Watching those videos makes me want a miata.

That thing looks super stiff, very little leaning through the corners. Love the sound too.

Yeah, its fun. I cant wait for the new tires! wider is better!

soooo... when are you gona come out. Jason (the Absense) came out (and his dad).... they did pretty good for their first times. only one DNF (dad) and one spin (Jason). ........... (Spins are fun!)

the best part is Jason gets to run CSP with us in his N/A RX-7. its nice to get to race at the same time. If you come in the MR2, you get to run CSP as well. (yes, I know that you already know this)

ok I'll stop buggin about the races now.

additional race news...actually saw a red R3 with Michigan dealer plates on it. Talked to the guy shortley as he saw Casey and I looking the car over. He came over and was willing to tell us about the car, but when we informed him that we knew about the car already and that we were (previous) owners of RX8's, he sort of just walked away....walked away real fast when I asked if I could take it for a drive

The front bumper and side skirts are gorgeous. The side skirts remind me of the MS sides I had on mine. The fenders seem odd without that fender vent we are used to seeing. The rear bumper is very dissapointing, very plain. Doesn't seem to have good balance with the look and styling of the front and sides.

The Recaros were nice....the interior looked very similar to our cars. Forgot to look at the stearing wheel, but noticed it had the same radio display as our cars.

Not sure the car is worth the sticker price....but then again, I overpaid on my car, A LOT. But it was so cool to pay that price when I did, as I had one of the only RX8s in the area. I remember coming out to my car those first couple months, and I would always have a greasy forhead or finger prints on my driver's side window glass. Was bugged about it at the time, but now I look back on it and think it was great to have something so rare that people wanted to look in and see what was going on.

looks like we got close to lifting that inside tire Casey....wow. That was a really bad corner...but if you saw how Bills car went through that same section you would notice that his tires were flat on that section. I was noticing that on a couple other sections of the course as well. HIs car is just set up so perfectly.

No, I just assumed it was some odd manufacturer-thing.

I have 1 reserved at Gamestop. I didn't go to get the game though.
I'll probably wait a little while.
I just bought Rock Band 2 Saturday, today I bought a new Rock Band 2 drum set,
and I'm ordering the cymbals for the drum set in a couple of days.
