FD Rey

You still haven't told me where I can buy that hat.

Mantis

Thanks FDRey, I was about to say the same thing....Mazda said it was one of the largest reported events at a dealership in Florida.....

I can get you a hat made anytime....we have a thread for hat orders on the flrx8club.net site under suggestions. i can get any color and any thread color.....

I have never seen that many 8s together in one place. Here are a few pics for the preacher..... this link is a roof shot of most of the cars........ I dont think it has the show cars in the pic though

Its not that nobody knew how, there were about 20 cars in that caravan. There was one car stopped by police(for a loud exhaust) and steady traffic. I believe that would be a circumstance issue, not a knowledge issue.

I was the car pulled over for loud exhaust therefore rode in a caravan by myself. I passed each mini-caravan and that was determinted by the speed each group wanted to travel. I was the only one alone so to me there might not have been one large caravan but there several mini-caravans and it looked so good to see them each time I caught up to a new group of cars.

you 'heard' we didn't know how? from whom. second hand criticism is always so helpful - not.

I don't think the group planned to drive like it was a friggin funeral procession.

In an Ideal situation I agree a caravan would look like a parade. In the real world it is often abit more difficult without blocking traffic, speeding or just stopping in the middle of the road to regroup. It would be great if the drivers not involved (traffic) would be more curtious but as of late in Florida people dont even pull over for emergency vehicles! Not sure of the #'s but it was a very nice show, good representation of rotary powered vehicles, food was good/free and there was only one guy that thought everyone present should listen to his music and stop having normal conversations. Did anyone notice that even the officers that showed up we having a good time, very cool. Many thanks to the FLRX-8 club for the hard work getting it all together and I look foward to the next event.

I'm not going to lose any sleep over whether or not anyone feels the attendees knew how to "properly drive in a caravan." Criticizing another groups event isn't very christian-like. MAYBE THAT'S WHY HE WASN'T EMAILED AND ASKED FOR HIS OPINION.


preachers.....who needs them?

Raz...come on now...calling himself or using the nickname "peacher" does not make him one. Nor am I saying he aint...???

I understand what he is trying to say but disagree that we didn't know how to, simply put some people like driving faster than others and there was no compromise on the matter.

I think the purpose is to stick together as much as possible, but It didn't bother me to drive alone up there. Me and Rhwab had our own 2 car caravan (lol) going so that was fine.

Next time I wont be doing the caravan thing because I don't drive as fast as some of the members but I'm not mad about it or anything.

Getting there safe is what matters and having a good time once we are there.

Razpewton

Yer right.....silly me!

Mantis

So, with that discussion definately over discussed.....what did you guys think about the event itself?

Razpewton

I thought it ROCKED! Beautiful day, great people, bad *** cars and good times.

rx8wannahave

The food was very tasty. The people were friendly. The prizes were great (dang girl that took the book I wanted...lol). The weather worked with us and there were alot of 8 turnout so it was pretty good.

Heck...they even fixed a scratch (or what ever it was) I had on my 8 so it was a win win for me.

It could have been better (what can't be) but it was pretty fun and I'm glad I went.
