I am planning going to Calabogie for a full day of lapping the 28th of august or the 15th of september. It's not cheap but it's awesome. I will let you take a look at their web page.

as for drag racing and transmission, you are right and that is why i plan to go once a year maximum to limit the damages!

mainly because Mazda Chambly wasn't able to rebuilt it and they totally screwed up my previous one.

I am from the south shore as well, Brossard. So far I have installed a catless exhaust system, plus a few other little mods, sways are on their way, I'll be swapping them in spring along with some new tires and maybe new wheels. So is everyone having fun with their 8's this winter? I had a blast drifting the twisties in sauveur last weekend!

I am from Candiac. I'm struggling to keep my 8 alive this winter. I changed some sparks plugs few weeks ago and still need to replace the coils with a brand new kit from BHR.
I'm dropping the car at the dealer next week for tranny synch issue but I also believe the clutch pedal is to blame for the problem.
Anyone care to go for a ride? I'm really curious to get in stock rx8 to see and feel how it should drive like. Mine was bought with 60K and had plenty of little things to fix

Yes a nice run in the spring would be a lot of fun, it would be great to meet other rx owners, since I missed out on the meets you had in summer.
SpIcEz I know what you mean, my tires are serving their last season as well, it gets a little sketchy sometimes; will be going studded next winter!

I like your car, pretty much the same look as mine. Mine is VR with the fender flare. I am planning on changing the tail lights and the rear bumper for the 2009 ones. I have to repaire some minor scratches, but I really like the 2009 rear end, much better than the 2004-2008. How much did you paid for your mags ?

Yea I signed up on the clubrx forum but my account was never activated, I guess it's because of the maintenance that they're doing on the site right now, but I am definitely interested in participating and getting to meet some rotary fans from around here. Do you guys have regular club meets, when is the next meet? I am guessing some time in early spring, since no one drives their 7's in winter...

We have regular meets every friday from spring to fall and we have major events where we drive down somewhere fun, racing weekends and stuff.
Registering to the site should not be a problem anymore.

I went for the Mazdaspeed kit after seeing Jean-Pierre's rx-8 (one of the clubrxquebec memeber). In my opinion this is the best looking rx-8 i've seen so far.
