I work 2km away from D&B everyday! I really don't want to be around that area in my free time either. I'm from Scarborough, I would come out more if it's more central. But that's just me and I am just one member.

I do believe there is a strong divide between the ASIAN RX-8 owners and the non-asian RX-8 owners, as there doesn't seem to be a common activity that the two cultures like to share.

Eric, it's both I think. I want to hear TurboEight and R888 and Smokin La La's opinion?

These three seem to be like the only asians besides myself that actively and respond on this forum.

I'm asian too.

Dude you realize I'm Asian too, right? Isn't it regularly 10 bucks for the top of the line eco wash? I'm surpised you were able to deal with them, browns and chinese working together, MADNESS I say. Like Russel Peters said, browns just wanna hold onto as much as they can, and the ****** just want get as much as they can, lol. I do agree Sunoco has the best touchless wash, just hate their fuel. Burns out too fast in the 8, purely speculative observation thou. Need that Scangauge to prove my findings. There's a Shell gas station that was selling their top car washes for 2 bucks when they first opened last year. I bought a few for my dad's car, too bad they use a track, even thou they claim the news one are sided with plastic. I wouldn't bother washing it, for 10 bucks at least, its raining on Monday I think. You should just hit up the Coin wash they have on Major Mac and Bayview. 3 bucks and your good to go. They just opened a new one by my place, the first day I went, I see these punk kids with their whips. I hope it doesnt become an infestation.

The top of line wash is $11.99 + tax and add $2.00 if you don't fuel up. I never fill up at Sunoco, because I only use Shell 91 V-Power exclusively.

but I just give them $10 cash and the deal is done!
I've never seen an asian come out! what's the deal?

How many exams are there? This is for the risk assessment career field right? As in what Ben Stiller was doing in Along came Polly?

Well I'm asian and have been out for most of the meets. Just not to the ones you came out too, lol. Just waiting on reply from R888 and TurboEight if their coming out. We need a Turbo to herd away some of the rice cakes that populate hwy 7.

Also since I've never heard a turbo on an eight in real life. Also looking to forward to seeing Kris' new rims, I saw the thread he posted in, https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-multimedia-photo-gallery-6/who-said-you-couldnt-fit-19-x-10-rear-141685/ , thats just ridiculous, a can of pop, jebus.

9 in total. Yea it's basically risk stuff. Most people work in the insurance industry. I help set rates for auto insurance. Just sucks how the pass mark is subjective and that they set it to pass about 35-40% of people who write.

Do you have to do all the tests? I hear the more tests you do, along with experience, your looking at 6 figure plus salaries, is that dependent on the firm, or true all around? Tests are the suxors, lol. I had to do my MCATs last year, no summer life whatsoever, and I gotta also do my GREs this year, just in case.

you dont have to do all the tests. Because it does take a lot of study time to pass, people who start families usually stop writing.

yea if you have all 9 exams, you're pretty much guaranteed 6 figures

Ya, I've always looked into it, as a Plan B. Good luck man. Right now I'm banking on Med or Grad school, and my stocks, lol. Gotta stop stressing, redline a day not only keeps carbon away, but get rid of my stress too. Gotta love the 8. Wish they would release GT5 for the PS3, can't wait longer, that and Grid.

Havent got any updates on the last four, but hopefully the majority if not all of the list will come out. A turnout of 11 would be nice, we'll see. A good number to see 21 with, lol, j/k.
