I hope the drug companies dont get hold of this. It will ruin everything.
I ran over a gator one time on a honda 450cc motorcycle while riding from paris island S.c. to my hometown of macon ga. Years ago! Scared the hell out of me.
cant even imagine hitting one with the 8---guess you could have some spagetti gator that night!

The RX-8 alone made me feel like I was 30 (that's like losing 25 years). You guys are killing me! Denny, look forward to seeing and riding with you today. I will bring a video camera and post a vid here. May go to Barber Motorsport Park tomorrow to watch and ride with TrackAddict and Phlash. Can't wait to see you at Road Atlanta.

Swoope, you gotta come up to Roebling Road again when Denny drives next season.

I used to have a RP supercat but I sold it right before I got the SC. If I new it was going to make such a difference w/ the SC, I would have kept it. I got rid of it because it wasn't worth only getting 2/3 hp out of it like I was n/a. Right now, i'm running the stock cat w/ Racing Beat exhaust. I'll probably buy another HF Cat after Xmas.

OSCD, it was a pleasure seeing you again today. Thanks for the rides and the entertainment at dinner. It's always a blast with the gang. I have video and will post as soon as I can get it edited.

The pull the car has at 45 mph in 5th gear was incredible. The lack of high RPM sound was also a pleasure. I think the fun now is in the lower RPM as apposed to what I'm familiar with... post 6k RPM. That means learning to drive the 8 all over again. After riding with you I got in my car and it just seemed to be sluggish.

You bastid! Now I have to start planning my strategy. Maybe by this time next year I will have one. I expect Will to be next in line with Wess close behind if he can scrape up the bucks.

There was a 10'er dead in the middle of the highway near my house, couldnt imagine hitting that beast in anything short of a tank, even a major 4wd would have damage of some kind. Id rather hit a big fat dear.

in the Marine Corps at the time---so it was pleasure? I had just returned from overseas and it was a temp duty station before i went tdy with the Dept of State in Jamaica . there about 6 mos.

Silver wasnt driving yall--car still has base map and we had 4 people in the car. if he could have been the driver much more would have been noticed! Plus we where on a 35mph road
Swoope you need this setup man. hands down.
how do yall share map's with the int x?
About the cat--if you dont mind doing a little work the stock cat can be modified and basically be a high performance one. You will not lose any weight though.
I wonder what would happen if i put my midpipe on with the base map? Sure is running rich now and getting only about 14-15 mpg on the interstate.
Had to watch my speed ---really easy to go faster than the law allows. 100mph is nothing in this car now.
Intercooler is impressive---just a little warm to the touch after a 100 mile 80mph drive.

Moon see pm.
