Ya know, when it happened I almost did. I have never been so crazy about a car till I laid eyes on this one. Look what it gets me! Besides, if I dont laugh...Ill cry.
The mechanic seems quite knowledgeable and it is generally all suspension and body repair. I would be really worried about it if the powertrain was invovled at all. As of 5/28 they are estimating week to week&1/2. So Im starting to get excited. Alot of my buddies all say that it wont be the same, but Ive got my fingers crossed.

I totally agree. Wanna play host this month?

Paradigm, when is Rev It Up? We can plan around it. Day before or after or something.

Pico, I would love to help organize but this might not be the best month for me to lead. I just found out that I have 2 different friends in town that weekend so I might be up in the air. Is that weekend the same weekend as Rev It Up in Miami? If I remember correctly, Rev It Up is both days. I actually had hoped to attend one of them but that is up in the air now as well. I would imagine most of us will be trying to make it down there. Maybe we should just connect in Miami if enough people are going? That is where one of my friends will be coming into so it might be convenient for me.

Lets meet up for some beers the week prior! Im planning on going to rev it up. But I guessing it is going to be packed.

And RX8GATOR...you should be ashamed of yourself for not sharing the story, pics, and heartache with the rest of us. We want details! LOL! Glad to hear your getting your baby back. Hope no injuries occured in your misfortune.

The wife backed it ito a telephone pole tearing up the rear bumper. I didn't take pictures because I want no memories of it. I drove it like that for a month until I had the cash to fix it. F*** the insurance companies!
