Then around 6:30 whoever wants to, goes on a "spirited" cruise. If you have one of those radios, bring it (reminder to self....look for the radios!). I think they are going to Chicago Indoor Racing afterward, but I'm not sure. I've never been there, but have been curious
It's just a chance to meet, check out cars, talk, and go for a fun drive. YOUSHOULDGO! :D
edit: besides, I've only seen one Shinka when I was at the dealer...I'd like to see one in action!

5 RX-8s at one meet. I think that is the new record?
Should we move the Sept 15th meet since there is already one scheduled that week on the 12th?

I'll be at the 12th becuase I'll be downtown that week, but won't be able to do 2 in one week. Don't reschedule on my account, but I'd be more likely to hit Fuds if it were a different week.

I think we should probably keep it as is...even if it is two meets in one week. I've heard from numerous people that they can make one or the other and I'd hate to see someone not be able to.
Unless there's a big consensus not to meet, I say keep it as is IMHO. But then again .... I'm an idiot!
D:D
BTW, we didn't get to kart at CIR tonight (time issues) but it looks like a ton of fun! I hear they do it pretty regularly after the JGTCA meets...

First off thanks to all the RX-8 folks who came out today 
It was a blast seeing you guys and gals out with t3h awesome cars... next time come out to CIR afterwards too! It is a bit pricey but we can work on getting a group rate if we can get folks to commit prior!
Al:
We don't mind the info being shared amongst those we know, and we'd trust you'd only share with folks you didn't mind knowing, but please be careful posting on public boards (where non-registered users can view things) because we have an excellent ricer-free record and want to maintain it that being said, we missed you today man! You shoulda came out to crush us on the kart tracks! heheh

Zoom Zoom Live info posted
Zoom Zoom Live is coming to Arlington Park on October 29-30th. I've heard it's a lot of fun to zoom around in MNAO's cars :D
I registered for the 29th already. I want to zoom in a Miata ... tho may see if I can register for both a Miata and an 8. Driving the 8 gets you an instructor in the passenger seat ...
