GA clubs next meeting
 
I am statring a new thread for discussions on were and when we will be having our next meeting. This toppic was getting barried to fast in the club thread.

I'm all for that. I'd love to see them. I'm sure they would love to have us cheer the on. May even let us come back and see them in the paddock area since we're all 8'ers.

Spyder_doo 06-09-2005 01:04 PM

Sounds like fun. I might be able to go. I invite anyone that wants to go watch my car get dyno'd with the new turbo on as soon as it's installed. I'll be going to http://www.dyno4mance.com/
Next time we all get together I want to get everyone's thoughts about it and suggestions on what to do to improve it. Of course this means you're more than likely going to have to at least ride in it or take it for a spin in order to know what it feels like.

What's the next thing that we plan on doing as a group? If everyone wants to, I can talk to the guy that designed my club's stickers and see if he cant make something neat for the GA Club. Just an idea.

So I take it that UPS man finally delivered the goods. Good luck installing it.

Spyder_doo 06-09-2005 01:36 PM

Not really I had to order one from rx8store.net since the other company was going to take 2 weeks to ship it out. They failed to tell me about the backorder they had. Oh well, Jason said it'd take a couple of days to get here.

Oh yeah congrats for the auto cross. How did the auto handle first gear the whole run? The black 8 that was running in stock class(Jeff) finished with a 50.something his last run. That was a blast riding in another 8. Would've caught a ride with you but I was moving out as soon as you pulled in. Maybe next time.

whenson417 06-09-2005 04:43 PM

Thanks, The auto did well in first gear even though my rear tires would spin out when I floored it coming out of the turns. I would change to second gear just before I hit the slaloms. In hind site I think I would have gone a little faster if I had the car rev'd up in second most of the way through but that means I would have been going close to 60mph around a wet course and god knows how many cones I would have hit then.

I wonder how the car would handle if we put people in the back seats as well (it the rules will allow). I bet whoever rides in the back seat would have a blast. I know our times would suck but it would be great for shits and giggles.

Marietta 8 06-09-2005 09:36 PM

Barber sounds great. I have to speak with SpeedSource soon so I'll let em know we're coming.
Go Jaime, I am stoked for you. I am definately a fan of boost.

L8APEX 06-13-2005 10:33 AM

Hey guys,

I am back in town after two weeks off. Good to see that everyone is trying to get a new meet planned. Sounds like Jamie has his hands full with the turbo kit. Can't wait to see that.

I am up for a good drive, although it is getting hot out. It was more mild the last time I was home.

Hey Nabil, so far so good. It is good to be back, I have a lot of catching up to do.

I will have to see about the trip to Birmingham, maybe that weekend will not be busy.

Is anyone interested in doing the July 10th Autocross at the Gwinnet County Fairgrounds?

Also, is anyone else still not getting email updates for the forums. I am still not getting any. I thought it would be fixed by the time I got back.

L8APEX 06-14-2005 09:36 AM

I wish I could just keep this site open all day. I would get a lot less work done.

Oh, wow, I thought I was the only one having that problem. I've just been checking my "Subscriptions" page. works fine but I hate workarounds.

olddragger 06-14-2005 07:49 PM

Why hell
All you young un's need someone matue enough to point out the best hooters at the track--so --count me in dudes. I'll be driving up from Macon. ANyone close by? I may need to drive so I can put some miles on these dang 040's before the next track day. I have to wear them out so I can get some better tires. What time do we meet at Mazcare? Thats an 1 1/2 hr ride for me.
olddragger

SilverEIGHT 06-14-2005 07:56 PM

ALL RIGHT! :D

I'll call Mr. Mazcare tomorrow and see what's up. I don't think he knows we are converging on him yet. I think Nabil wants to get on the road pretty early. What do you think Nabil?
