I'm in Jacksonville, Swansboro to be exact but I'm stationed at Camp Lejeune. There's several RX8 owners around here but I'm not sure if they're enthusiasts or not. I make it to New Bern about 1-2/month. Let me know if you wanna' meet up somewhere. It'd be cool to head up to Raleigh too, I guess those guys are fairly active.

Heck, I don't know of anything but there's at least 6 RX-8 around here that I see on a daily basis. Wanna' organize a ride? If so I'd suggest that we plan one month ahead which would give enough time to contact these people. Then we could meet somewhere local (I suggest Hooters), go for a drive. Thoughts?

To heck with Raleighwood, lets drive to the beach one Sat night or Sunday and meet up with these guys somewhere Bobby! I'm sure we could get Nic and some others to meet us on the way there.

Maybe some of you would like to head up to Rawley this Sat...we have some guys coming up from j'ville and fayett-nam. Then maybe we could plan something all together. Just a thought.

I just ran up on this thread at the rx7 forums. A group of east side 7 owners looking to get something going as well.

This weekend we will be tearing up a road cource (some local country roads... keeping the speed reasonable of cource) and then heading to the grill.
