^^ ...and never see it again. You probably don't have a Nikon camera yourself, so what's the use of "borrowing it"?!

I'm getting my tires mounted today, I thought I could only get one mounted because, I only have one spare tire to put on in the meanwhile.. But, I took my brother's spare tire from his Mustang GT and try to put it on the 8, and come to find out it's a perfect fit! So, my 8 is part Ford right now..

Jedi54 is coming to Vegas in mid August with a small group of So Cal members. I am going to try and arrange a meet and a little drive. I'm hoping Gil can do a little magic for some reduced room rates and I thought we might do the Red Rock thing in the morning.
Any one interested?? Since they will be here Friday and Saturday everyone should be able to make it at least one day.

HEHEH.. I might, as long as I get it back in one piece and don't have a scratched lens. It's never been used before, so you might have to test it out and let me know how good it is. It's a 85mm 1:1.8 lens..

It says Nikon NIKKOR 85mm 1:1.8 (440053), it should fit.. It'll fit most cameras, I believe?! Does that help..?!

I got 3 wireless routers, so I pass.. As far as selling it in the classifieds, you'll probably just have your thread deleted because it's not car-related. If you can use it for the RX-8, and you can sell anything. If it's something that has no use for the RX-8, you can't sell it on here..

Yea I looked - I guess I am stuck with my rims unless something else pops up. With all those rims I was not impressed with any of them. Some are close to what I want but none take the cigar.

We have a lot of time before they come (the S0Cal group) but I would like a large group for the drive maybe 10 cars if we can do it. I am leaning toward Saturday morning (9 or 10 am) for the drive and then stop somewhere for a light brunch. I am open to suggestions.

Sounds like a plan, I will have my car back on the road, and I will be able to join you guys in the drive, instead of just sitting in the passenger seat.
