Auburn Rx8s reveal yourselves!
 

I have seen about 10 rx8s (maybe more) in Auburn. I do not know any of the owners though. Is anybody interested in getting together?

For real...None of you hangs out on the forum?

Its kinda slim pickins to get people in Alabama to get together for meets. Sometimes there are meets in Birmingham for Rotary owners in general. I try to go to Florida (because I live in Dothan, AL) because that is usually where it is happening. Hopefully you find some people though!

im moving to auburn in the fall from a small town outside of bham.. most of the things that go on in alabama are in huntsville... heres mine

Mattrotary looking good! Are you coming at Auburn for school?

I guess it is harder than I thought to get some people together here:( I waive to peole when I see them driving and they do not care. I thought that some of them (especially those with aftermarket parts) would hang out at the forum and they would be interested to go get a beer one day. It would be good to know some locals and get some extra help when working on the car. Where in Florida do you usually go?

I will go to Pensacola, that group of guys are a good bunch. I know its a bit of a drive from Auburn, but if you can get it on a weekend when they all get together, it would be worth your trip. If I was at home right now we could get up and make a drive that way, but Im kinda on the other side of the world.

Thanks for the info. I guess I could combine a small vacation down to Florida with a meeting.

Yea for school... software engineering to be exact lol

I'm an AU alum that lives in B'ham if that counts.

War Damn Eagle!

^ Sure it counts! Should we try to see how many AU graduates are on the forum?

Congrats man! Maybe you can develop a software for the rx8:)

Yea man no problem...A good place to keep up with these guys is in the "Anyone In The Pensacola Area" portion of this forum (SE Forum). That is where they usually post when they are going to meet and where. But keep this on the DL because me being an Alabama fan, my buddies may not appreciate the fact I am helping an Auburn fan out. LoL!

hahahahah! You got it! I will look for you next year when football season starts:) FYI I am from Greece and had no idea about the Auburn Alabama rivalry until I came here. I live in Auburn for three years now and I can say not only that I am an Auburn fan but an Alabamian as well (got engaged this past Christmas with a girl from Fort Payne and plan to get married next year).

i graduated in 03! war eagle. you'll probably see my rx8 this football season. 12-0!

Let me know when you come down here! Can't wait for football season this year! We all belive that it is going to be exceptional!

yeah, definitely. cam newton is badass. if fannin, mccalleb and dyer can get it together in the backfield, and defense comes together like i think it will, we're going to be unstoppable.

Ok so I have to ask then if your from Greece, why Alabama? I am not from there and honestly I am not the biggest fan of the state. But my wife if from there and so we reside there, gotta make to momma happy. Im just curious.

Why... for all of the smart and sexy women of course! Auburn is loaded with 'em. :wiggle:

The reason I am here is education related. I am getting my Ph.D. at Auburn University. Peterlemonjello I have to agree with you! The ladies are sexy here:))) Last week the rodeo was downhere....Man you should see all the ladies with their cowwoman outfits:)))

i lived in Mobile, AL...who gonna meet up in Pensacola hit me up in message...cuz idk where

WAR EAGLE!




that is all

When is it? I have not been in any meeting yet but I would really love to go and meet with other rx8 owners.

War Eagle CarbobRX8!!!

My first semester down here hangin out in Auburn w/ my '10 '8. I would definitely want to hang out with some other Mazda guys one weekend, or even after class one day.

^Welcome to Auburn and wish you a good semester! What are you studying?

I am in Montgomery and obviously keep running into the same wave no response/uninterested people here. For those around here, we could even maybe get together and try and make it out to the last event or two of autocross if you guys are interested. There is one in Bham every month, as well as down in Dothan. Also I would consider myself an Auburn fan, so if any of you guys in Auburn were to organize some sort of shin-dig involving watching a game, I could definitely make it for that.

Kevin unfortunately not many people are interested in getting together. Most of them just do not care:( The autocross events sound like lots of fun. Do you have any more info? Dates?

http://www.sccawiregrass.org/

That is the website for the wiregrass event down in Dothan. The next autocross there is 14th of Nov. The only one left up in birmingham is their charity event, which is a pay per run thing that would probably be disorienting for all of us newcomers. I have not been to an event down in Dothan, but i have heard good things, and they have a lot more space available for their course than the Bham people do. As long as i can get two new tires before then, I plan on going, and maybe a couple of my car people from here will be willing to go to.

Ill keep ya posted here, and if anyone else is interested in going to autocross we could definitely get a group together to go.

Kevin thanks for the info. I saw some videos they posted on the wiregrass forum and it seems fun. I am seriously thinking of trying this event out. It will be my first time autocrossing! I assume that all somebody needs is a helmet. Do I have to buy one or they provide helmets at the event? I plan in tuning up the car next month, decarbon it, oil change, my tires have 4000 miles...so I should be ready to autocross:)

software engineering? haha same here, probably not at AU but im going to college somewhere in alabama for the same thing

I know the one in Bham provieds helmets for the bucketless, and im sure that wiregrass does as well. Ill check later tonight because i cannot get to their site from work. There is also an import faceoff here in montgomery on the 7th that me and a friend plan on going to. He is a photographer to so if anyone else comes down with their car we may be able to sneak in some photo time.

Not an RX8, but... war eagle.

<<from Mobile
When is everyone planning on meeting... I want to attend!
