Not being a drag car is an exuse for someone with a slow car lol...

There are plenty of superb handling cars that aren't as anemic as an RX8.. once you compare its lack of power to its decent handling it would still have a lacking overall score. Add in gas millage and blah blah blah and its definitely a car only for a specific niche.

I love my car, but its more for looks than performance.

Looking for some CF goodies and then next up is either nitrous or boost, maybe some suspension goodies as well..

I've had one of the fastest street cars in Sac/NorCal for a while ('92 TSI AWD Talon 10.2@142) I went to build a single digit drag car but kinda got distracted by the 8, and my job/GF taking all my spare time.

However the 8 is nice but too too slow. Worrying about RSXs and S2000s and 350Zs and the such is embarrassing..
what up TSimage lol. wish you were in socal so you could help me with my eclipse. it has a 6 bolt swap in it and a couple of other parts. i need help to tune it too. if your ever in socal let me know.

You're Se3P or somethin like that right.. I remember now, you use to have a RX8 too, did you sell it? If you still have any of the parts maybe we can switch some dsm parts for RX8 parts?

Edit: I just checked under your S/N lol.. duh

Sounds great to meet up in Sac. We could do spagetti Factory on Hazel and 50 - then hit up RPM on Bradshaw and 50. I'm in for a Saturday.

I think Sac would be the best place to meet up at. I'm not from Sac but I do go to school there. I just don't know a lot of places.

So far we have

BBQ somewhere
Cheesecake Factory (I heard tons of girls hang out here) thats a plus
Spagetti Factory w/RPM
Hooters, Sonic, In-Out (sounds like by the Truxel Natomas area)


What else do you guys think we should do?

Not feelin' the cheese cake factory. Not unless you plan on making eeeeearly reservations... By starting off simple I was reffering to doing something that is more meet and greet rather than meet and eat....

So you guys want to meet up on the 25th? How about the Natomas truxel area where the movies and hooters is at. They have a pretty big parking lot there with a bunch of open spaces and if people want to eat we can hit something up there. Let me know what you guys think. Maybe we should start a list to see who will show up. Put your name on the list if you can come. If there is a problem with the date or location lets find a new one.
