Id like to meet other rx8 drivers in ct see what you did with your 8 i seen about 3 in ct so im hoping theres more somewhere it would be nice to start a club (if there isnt one already)and have meets and maybe track days also itd be nice to hear your stories of surviving in the snow here unless you just garage it.

 

What part of CT are you in? I live in between Danielson and Willimantic, aka the Quiet Corner.

 

I live in terryville bristol thomaston area

 

Know of anyone else on here thats in ct maybe we can do a meet or something have a little track day somewhere thatd be cool

 

Live in Manchester

Check out CART (my first season in a while that I had to sit out due to wedding/house commitments), and also FCSCC

 

I couldnt find anything about CART have any more info on that?

 

Do you have a series 2 with a single outlet exhaust, feels like every time I go to Buffalo Wild Wings next to the Buckland Mall, I see that 8.

 

Connecticut Autocross & Rally Team » Your New England center for autocross and track events

Thats the club i run with. Great group of guys, usually a great turnout. We get to run at Mohegan, a lot over in Hartford, Thompson speedway.

That would be me . I live right around there.

 

Awesome, glad to know it's owned by someone who knows what they're doing.

 

Sounds great i may have to look into that sounds like itll be alot of fun

 

Haha glad that was the response and not 'what a heap of $!$'

 

Im in the hartford area as well, recently bought an '04.

 

I've run a couple of events with FCSCC this year. Good crew. Planning on going to this Sunday's event

 

How much are the fees to run with fcscc and cart and anything else i should know like other requirements i plan on doing atleast one track day when my rx8 is back to 1000%

 

It's $40 for the day. Idk what cart is

 

CART is $40 as well if iremember correctly. They just increased the price from $35. Then at the end of all timed runs, fun runs are 2 bucks

As far as requirements:

remove all plastic un-bolted items from the engine bay (ie engine cover)
remove all inside mats (you can remove them at the event and use them to sit on or something between runs)
Nothing lose in the car.
Helmet is a must, DOT approved, no visible damage

Bring some chairs,
some water
some sunscreen
loose change for some vendors if you feel like grabbing a snack or something

 

Once i get my 8 running back at peak ill deffinatly be attending atleast one event hopefully i can finish things up soon ill be looking forward to seeing other ct 8's
