San Antonio/Selma @ the Forum

On Friday nights, a bunch of people bring their cars out to the Forum by Cici's pizza. I went out there on Friday and was the only 8. I was just wondering if any of you have heard of/gone to this?

It's every Friday from what people tell me. I'm probably planning on getting there around 6:30-7. That's assuming the weather is nice, of course.

No problem. There's always next time. AfroCreame (Blake + 1.5) and shawrf1 (Rob) showed up. We seemed to attract a lot of attention, I wonder why... A while after the other 2 guys left, I saw another black RX8 go by (was that you Blake?).

BTW: Thanks go out to Rob & Blake + family for showing up. It was great to finally meet you guys face to face!

Yea, it was great meeting you guys! There were alot more cars than I thought there would be. Everything from junkers to $90k Benzo's! I know one thing though, Mazda should send you a check for advertising! Everyone was stuck on your car..hah. Next time I'll drop the wife off at the mall and I'll head up there for a longer time. Yea that was us that drove by. I had to run to Best Buy for a new mouse, then pigged out at CiCi's. Did you get a good listen on Robs Greddy Exhaust? Looked sweet! Anyway, great meeting you guys and hopefully we can represtent the RX8 soon once more!

Good meeting you guys last night! I won't be able to make it next Fri. (10/3), but we definitely need a bigger Mazda/RX-anything contingent next time... where is everyone anyways??

Good luck with the baby, Blake!

A lot of people seem to like the blue (me included). The more people we can show the cars off too, the more of a group we get. We may even get enough to form some type of Alamo RX8 club...

Rob's exhaust did look pretty sweet! I heard it a little, but he wasn't revving very high when he left so I didn't get a good feel for how it sounded. From what I heard it sounded pretty good.

I'll put up a post for when I go up there again. Maybe DoobyWho will remember this time

I just put something on rx7forum, so we'll see how many people we get next time (in 2 Fridays sound good?) For Blake, I'm sure it all depends on when the baby decides to make an appearance

That's Spappy... (SPD = Sigma Phi Delta) not pappy.

We did get a LOT of attention. We should try showing up @ the cruisin' night @ 1604 & stone oak parkway to see how many 8's are up there.

No problem, just clearing it up... and no, it's not the same :p

I just found this...

• Friday: The Pig Stand @ 1508 Broadway, San Antonio
• Friday: Buck’s Landing @ N.W. Loop 1604 near Stone Oak, San Antonio.
• Friday: Biff Buzby's Burgers @ Oak Grove Center, San Antonio - 210-590-2040.
• Friday: Automania’s Cruise Night @ Universal City’s The Forum Shopping Center
• Friday: Culver’s Restaurant on Junction Hwy in Kerrville - 830-257-3727.
• Saturday: CiCi’s Pizza, @ junction of 410S & 87E, San Antonio.

Maybe we should try some of the other's one week. I've heard the one @ Buck's Landing is big.

Where on Stone Oak & 1604? Is this the Buck's Landing thing? I live in Stone Oak, and since I don't have my car yet, I could wash and wax the wife's Honda Odyssey!! Yeehaaa, look at those automatic doors!!!!
