22 and counting... this is going to be AWEOSOME as we take over the 405 fwy!

 

someone w/ a passenger willing to take along a video camera? hahaha

 

Someone good at video taping/ editing? Maybe someone can shoot a documentary video on the caravan and then the event, that would be sweet!!

 

If I can make it, I'll take a group pix of the owners with their rides... sadly I will not be in a Rotary this time around. If I can get a video camera on hand, I'll even tape the little cruise to Sevenstock.

 

cho can lead the event again! He led last year, I was 2nd, hahaha he knows OC freeways better than me..

 

^^^ I do.

Can't believe I'll be driving 20 miles out of my way just to end up 5 miles from my house again... aahhh, the things I do for you guys.

 

you owe it to use jedi, all the times you said you were going to the meet..hahaha. My father used to work at this facility, he was their IT guy for 10 years and I know that area pretty well, it's literaaly right off the 405. You think we should trail up the 405S for this one Jorge? I think it might be easier.

 

I think the 405 would be pretty fun to take over gain.

We could go:
605 S
405S
55N
5S

OR
Take the 405 all the way to the Spectrum and take streets from there...

 

hey guys. i was just at the macy's parking lot. haha. i'm over at browning mazda right now on their computer.

 

what the heck r u doing on their comp?

 

WTF?! You're starting to scare me bro....

 

yea what a freek...anyway, i think the 405 sounds good so we don't have to change freeways too much, not only that, it's literally right off the freeway..

 

^^ you're spoiling all my fun...

I wanna see 100 RX-8's all changing freeways at once...

 

Besides, taking the 5 south is treacherous.. the roads suck. At least the 405 way it's clear, lots of space, and the Rotaries can have their own lane.

 

I'll be honored to lead the caravan in my new ride.. I know it's not a Rotary, but I'm rotary at heart.

 

ahahahahahaha. cho's new ride!

 

get that toyota out of here!!!! ahhaa j/k, man cho, that looks good..

 

I'll meet up with you guys. I already put in my request at work to take oct.26-oct.30 off so hopefully I"ll get it. Driving all the way up from Seattle, WA but this is so going to be worth it.

alright! ryan is coming from very far away. haha

 

I believe there are caravans already coming from WA. So you won't be that bored... Thought my drive was bad...

 

Im coming early so I can visit my brother in San Diego, yes I will be bored. Do you guys think it will snow in the mountains? I don't think it will but Im worried that if it does i'll be SOL.

 

stock potenza's in the snow= recipe for disaster. =(

 

Just something I wanted to address that I've had on my mind. By the looks of things, this might become a packed event. Unlike mazda r&d facilities, there is no room to just park "around" at Mazda headquarters: see picture below (don't mind my own parking space =P )

So in order to even get "in" the event, we must leave for the event much earlier. It would be ashamed to have a caravan of almost 30 rx8's and half of us get denied at the gates, I honestly think that would suck. Last year when we left reguardless of how early we got there, we were the last to get in sevenstock, but there were plenty spots available in the alley way where most of us parked at. This year I would definetly like to have a good parking spot. I could honestly give a f#ck how early we go I just want to get in for sure. So for example, if the gates open up at 6am, I would like to arrive a few hours or so before, so that would make it 4:00-4:30am. Now before all of you locals start bitching at me, think of our nor cal bro's who are driving great distances just to meet us up. We must do this in order to get in the event. Let me know what you guys think...

 

Im still down, thats why Im leaving WA early. I think it's a good idea XDEE because hopefully we get good spots and it will give us time to talk to each other and take some pics.

 

and look at fabro! he's coming all the way from freeking WA!!! haha
