 PM

Especially pics of the system, well just show us everything :D

baseballgenius80 05-27-2005 07:19 AM

Still trying to get a hold of a digital camera to post some pics. To think, I can afford this car, but I can't even get myself to go out and buy a digital camera, let alone a regular one. Might just have to break down and buy a throw away camera just so I can get some pics up for you guys.

jenkins-crew 05-27-2005 07:20 AM

Works for me, I'm curious!

Nubo 05-27-2005 03:53 PM

Tell us about the paint job

XDEEDUBBX 05-27-2005 04:11 PM

khtm 05-30-2005 09:10 AM

jenkins-crew 05-30-2005 10:03 AM

Is this tread just TALK ??????

Nemesis8 05-30-2005 10:38 AM

So far....

Thetitanium8 05-30-2005 11:29 AM

Sounds good. Pics would make it good :p

Pete 05-30-2005 01:01 PM

My RX8 WON BEST CAR IN THE UNIVERSE ... but i don't have pics ;)

khtm 05-30-2005 02:34 PM

^ lol

mjcampb 05-30-2005 07:26 PM

You could take a picture of a white RX8 from the web and then draw some colors on it using a paint program of your choice. This would allow us to get some kind of idea how it's painted. :D

nomopistons 05-30-2005 08:40 PM

Didn't Boostd7 say it looked like a bumble bee? Has he seen it?

baseballgenius80 06-01-2005 08:42 AM

Should have pics posted within the next couple days. Trying to get copies of the pics the instal shop took of the audio/video system install. And for the guys who think I am all talk, I will make sure to post a pic of the trophy also. Sorry this is taking so long, I know it makes my credibility look bad. But patience is a virtue, just bare with me please.

And no, BOOSTD hasn't seen it yet. He said that the description of the paint scheme sounded like it would appear like a bumble bee.

jenkins-crew 06-01-2005 09:33 AM

We were just messin with you to make you post pics quicker :D

MDRX8 06-02-2005 03:23 PM

i won the award for the best stock looking rx8 last week at the lowrider car show....hahha.. i beat out the 69 impala with a 15 color paint job...

BlueFrenzy 06-06-2005 02:09 PM

Hmmm ... I saw that pics were attached so I thought ... "Finally something". Then I see KHTM and Triggerx1's pics! Ha ha too funny. I was wondering how I can get a custom job like that? Does it take long to do because I'm not the most mechanically inclined guy.

KHTM, I heard it has something to do with the DSC?

Really? Sweet! What do you need for that mod? Would a crowbar do? Or perhaps a Ford Taurus to back up into?

Just lend me your car for an hour or two...it'd be my pleasure :D

TR1GGERx1 06-06-2005 08:10 PM

let me drift it for you

baseballgenius80 06-08-2005 09:05 AM

Yeah, thanks guys. My hard drive crashed at home and now I am trying to get my home pc fixed. Right now, I only have internet access from work. I don't have the ability to post the pics from here. I'll try and see if I can post the pics tonite from my friends pc. Go ahead shoot me down, I can take it. Maybe I can salvage some dignity if I can ever get these pics posted. And to my procrastination, at least I finally got the pics developed. Which I'm sure I will be given no redemption for.

khtm 06-08-2005 09:07 AM

That's nice, but all I hear is "Bla bla bla I never actually won a car show bla bla bla"



:D

baseballgenius80 06-08-2005 09:15 AM

Sorry khtm, but I will try and resolve your hearing problem by posting the pics this evening.

xdrian 06-08-2005 09:18 AM

dont beat on this guy, maybe he has to scan them throught his scanner and now he has to figure out how to post them.

baseballgenius80 06-08-2005 09:34 AM

Thank you xdrian, at least I have someone with patience on my side. Thanks, and like I said, I'll try and have the pics posted tonite.

pretzeL 06-08-2005 09:59 AM

The night beckons....
 
Liiiisten 2 the sound of my voice...u wiiiiil poooost the picsss right now...riiiight now..."snap"...did it work? :p

khtm 06-08-2005 12:13 PM

I think the most frustrating thing is that you started a thread about winning a car show without having any pics.

Nobody wants to read about your car, we want pics! Pics, damnit! Pics!
