saw three 8's today, first was a blue 8 headed north on 91, mass plates. the other was a blue 8 headed south bound on 91, passed the other 8 infront of me.

then saw a red 8 on my way through granby.

Hey.... happen to know where Knollwood apartments are? There's a guy there that has an 8 but I'm not sure if he's on this... I live in Cromwell.

Not sure of many meets in CT but there is a meet tomorrow at Bear Mountain in NY... there's a thread on it in the NE RX-8 forum.

Would you believe I was the only Mazda to show up at the C3 car show this weekend at CCSU? I was hoping to see at least one other rotary...

If someone were to arrange a small meet (at Dunkin' Donuts on 150, for instance), I'd go hang out for a while...

We should have a meet like once a week or every other week or something. I was at the bear mountain meet this weekend and didn't even know there was a car show at ccsu. Is there anyone getting together this weekend?

I saw a winning blue on 395 north yesterday and I saw a red 8 at a company called Enthone in orange

Yeah C3 needs to work on their advertising... I just happened to see a flier posted in the student center.

I'd be interested in local monthly mini-meets... any suggestions on locations?

there is the go carts track in wallingford which I think everyone would have a lot of fun if they wanted to do that or if there is a cool place to go with some nice roads I don't really care I would drive an hour or so to have a meet hell I drove all the way to bear mountain lol.....I think it would be fair for everyone if we kept it relatively close to the middle of the state because people from both sides of the state would be able to come and wont have to drive to far.

I think it would be cool to get rhode island, mass, Ct, NH, together for a big meet in maybe springfield like at uno chicago grill before the snow starts to fall unless there is a better place.

if we do the mini-meets, i say we do it in different areas of the state. i'd say stamford (which i know they already have), new haven, etc. just to make sure no one is having to drive long distances all the time.

I do; but I live in the South-western corner of Connecticut, and work in Northern NJ, so I seem to be well off the beaten path of most of the folks in this topic; but I follow it all the same. I hope to catch up with some of you sooner or later.

Yeah I look at it because I'm subscribed to it... same thing where no one's spotted me although I haven't driven it all week so I guess that's fair.

Saw a WB yesterday AM around 6:50 and they were headed South on Rt. 9 around the 25-26 exit area. I think I saw Chris (cquinn) in Cromwell around 5:20 pm. If it wasn't him, it was a different BB.

Saw a BB this morning around 10 am headed SB on 9 between exits 30 and 29. Saw a BB in Canton yesterday afternoon around 4:45?, they were headed West away from the 177 light and saw them across from the Chevy dealer near the Dowd Ave light.
