It might be all the Mazda RND people that work in irvine/costa Mesa area... tons of RX-8s all over the place. Most of the employees there drive RX-8s.

awwqpwwa 10-25-2005 03:46 PM

oooh maybe...i just saw on the way home a silver rx8 with carbon trunk...

my rx8 is white with a ms front by the way...

Jedi54 10-25-2005 09:37 PM

I work in Tustin and you'll see me @ the Spectrum on Thursday nights.

rollerbldes 10-25-2005 09:38 PM

I'm in Irvine too. I see a blue RX-8 every morning heading down portola.

Razz1 10-26-2005 12:28 AM

You might see me, but you have to be pretty fast to catch a glimpse of my Red 8

awwqpwwa 10-26-2005 03:33 AM

nice....maybe when we collect enough people...we can meet up once or twice just for us people in this area i guess...id be nice

Mikelikes2drive 10-26-2005 04:46 AM

rollerbldes 10-26-2005 03:19 PM

SoCal RX club's next OC meet is at the In-n-Out in the Marketplace in Tustin on the first saturday of november at 11AM.

captain mercury 10-26-2005 03:22 PM

i work in costa mesa on Anton blvd. (comerica building) near South Coast Plaza.
I drive a titanium grey rx8 with the appearance package and rear wing spoiler. :aroused:
but i rarely see any other 8's around here! :Wconfused

TownDrunk 10-26-2005 03:41 PM

I drive my '8 into Irvine once a week or so. The rest of the days I carpool and leave my '8 at home.

I see the occasional '8, but not too many on a day to day basis (except a coworkers that I see every day).

Mine is yellow... currently bone stock. Soon I'll have the MS kit though so it might be easier to spot me.

Rx-A-Ho 10-26-2005 07:19 PM

I run through Irvine daily on my way to work. I see a few 8's around not many. Mine is Titanium Grey w/appearance package and the only exterior mod it clear coners. But I have the RB intake, Ram air and a RP High-flow cat. Still cannot figure out which cat-back I want to buy.

If someone organizes a meet I will come.

toca 10-26-2005 11:51 PM

I commute from Westminster to Aliso Viejo Mon-Fri 7am to 5pm 405 to 73.

fullsmoke 02-21-2007 10:26 AM

Sorry to bring this thread back to life...

I am new to the south OC community and would like to meet some fellow 8 drivers. I venture to Irvine often and figure I could organize a simple get together at the Yardhouse (or any other venue). Please PM me with your email and suggestions, maybe we can get something together!

FS

Jedi54 02-21-2007 11:51 AM

I'd be up for a meet / greet in the OC area. My office is really close to Irvine so maybe something at the Spectrum could work.

Fullsmoke: if you don't mind a bit of a drive, you should check out the San Bernardino meet. They get together once a month for a 'spirited' drive and it's usually worth the 45 minutes it takes to get there from OC.

fullsmoke 02-21-2007 04:42 PM

I know, I missed the last one! :( I wanted to go but I was stuck in LA w/o my 8. I will def try to make it next time.

Spectrum would be a great place to meet up. But, so far it would only be you and me, lol...

arnoldhead 02-22-2007 09:20 AM

i saw this thread and i was all happy for a sec, then i saw how old it is, haha

i wonder if those other d00ds still go to uci, zot zot

fullsmoke 02-22-2007 09:38 AM

Well, I was trying to get people to go to Irvine, but i guess i shouldn't have used an old thread...

FS

FE9000 02-22-2007 12:11 PM

I live/work in Irvine. I have a bone stock white 8 with clear corner and factory kit. Would definitely up for a meet here locally. Jedi, I sent you a PM a while ago did you get it?

peterisurhero 02-22-2007 12:17 PM

im up for it. i always visit my girlfriend at uci so going to the meet wont be aproblem:)

Jedi54 02-22-2007 12:17 PM

FE9000: to be honest, I don't remember getting your PM. Can you resend? (should be in your 'sent' folder) Sorry, I got soooo many PM's lately. :fruit:

fullsmoke 02-22-2007 02:24 PM

List so far:

fullsmoke
Jedi54
peterisurhero
fe9000


btw--any of you going on the cruise this sunday (25th of feb)?

FE9000 02-22-2007 03:42 PM

Jedi - Just re-sent the message. Thank you very much.

Jedi54 02-22-2007 03:45 PM

(replied to PM)

Phayen 02-22-2007 06:23 PM

Hey guys, I've seen a lot of 8's around too. There's a red one in the parking structure where I work. I drive an 05 white touring. Commute to macarthur and main everyday.

bruce_van 02-27-2007 01:25 PM

I'm down for a little get together. I'm in Laguna Hills.

Weekends are not good for me since I work. I'm up for a mini meet at the Spectrum and then a bite to eat one night.

peterisurhero 02-28-2007 02:13 AM

im down for it too!! anyone up for next week?? a weekday would be good:)

Shinka-05 02-28-2007 01:23 PM

so, a meet soon? I say ppl get the time and gas to go for a Palimar or Ortaga cruise.

Jedi54 02-28-2007 01:24 PM

Ortega = ticket. :(

TownDrunk 02-28-2007 02:03 PM

Depending on when, I'd be in.

peterisurhero 02-28-2007 05:49 PM

just do it!!!

newcastle 02-28-2007 07:41 PM

Was it going to be on a weekend or weekday?

TownDrunk 02-28-2007 08:13 PM

I just thought about something. Has anyone driven Ortega since the construction started?

Shinka-05 02-28-2007 08:46 PM

I didn't know Ortega had started construction. And any canyon in the greater LA area is going to have cops... just gotta be smarter than them, and watch signals from bikers.

fullsmoke 02-28-2007 11:35 PM

Newcastle: Depends on when is good for most people...

TownDrunk: I spoke to you about this thread at the Temecula cruise :)

I took Ortega to get back home that day--the construction closed off one lane for a few hundred feet. Other than that, it was smooth sailing--except for slow SUVs that refused to turnout.

I know I wanted to organize an Irvine meet but I've been swamped with things, esp preparing for an event with Toan/Kelly. This weekend and the following are really busy for me, but I'm pretty much free after--still interested in meeting up?

So far, the list:

fullsmoke
Jedi54
peterisurhero
fe9000
TownDrunk
bruce van
Shinka-05 (for a mountain run)

peterisurhero 03-01-2007 01:38 AM
