CT

Now this would be a good CT area meet http://www.myautoevents.com/pls/mae/...event_id=10399

Autocross in Stratford, $45 entry, even if we don't enter it'll still be a fun event.

i tried two months ago and there was zero interest. soloseven is on these boards and runs these. i'd be interested to attend and support anyone who does decide to run that day.

i actually autocross with cartct, its $25 for non-memebers and its realy fun, it'd be nice to see other rx8's since im usually the only rotary car there. It'd be nice to see what other people are running.

http://www.cartct.com/auto_schedule.shtml

while you guys are on that site you should check rules and everything, you will need a DOT approved helmet to go, and you need to pull everything out of your car, if you guys do go, i have a red rx8 u can park rite next to mine, we can take turns watching each others things, its really fun, but you guys do have to do your work assignments. It's fun, and you can see the miatas rule all....even us

I'm down for seeing other ppl with RX's but my only day off is Tuesday during the week. I'm down for Fridays and Sundays. I'd like to see some peoples cars and get some tips. I'm down so let me know. Also, I need somebody to drive my car and tell me why its driving the way it is. I'll show you guys/gals when we meet. You can probably tell me what i need to do. thanks.

Yea I started this thread hoping to get more active participation from the CT folks, but was really disheartened by how few came out. Even if you plan way ahead like a third of who say they will be there actually do it. With a few days notice I can do it, weekdays are better than weekends. But can't this week I have to wait for my new brake rotors to get in to drive the 8
