MazdaParts.com to sponser a drive in area!
Ok, I want to do this but i need help. We are in Santa Barbara as I hope you all know. kindaof in the middel of CA. and with some help I think we can make a nice day drive somewhere.. So whos in.. and where shall we go. ?

 

i'd check it out. around when are u planning this drive? before the end of summer?
maybe drive down here to socal/o.c. area and get a huge gathering/meet going on with a bbq and stuff :D

 

I think Thew meant to drive up to his area... in Santa Barbara. :P I'm game, irregardless of the crazy gas prices. Maybe head to Carmel, cruise through 17 mile drive..etc.

 

Hehe well i was thinking about taking my gf up to SB area during the labor day weekend.. know of any good place to stay there? :p

Haven't been up there since i graduated.. well dropped by a couple years ago but that was like 15 mins stop :P

 

what does it mean "sponsoring a drive"?

 

He's paying for food and gas! :P jk :D

 

Santa Barbara... Inn of the Spanish Garden. Nice little inn, very romantic... get a room upstairs so you can overlook stuff. Nice view of the pool and surrounding area. Rated #1 in the city... has free breakfast in the morning.

Inn of the Spanish Garden

Found my review of the place... here it was on Tripadvisor...



"Our room was #22, and it was an upstairs King Suite. Perfect view of the pool, very cozy, quiet, and the decor was just great. Bed was a +, comfy and clean. We were pleasantly surprised to see the bathroom to be very spacious and clean. In the morning, the complimentary breakfast was good (Cereal, grapefruit, egg/potatoe quiche, toast, bagels, juice, etc). Staff was very friendly and helpful, and parking was not a hassle."

And yes I drove my RX-8 there, parking was great

 

how about sponsoring a track event? just kidding, or how about organizing a track event dedicated for us RX8 owners. :]

 

track event yea!!!.. would love to.. but lets get a Drive up first..

And i dont care where we go.. , By sponsers ill buy dinner or lunch some where.. maybe coffie and donuts in the AM ?

I am game for just about anytime.

If you come far enough north you might be able to get some of the northern CA people to meet up with your drive. Maybe meet half way or something?

 

HEY! That's my sentimental side showing through... You know how it is... ALL RX-8 Male owners are closet sentimental guys.

 

How bout we all meat in Taft ? off the 5 drive over to 101, hit Solvang , San Marcos Pass then SB. At that Point after Lunch / Dinner we can all go back from SB to our prospective homes.

 

Bump!

 

SO Sad.. I am Shocked that i cant een get a response on this!!!!

Oh well I guess we wont sponser a drive..

Ill just do it with my local rx8ers here in town..
Sad Sad Sad.

 

i would wanna go... sigh

 

Yeah pretty sad turn out. I would go to for free gas I dont care about the food. I guess it would have helped if we knew a number that we needed with a sign up list. Maybe possible days, oh wel....?

 

Sorry... I would like to go but it's a little too far for me to go on a day drive.

 

How about something for us in LA?? I know we have a lot of guys who would go...

 

Yes, I am still trying to dig this up!!
Make some suggestions i am GAme..
I will Buy Gas for the Member that drives the farthest!!!..
And We will thorw in some other prizes to for Hotest Car, Hotest Driver! ( Females only ) ,
Best Mods, etc...
So start throwing up some ideas.. Santa Barbara is right in the Middle so it kinda of makes sense to meet here? But I want some ideas !!! Hell ill drive to S.D. or S.F. ..

 

Pay all my gas?? .........22hrs@3.5gal per hr ==approx $400 in gas

 

I actually wouldn't mind going as long as it fits into my schedule.

I'm gunna need to put miles down soon anyways.

 

What is the exact meeting location, will there be festivities, and how many people will be covered in the gas, what kind of possible dates are you looking at and how many people do me need to do this? (just some questions others might have before verifying)

 

haha 3.5 a gallon my foot .. and where I am talking about a tank of gas not a truck load .
