Thought I'd introduce myself and what I do

So I just got the RX-8 yesterday, so I haven't been able to get a hold of a camera to take some photos, but I think I'll take some time to let you guys have a look at where I came from.
Her name is Lucille, and I parted with her yesterday- the past 3 years with her were fun, but I thought it was time to move on...



And the last photos before she was traded (traitor?) in:


She kinda did it all- raced, commuted, moved to college, rallied, had hellishly good times in the snow, but when it all boiled down, it was still an econobox with a powerful engine (and suspension that handled fairly awesome once I tinkered with it)

Video of the last races-

So a sad couple of minutes when i started her up for the last time, but I've kinda forgot about her now haha

A ha! another convert from awd. So what made you leave the turbocharged AWD community? I've had DSM's for my past 3 cars.

Well, I just thought it was time to move on from All wheel to rear wheel- plus I wanted a car that was designed to be a sports car, not a family car gone wrong (or right as it were) so I cleared out the warranty on the Scooby and then jumped ship so someone else can take over the car
