Green, Touring Package 6spd.

Yeah if you want to go riding let me know. Send me a PM or something and we can get together.

 

Sanguine - I usually drive on the 101, I-10, and the 202.

Since we have what is probably the worste commute in the valley coming in on the 101 there is plenty of time to check out the vehicles around you!

 

Sunstroke....

You may have seen my wife driving as she is on the 101 about 4 or 5 times a week. Agreed that we definately have the worst commute....sheesh

 

My wife and I would love to join the drive on the 29th. Will PM Tim for the details. Thanks

 

OK guys,

This is shaping up to be a great drive on the 29th. So far I have commitments from several RCCAZ members plus at least two black RX-8s and one red 8. Urchin... not sure what color your ride is, but let's see if we can't get a Blue, Yellow and Sunlight Silver participant. I think Vivid will have the Gunmetal covered. Let me know via PM if you want to go by providing me with your normal name and email address.

Looking forward to a great drive!!

Tim

 

Sorry, mine is another black one. Tim, hope you got my PM.

 

No need to apologize. Black is awesome!! Just trying to get a feel for everyone involved with this thread. My ride is a yellow '93 R1. Looking forward to meeting you and everyone else on the 29th!

 

Wow....going to be three black RX8's at the same drive...kinda cool actually....

 

I purchased a velocity red 8, 6MT, SP, AP, Spoiler at the beginning of December. Had a chance to run with the RCCAZ folks over the Christmas break and look forward to the Drive on the 29th. Sounds like a great time. First chance to meet other 8 drivers, I'm located in the South Chandler area but drive up to the airport most days for work.

 

We'll see you all here on Sunday. I just hope we don't do Mexican for lunch. I have a sissy stomach.

 

I guess that rules out Seranno's....darn. See you sunday.

 

What type radar detectors do the cops use in the PHX area? Anyone use laser?

 

Good question...I'm not really sure honestly.

 

For those of you who didn't get my email this afternoon (Thursday), here are the latest details. Hope everyone can make it. Looking forward to meeting more rotary enthusiasts!!!

Hey everyone,
Sorry for being silent this week on our planned drive this coming Sunday, February 29th (Leap Day) to Tortilla Flats! I just finished up a huge proposal effort here at work that has totally consumed my time. However, it officially shipped today, so it's time to take the FD for a spin! Hope you can make it out for February "To the Flats and Back" drive. We'll be meeting around 11 a.m. at Vivid Racing 1745 S Holbrook Ln Tempe, AZ 85281 (480) 966-3040. Following our drive to the 'Flats' we'll be wrapping up the event around 2 p.m. at Nello's Pizza, 2950 S Alma School Rd MESA, AZ 85210-4035. In addition to great sights, we'll also be welcoming a few new RX-8 owners to join us for the event. Looking forward to seeing you there!

Tim

P.S.: I will probably be out of the office tomorrow. If you need to reach me between now and Sunday PM me or send email to teull@***.net

 

Thanx Tim!! I'll see you there.

 

Looks like I'll miss the drive, but wanted to post here since I just bought my RX8 1-1/2 weeks ago. Mine's sunlight silver with a spoiler. I live in Mesa - not too many RX8s around me since most of my neighbors are older than God.

Of course, the only other RX8 I've seen on the road so far was the exact same! As it roared past me on the 101 this past Thursday!

 

Just picked up my Silver 6 speed on friday night.

It goes along w/ my 93 FD in the garage.

I'll be there Sunday!

 

RXAnna & AZ_Lynx,

Welcome and Congratulations on your new cars!! RXAnna, too bad you cant make sunday. Maybe see you on another sunday drive. AZ Lynx. See you iSunday.

 

All I can say is WOW....

Thanks to everyone who made it out yesterday for our "To the Flats and Back" drive. For those of you who made it I think you'll agree that it was a great time. The weather was perfect and the drive is flat out one of the best in the Phoenix area. We had at least one of every RX-7 generation in attendance along with 7 RX-8s. Huff and the guys from Vividracing provided the launch point and door prizes at the end of the event, not to mention a very nice Evolution VII and a highly modded WRX that joined in the fun. It was impressive looking in my rear-view mirror on the highway and seeing a line of cars more than 100 yards long. Impressive... and a great way to spend a perfect Sunday afternoon in Arizona. I'll post pics in the next day or so and will copy everyone on the link!

Can't wait to do it again!!!

 

Tim & RCCAZ,

The drive on sunday was a blast! Thanx for getting it together so we could all have some serious fun. Unfortunately my camera died so no pictures but I can't wait to see the pics you guys took. I can't wait till the next drive.

Jesse

 

When is the next meet I'd love to show up and hang with you guys.

Are people still meeting at Scottsdale Pavillion?

 

Next time I'm going to go for a drive I'll post it here...as I'm sure the RCCAZ guys will too.

BTW...anyone who went on the sunday 'tortilla flats run' post your pictures!!!

 

I live in North Central Phoenix and work downtown. I see two other RX8s regularly - a red one near Dunlap and 7th Ave and a silver near Glendale or Bethany Home and 7th St.

 

Everyone,

Thanks again for making last Sunday a very memorable day. The weather was spectacular and the drive was incredible. Thanks again to everyone from Vivid Racing for providing a starting point and door prizes. I've posted a few pics at the following link with more shots to come early next week.

Tim
