Yeah, this came together quite quickly, which is why the route planning was a bit average, lol.
Hopefully give everyone two weeks notice of the next effort. However, doubt much will happen between now and the Nats.

Hi revolver. Was on the cruise with you yesterday. Anyway,I forgot to ask where you got your shortshifter kit from and how much it cost(i want to get one)? And also,you were talking to Tuan about fitting his car in somewhere.Do you have some affiliation with a workshop or something? Thanks again for organising the cruise.Ps-I was scared to that someone might die on those semi-slick roads and overtaking moves with the sunday drivers etc.Track days are always good for going for going all out(as I'm sure you know!).Was good to give it a little blip here and there for a cleanout(even with a vw there that seemed to have all the rx8's covered!)

I was talking to Tuan about whether there were still spots at the Nationals - not to get work done. I'm not affiliated with anyone for that purpose, or at all for that matter.
Everyone has their own comfort level on how hard they drive during cruises. I agree the track is where you should go if you really want to push hard but the odd bit of well-judged exhuberance is okay in my book.
And yes, you'll find it hard to get too far in front of a certain red VW.

I just installed Tein Superstreet coilover on the car on Friday and was hoping to take the car out for a cruise.

I was scary fast at exams too - hey you either know it or you don't. It was pretty rare for me to still be there for the last hour.
And the shocked looks on your friends' faces when you get up to go early is always fun, hahaha...

haha!. just installed the rx8 logo onto my break light!. ROFL
easier then i expected, all i did was trace it onto the overhead projector paper, colour in the outside, then shuv it in.
although, i did think that it wouldnt show if the brakes wernt activated.. ahh wells, guess it'll do

theres different ways to install it, one so it shows all the time and the other to make it show only when you use the brakes. I think you need to put it on the other side of the red reflector or something like that (i havnt done this myself)
