Allright, I talked to Andretti's, we can park along the back row of parking, right along Highway 9. There should be no problem with someone else parked there, and I will try to get there a few minutes early to stake out a claim.
I am all for a couple beers after karting, no problem there, but I do know that they strongly discourage knocking back a few before hand. We will not be the only ones there, there are plenty of kids, and other people there, that would not appreciate getting t-boned becasue one of us had a few heinekens beforehand. Lets keep it safe, and fun at the same time.
cheers

I'm still going to try to make it but the weather's warmer and there's a big car show from 10-3 tomarrow. Sucks cause I'm kinda obligated to go to the show....at least it's a sure bet the 8 will get some money out of it for some reason people tend to think it's a great lookin 'rare' car, lol. If everyone brought there 8s up here we'd probaly cause numberous wrecks just driving around town.

Sorry, we could not make it. I have to go to the hospital Thursday night. They ran some test and I have to have some more ran on Monday. Anyhow, we have a Landscape business and missed a whole days worth of work Friday so we had to make it up today. We will just have to wait and make it next time. I hope everyone had a blast. We can’t wait to see the photo.

sorry I couldn't join ya'll this afternoon. I had to go to the car show, which went really well, but know i hace a problem with the 8. It's spitting oil out of the rotor housing.....i think. What's this mean?? What the causes of this and what's the symptoms? I have no CEL or any hesitation? I'm guessing something happened and it's not going to be good.

Here are the shots from the parking lot. Expect to see some great shots from "Super". He showed me a few on his camera.
The third shot is a composite of two images. We could not get all the cars in one shot. I'm not 100% satisfied but maybe we can make it work on the website. Damn we have a lot of RX8's, and this isn't all of them!

those look great silver!
To all who were not there, you missed it. It was a blast, and it was good to see 15 cars show up, the most we have ever had. Our little group is growing.

Actually it wasn't me, it was my camera, L8APEX's ideas, Splan's trigger finger, a few others helping with set up (I can't remember em all) and I just helped. This was a group effort. Sorry you missed it rxeightr.
Keep an eye out... we have an ace photographer lurking amungst us. Look for good things from "super". I might even get to see my picture occasionally now!

Heres a few of the photos... I was a little disapointed at how they came out but I guess attempting to take photos of indoor action doesn't always end with the best results.

Super... those are really good shots for inside that dark building with motion. Also are you using Flash and a database to put your gallery together? I like the way you have done it. Makes me feel right at home, like I'm on my Mac!
Good job!
