The Chicago owners have mostly moved to EVOLV-Chicago. You can click on the link in my sig to go there. There are a few members from Iowa but they have never organized.

There's two silver ones, a blue and a red one that I see often, plus 2 weeks ago saw a silver one on I80 near Princeton pulled over by 2 state troopers.

Suprised no one has seen me, I usuially stalk the qc on the Illinois side moline/Rock town and the like though i do get into iowa just not as often. I drive a black 2011. Ive seen a silver, blue, and red around town. Waved at the guy in the silver one a few times. How many of us are there? Its rare to see another 8 around the quad cities. We should come up with a meet or something...

Join up on Facebook! It's a little easier to plan meets and keep in touch.

Some people aren't on facebook, privacy concerns. Although it is convenient.

The Saint Louis Rx club is pretty active. I live on the Illinois side there. I do make occasional trips up to Pella or I-City though.

You can set privacy pretty strict. But that's alright, I do understand. Is there an organized rotary group down there at all? Or any type of club that you know of?

Would you make a trip to Iowa? Haha. That's the likely middle point for everything for the meet I'm trying to set up. Also ditto to you on my above response questions ^

Thanks guys!

Know of any other rotarys in the area? I will definitely keep you all posted on here. If you'd like, feel free to join up with MinnesotaRX8 on facebook through the tinyurl link in my signature. It's the easier way to keep up to date with things.

The Saint Louis group is pretty active when the weather is nice. We do some large 50ish car rotary cruises/BBQs twice a year and a few smaller meets too! We are having one on the 23rd of March I do believe.

Should the title of this thread be retitled Quad-Cities 8 owners Assemble?
