Hey guys, sorry about the delay. I have been traveling throughout eastern oregon working on airports the last 3 weeks, and have had very little internet access. Its looking like i'll be done out here in about 2.5 weeks, but if rtrykng wants to throw one, go for it, otherwise, the first weekend im back, im all over throwing a big one. I just dont know how much longer this will last.

well I tell ya what. we can roll back and forth. I live in Woodburn. About half way between Salem and Portland. I just moved in so throwing one at my lil hoosie is a bit hard. Weekend of the 24th is perfect for me. This is Fathead's baby to start. I am just supporting lol. so if that weekend is ok with all, lets set a solid time and date.

I'd be up for a group drive starting around the Portland area.

I've had my 8 for 4 1/2 years and haven't met any other RX8 owners. Most the group drives I see posted are too far north or too far south to be any fun for me.

I havent put one together yet. Im still out on the road. There might have been one, they talked about one, but AS SOON as i get back, the drive will happen. Looking like 2 more weeks. Ill keep you all updated. I cant wait to shock the area with a gathering. I get asked all the time what my car is, wait till there are 20 of my car!

Thanks for trying to get this going. There are plenty of 8's in our area that should get together.

So what does next saturay, September 6th look like for you guys? Check this drive out and let me know what you think. It would start in Wilsonville at Frys Electronics, and ends up at a park with a view here outside of Newberg. Really fun, takes about an hour. Take a look, and let me know how many people like it and think they can make it!

i'm not sure how many of you own walkie talkies, but they are very useful to have during these drives. I've only been on 3 drives so far, 2 of which didn't have any walkies, and 1 which had them and they help a lot. Especially if we manage to get a high turn out in the Portland area meets
