It's just track! Why get excited about something so relaxing? I never get excited about this kind of thing. I never get anxious to drive on a track with other fast cars and I never have a problem sleeping. So I just don't know what you are talking about!

You should REALLY be psyched after the Panoz event. That will get you going for sure. Then you will only have two weeks to go.

Well guys - work is killing me - and since I will be at Sebring and Rockingham in October, I can't go to this. You guys all have fun and be safe, and I will see you at Rockingham!

Yea - my car is pretty ugly compared to an RX8, but next to a EVO, Mustang, or C5 - that is a different story!

Pardon my brief interruption and hijacking of this thread...

There is a thread in the Lounge (I know some of you do not frequent that forum) and I thought the RX-8 could use your help: Vote for the RX-8

Forbs.com is having a vote on Showroom Showdown Japan's Supercars and the RX-8 is in a dead heat battle with the S2K and we need every vote we can get to beat out the Honda.

MoodDude, your 350Z is in a battle with the Infinity FX but you can vote for our car too.

You can only vote once from a computer so get creative with your coworkers computer or use others at home.

Maybe I should do both...before the Evo hits the streets as a 'street' car. I feel like I am retiring Sea Biscuit to a career of rodeo rides.

MoonDude - I luv your car and you know that. From the way the racing seats hug my posterior to the way it accelerates and brakes. It really will be too bad you can't make it to RRR. See you at the Rock. You will love the track there once you figure out you can really go fast on the banking.
You will not be happy now - it looks totally different now. Since my front bumper was damaged at Barber with that stupid GT3 crashing in front of me, I decided to replace it with an aftermarket front bumper. In the process I installed some other parts so it would match the new bumper.
