Please be sure that you bring water, food (sandwich or what not will do - Depending what heat you work on, could be a chance you can go to McD's.), sunscreen, etc.


***PLEASE EMAIL ME BACK FOR HEAD COUNT*** I need to know the total number by end of this weekend, or perferbly before Next Wednesday July 23.

IF you want to participate on AutoX, goto:
http://www.gulfcoastregionscca.org And register early if it is your first time autocrossing at bronson field. It costs $20 for non-members, and $10 for members. I believe $15 if you're active-military.

They close registeration about 10, as well as Tech. I believe. I would suggest to get here early - that way you don't get into any confusions if it is your first time over here.

Eve Witts and I have been getting together a nice resturant. I have choosen Outback Steak House.. in Pensacola. We will be leaving after the autocross at some point. Depending if you want to stay after awards and such - but we shall know when the time comes - up to everyone. It costs about $20-$30 to eat there, and if you buy alcoholic drinks.

Keep in mind - this is a get together for all RX-7/rotary owners... and those who haven't met everyone in the Panhandle. So if you want to buy Alcohol, that is by your choice, but I will not be responible for your actions. Please be incontrol of your intake in the drinks.

If you have any questions about it, please contact me - and i'll be happy to reply back. I'd like to see as much out as possible



Christi
1988 Mazda RX-7 GXL - stock ... for now

Might I add, reguardless if you have an RX-7 or rotary powered vehicle, you may come anyway. Like to see more cars out there - mazda's anyway.

The autocross was great! We were rained on for quite a bit but it eventually dried up and the racing continued. Here are the results:

I'm STS 8...kinda disappointed w/ my results but hey, there was only 1.3 seconds difference from 1st to 6th place.

Loved the RX8 - I couldn't stop drooling!!!

Hey Guys,

The autocross was great! Chuck is talking about possibly giving the track a run in his new 8 during the next event.

It was nice to meet some of the drivers and forum members. I look forward to seeing the Panama City crew next month!

The Fort Walton Beach dealership finally received three RX-8s. The Velocity Red went to B-Nez and the Yellow and Silver are there for the looking. I have to say that the Winning Blue is still my favorite color!
:D

 

Hey! *waves*

It was nice meeting you guys that day. Will be great if you guys run your car this month I know that there'll be one more 3rd gen coming along next weekend from Panama City.

Let us know if you're able to make it - had made a new thread about it. Sorry to bump this one up

 

Is it on Sunday again? I know we'd like to come out there, but I probably won't be running 8, since we won't arrive early enough for registration and tech. I'd definitely like to hang out and watch, AND help work the course.

 

Yup. it's always on a (2nd ) sunday before the end of the month.

Besides OctoberFAST, since that's a two-day event. It is held the 18-19th
