relax bro, Mikes car is badass and he's a cool guy. We actually spoke for a while during 7 stock and I even kicked it with him the majority of the time last 7 stock. What people are trying to say is that there were other cars out there that had twice the amount of work done to their cars but came up a little short. For example, sure Danny won last year but this year he came back with an entirely different turbo piping setup not to mention a new exhaust and a tucked engine bay. 95% of the work was done by his own hands. Thats dedication and people like danny, jorge, tim could give a f#ck about being featured by all those hype blogs. I give Mike props for having insaneheel fitment but many of you nuthuggers need to understand that hellaflush illest and all those other hype blogs are not the final word.

just sayin bro aint nobody mad its just funny what people say, hahaha, yeah them turbo rx8s were tight but i mean just cause u got turbo means thats twice the amount of work? mikes car has a maxed out n/a does that mean just cause its n/a he would autmatically get dismissed from the conversation. i agree that them sites dont have the final word but nor do the people on this forum.

I'd have to say other roataries look down on 8 owners because the rx8 takes much less "passion" to own than, say, a modified FB. Either way, it just seems some owners don't wish the spend the time or money to really do things right, but choose cheaper routes or alternatives.

There definitely were a handful of amazing 8's out there, that can't be denied :icon_tup: How were the courtyard 8's chosen? I don't know if I'd exactly consider the choices all to be on the same level, to put it nicely.

So many pictures around, I'm not going to bother posting mine. I wanted to take pics of the drive-aways like last year but didn't have the opportunity to, gf wanted to leave early :( Looking forward to next years event!

edit: Deedubb, "Mike's Cousin" doesn't take criticism of Mike's car too well, careful what you say. Mike, your car did look great! I'll end my semi-off topic posting now :lol2:

careful what I say? For stating the facts?

7 stock needs to judged based upon points. There also needs to be other categories for each chassis. Best engine bay, best paint, best wheels, etc etc. There was a year when of all people Razz won best rx8, how he won that year I still have yet to find out.

well then i shouldnt say maxed out he has no internal work nor a tune, but has every bolt on you can think of for a 8.

hey mr hyphy, enough with all the hella stuff already! If you havent already figured it out the majority of rx8club could care less about that style. "hella" flush is not what its all about. More than half you so you called hella flush guys didn't even know shyt about offsets 2-3 years ago and now you guys are so quick to call people out on their offsets. The world does not evolve around hellaflush illest stancenation and all those other hype blogs.:rolleyes:
