Bellagio on a Friday night with City Center going up next door???? I think I will pass - there will be another time I'm sure. Have you started the Calendar yet? You only have three more months.

Well I don't know about that. I took an entire Saturday and drove to every tire place I could find. Now if you just want any tire then yes there are cheep places but if you want a quality tire such as BF Goodrich G-Force then Discount gave me the best price even better than Tire Rack and Cosco.

Jason stopped by my office today. He's working in outdoor sales at Bearing, Belt, Chain. As soon as soccer season is over he will become more active. He found Flips business card and said he had a good laugh.

Hey guys, I just moved to Vegas with my 8. I heard there's a big RX8 scene here. You guys meet up often?

On another note, where does everyone go to get their 8 serviced around here?

Well he does kinda. The housing market took a dump and since his insurance business was based upon insuraning the home builders, he ended up with a problem. Still has the business just not as profitable as before.

Welcome to Vegas.......Welcome to our little group
We used to meet up quite often but in seems lately that everyones schedule is screwed up and we can't get together. Keep your eyes on this thread for announcements of meets.

I'll let others talk to you about service as I am not welcome at the service location due to my mods.

Welcome... what part of town are you in? Me and a few others take our 8's to People's Mazda in Centennial Hills... ask for Peter (Service Rep) and request Dion to work on it.

It's an 04 with 15k miles. I used one of those error reader things (forgot what they're called) at auto zone and it said I had a small leak...I disconnected the battery to see if it would come back and it did so looks like I gotta take it in.
