It was great metting up with you folks today! Attached are the pictures I took, such as they are.
Let's hope for better weather the next time. Looks like the next event is a track day at Mid-Ohio July 7, unless somebody wants to do something sooner!

Hi to all, I'm new to the site but a seasoned 8 owner. Looks like you folks get together often in the Columbus area. I'm from NW Indiana but I have the honor of spending next week in your territory (for work, that sucks). Since I will be driving my 8 I was wondering if you do any weekday evening drives? I will be staying in Hilliard.

I'd be up for a drive on Sunday if the weather is good.
AutoX was a blast. there were two Rx8 that seemed to do ok. They looked stock and they were wearing their stock Potenzas. There was a pretty sick modded C5 though.

Staying at the Homewood Suites. It's right next to TGIF's on Park Mill Run. I'll be there Sunday Night thru Thursday night. Been there a couple times but have never ventured to far away from the area. I have an '04 velocity red 6sp (of course) and a newly installed Racing Beat exhaust. I crunched the OEM exhaust backing into a parking space. $hit happens.

Piston, I'll make it a point to meet up with you as I want to check out the RB exhaust.
Let us know your number either by pm or whatever so we can get in touch.
Safe travels and we'll see you soon.

I'll be out of town on the 14th but a couple of us stopped by the SCCA autox on April 30. Were you racing that day? We saw a red a a silver RX8 racing but we didn't know the drivers.

Hey Success,
I'll PM you with a contact number. I see that Kellybrf either works or spends time at Lowes. Seems to me that Cheesebuger in Paradise is right next door? We could meet near there?? I should be available anytime after 6pm. Let me know what works for you.
PS. Saw a couple of 8's along with many more exotics today at the Tire rack in South bend. About a couple hundred enthusiasts getting ready for the "one lap of America" . Pretty cool!
