I'll be there giving ride alongs in my RX-8 race car (black and gray). See you there and sign up for a ride along if you want!

 

That is awesome to hear Magnus!

3 days to go guys!
Please check our facebook page for latest updates and happenings!
See you all there!!!

 

facebook??

 

almost....there....

 

when are you guys getting there & for how long?

 

rev: the majority of us are going to be in the show so we're gonna be there around 7:30ish (God willing).

according to the schedule planner, the awards aren't given out until 3 or something - which i'm sure a bunch of us are gonna be staying to watch....

5pm is when the teardown begins tho...

 

I'm planning on getting there before 8 am. Maybe 7:30 - 7:45 depending on traffic.
staying till about 3:30 or 4 which is when they hand out awards and such. I'm hoping at least 1 RX-8 wins something.

and surrounding company and just chilled out for the day.

 

I have a few on facebook. i will try and post them. Detrich posted a few on FB as well.

 

Can you add my FB? email boyna13@yahoo.com

 

pics or at least a review/synopsis i was otherwise engaged on saturday

 

Here are some picture of the event (the ride along with a pro driver and the staging are for the show cars).

The race cars are corvettes, 911 and a panoz

 

The event was pretty funny but not all that exciting. $10 to get in but then the ride along were free which made it totally worth it. We got to do two different rides with 3 laps each ride. There were venders and if you wanted you could track or autocross your car that day as well. NGO won the best RX-8. There were even raffles with some good prizes, but this was nothing like SS but it could deffinitly get better with more participation!

My first driver was in a rx-8 with suspension and exhaust and stripped down a little. He must have gone 100+ down the straight, oh and he had race tires, there were great in the twisties. My second driver was a 2nd Gen rx-7 and the guy was not use to the track so he did not go as fast.

 

It is local and cheap so I would deffinitly go again

 

Sephy took some pics but will be doing some editing so it may take a lil' while

i know the mocc guys were out with their cameras - i'll probably troll their forum for pics later

 

It sounds like I gave you your first ride along. Glad you enjoyed it. Our speed exiting the Roval was about 135mph. Buttonwillow and other twistier tracks are a lot more fun in an RX-8.
