I live on the East side of Lincolnwood but have often din at the Hooters you mentioned for lunch. It always seems to have a full lot, I guess it is the great wings.

Just wondering who in the Chicagoland area has replaced the OEM exhaust - I'm starting to look at that and wouldn't mind hearing some in person and getting opinions - talked with RSD about the Racing Beat, and also like the Mazdaspeed sound (at least in the low-res video clip)...any thoughts? Don't want something too loud, but wouldn't mind something with a bit more growl...

I have the JIC (non titanium) and am a huge fan of it. One of these times I get to a meet I will let you hear it.

"It's...a-small-world...afff-ter-all"

Ya just can't hide when you're driving an *8*.

So I'm crusing around tonight, going nowhere in particular. I spot an taco place near Lincoln and Montrose, realize I haven't had dinner, and look for a parking spot. As I'm locking my car and walking toward the restaurant, some guy yells over to me, "Hey...is that a Shinka?"

Turns out to be sakura968...and we had never met each other before!

We talked a bit about RX-8Club.com...and RedSheDevil, and local meets. I haven't been to one yet, but will check the Meets thread and try to make the next one.

Nice meeting you, sakura. Oh, and...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DUDE!!

The tacos were good! Very authentic Mexican place. But I still haven't gotten the hang of eating a taco without all of the stuff falling out of it.

oh well...

Hi, SheDev.

Yes...you did send me an invite. Not sure what is involved in joining EVOLV-Chicago, but you are welcome to send me a PM with details.

I'm planning to attend the GameWorks meet, Friday...June 9.

Hope to see you there!

PS. My *8* is a 2005 Shinka -- (black-cherry). Sat radio is set permanently (almost) to channel 72 (classic jazz). no, i haven't removed the ****...yet.

A'ight ... sending another PM ... all the instructions are in it to join. I just need some info to put you into the list, then I email the list to you so you can see everyone else's info too. The only info that is publically listed is screen name and car color on the first post.

w00t! Oh, and when you join, you get a wonderful little notice in the thread telling everyone how cool you are that you've come over to the dark side ok ok , just kiddin ...

It's not that bad. No one posted over the weekend which isn't unusual. We're still around here because this is the place to pick up the newbees.
