New Vancouver RX8 Club!
#78
If you want to get into autocrossing or check it out, join the UBC Sports Car Club (AKA West Coast Motorsports) forum:http://forum.ubcscc.com/
You are welcome to join for watching and to get ride alongs to see how it feels. I'm always at the events and there are 2-3 other 8s that come out from time to time. We also organize track days at mission and rally events.
I am good with meeting anywhere from Pitt Meadows (where autocross is) to Vancouver ... Burnaby might be a good central location for most people. (Time: Anytime between 5PM & 10PM)

At Metrotown it might be hard to find adjacent empty parking spots... How about Tim Hourton a few blocks away (6641 Kingsway) @ 6PM?

If anyone was lucky enough to see a white RX8 getting towed about an hour ago. That was mine!! So I won't be able to make it today.
Started up fine, throttle was a bit tentative and idle a bit low, but figured it might get better.... barely made it to work, could get zero power and my cat was GLOWING red. So I figure its clogged.
Have fun guys!

hey sorry guys couldn't make it something came up family stuff.....hopefully we get another one going with better weather out as well how was it? As I can see with nsidhu not too many people showed up which is unfortunate...
#95
Haha Nsidhu and I chilled for a bit. We should do a cruise next time tho. Maybe once the weather starts warming up a little more. I wouldn't mind meeting up and then cruising all together to one of Bentiacs auto-x events. that would be pretty sick.

Sorry I couldn't make it yesterday. I had to drive to the autocross pad at 7am and the RX8 didn't make it out the parking ...we should check the forecast next time. At that time highways were not plowed yet and anything other than studded tires were not practical.
Even my daily driver, a fwd, got stuck, so I had to put on chains just to get to the event and the chains got wrapped around my drive shaft... then I ended up co-driving with someone else... lots of sideways fun. I will come out next time... (or meet you at the event).
