ahh im soooo mad!

 

Damn I didn't know me and my car was that good looking

 

AWSOME Pictures guys! I had a great time! Wonderful turnout...
We should do it again very soon. Hopefully we will continue with our "california Winter"

Someone should post a link to the mulmedia forum so everyone can see how much fun we had and be very very jelous!

 

Thanks guys, it was sure a fun day especially after I got in the groove of things. Pictures look great everyone. I am in the process of sorting mine and resizing them, and then I have to post over Dial-up so it may take a while. My neighbor moved out so I have no high speed conection right now.

P.S. The few of us that went straight through Dear Creek, wasnt that pretty crazy, especially the down hill part. It was basically a one lane and then a tight two lane road with many blinds corners. What if someone was coming up similar to us, or maybe I am missing something? @*%# it was fun though, everything in the back of my trunk was like a tossed salad after today. Didnt really notice it until I was on my feet in home town but I was pretty happy to make back alive. Not to scare new guys for next time, I had a blast but it is some serious driving. Glad everyone was safe.

 

Yes I agree as far as the link, a video would be a good example so they can feel the runs as well. Do it again yes for sure, but man that was a lot of gas I used today, luckly the Shell had 91 for $2.68 what a bargin!!

 

next time you guys go to a meet out in malibu, i'll ask for the day off weeks in advance so i can go.....again, weather permitting of course

 

damn it ............. looks like i missed a good one

 

Yeah, turned out to be a pretty long day but it was totally worth it.

Total milage for me: 228 miles
Filled up @ Shell for $2.66

OH, and I even averaged 17.6 mpg on today's trip!!

 

Hey Everyone,

Thanks for showing up, sharing the day, and for posting the pictures so fast! I had a blast, and enjoyed meeting you all. I'm still a newbie, so this is probably the hardest I've driven my 8 thus far- but well worth it. (Finally rolled over from 925 miles to 1025 today too... Woooot!) Wanted to post the picts I took right away too- but, couldn't find my darn usb cable. (Prolly left it at the office.) So, I'll post them tomorrow night for sure.

Hope to see everyone again at the next cruise!

Yah, that one lane road was exciting last time, because I was following (not leading). I found out 1st hand the perils of leading on a one lane road. Came around a blind corner thinking nothing of it and came face to face with a very large brown F150 with people standing in the back. He was driving rather fast towards me, right in the middle of the road. I did my best to stop and pull to the right, but the road was covered in a light dust/mud, and recall that the right side of this road is gone...so it made for an interesting stop.

This happened two more times, but I was driving very slow at this point...not wanting a repeat of the first scare. I would definately say that this road leads to a couple of excellent drives, but is definately A SLOW CRUISE MUST next time. (I know, I know, Dan you told me....now I'll listen ).

 

Thanks everyone I had a blast @ my first rx-8 meet in malibu cant wait to do it again. Everyone was great the view was cool I had a great run around the canyon, this is a must do event if this is your first time. If your not scared to push your car to its limited go for it you will have fun..

 

I want to say that I was really impressed with your driving...you stayed with me the entire time. Made it a lot easier on me knowing that you were right behind me each time I looked.

 

It was my first time too and I have to say, that was the most bitchin drive I've taken my car on. I can't wait until the next one!

 

So I am still working on posting my pictures, but I had a few questions before that. Did anybody get any pictures of the Lambo coutuch? or Fareri F1. I was also wondering if great handleing cars like the 8 and the Elise go up i teh hills why didn't we see and Evo's or STI's not to mention the other model Elises?

 

we never see evo's or subaru's. at least i haven't. saw and heard a very fast and very loud corvette. wait i forgot saw a few wrx's on the flat land near pch...

 

any one have any good suggestions to avatars?
-100x100 pixels
-size?
-filetype?

 

Lesper, just for you man...

I wasn't able to grab my camera fast enough to get any pictures of the Lambo though.

I'm really really hoping that X-ped had the camera going and might have gotten the thing on film...

 

Hey guys, what a great turn out yesterday. Hope to do it very soon, say end of november or early december before I leave for Japan. I didn't have the video cam in hand when the F40 passed which sucks but oh well. I prob won't get done with the compilation video till end of november, but if I have time I'll make a quick video of this meet. I'm just so busy with school work plus I have to make a video for school project and my friends sponsorship for freestyle motocross. Anyways hope the next meet will bring as many people.

 

is it me, or does that second pic of the Ferrari look like a fricken Barbie car. It looks like a toy. Maybe it is the coloring on the red, or maybe it is just that rediculous wing. Anyways....it was a cool car, and did I say, loud.

 

I alwasy do Jpeg. I have Flash and converty the files in their...it saves a lot on file size.

 

hrm.. i just realize something after looking through pics... it might be a great idea to photoshop out all the license plates... seeing as we had ahem.... well you all know what happened...

 

OK It is my turn now, I tryed toget what you guys didn't already post so here it goes. The Yellow and the other Elise are in La Verne before I left, I didint have time to snap the NSX or the Cadalic Corvette.

 

few more

 

I got everyones screen name but i could not remember their real name

 

Hey Gang... Here are some more photos...
