Exclamation Hampton Roads RX-8 Club

I was thinking of putting together a RX-8 Club for 8 owners. A Hampton Roads Rotary Club already exists, but it seems as if its members are mostly 7 owners. No reason why the 8 cannot play with them, but I was thinking an 8 club so we 8 owners can hang, cruise and talk 8's.
I am one of the owners of Awful Arthur's in Virginia Beach. http://www.awfuls.com/ We could meet there and I can offer a 10% discount off all food & drink to the RX-8 members.
If this sounds like something any 8 owners in the Hampton Roads area might be interested in let me know. I will investigate further about a Club website, message board and calendar if there are enough 8 interested.

Thanks~

Sounds good! It'd be great to have some group get togethers & photo ops a couple times a year. My kid's schedules precludes any regular meets for me.

BTW, I like the logo!

OK well I've registered a name for the club http://hr8c.com and have started to build the shell of the site. I am actually off the next (2) days so I will try to make some headway on it. If at all possible please try to visit the site a few times a day and send feedback. I will create an email account for the site "info @ hr8c.com".

I'm in. I'm surprised there haven't been more responses. There are a couple of people on this forum that are from the area. Guess they just haven't found this thread yet.

hey vice grip. I don't have a rear wing or a front and rear rotary accent. I looked at my profile and it says the same. I don't want to get bitched at for claiming I have stuff I don't. I'm not pissed or anything. Just want to keep the facts straight. Thanks

Np bro... I shall fix it this evening! With No info from you I only assume and guess what should be done. All with the idea I will need to re-edit. If you noticed, you were just added to the members area and I have not built your user profile... just for that reason.

Thanks! I live a few miles down the road from Dynamic Audio (near the Court House) so the tint shop I thought I knew of... Google helps track down the rest! Tint looks good... How much was it... And can they do a sunburst fade?

$149. They're a pretty basic shop. I'd seen another yellow 8 (lady who works up at the Haygood skate rink) and they'd done a nice job for her. If you want to pick and choose brands/type/styles, I'd look elsewhere.

We had the Corvette fill in for you. The driver was a guy, though.

LOL... On the Fill-in!
I was thinking that on the next meet, we should all cruise out to me favorite shooting spot for some group shots and individual owner w/ 8 shots. I need some more photos to spice up the site.
