NC fayetteville/ft bragg area

bought my 8 in charleston SC a week and a half ago (my cousin works for palmetto jaguar that owns the mazda there, got it for invoice). just wondering if anybody else has one in the fayetteville/ft bragg area.

There are several here in town. Two people that I work with have 8's (both blue). I have seen silver, red and green in town as well. Assistant manager at Home Depot has a black one (purchased his the same night I did). I had a black but recently traded it.

So, the 8 is well represented in town...

I've got a blue 8 as well and am stationed at Bragg. I got mine in March. I've seen at least a half-dozen other 8's on post.

There are a ton of RX-8s around fayetteville. If you guys are interested, we could set up a fayetteville rx-8/rx-7 meet up

I have one but there is not a place that can tune it for you. Your best bet is Garry Lee at valley mazda. I also have a light weight flywheel installed. I am looking for some more 8's to hang out with. Just let me know.

Garry Lee is the only person there that has ever worked on my car. He is really good. He started when the RX-7 first came out. He is truly a rotary GOD.

if you want to go and zip around the great fayetteville area i'm in, it would be pretty cool to have about three or four of us spinning around in a line, in and out of traffic.

Are you going to the car show this weekend. I am going to be going with the slow joes guys because they know how to get there. But i am always game for driving with other 8's. Do you ever go to the fayettevill track.
