See if Randy or Robin are available, they are both good with suspension. Depending on the day, I'm willing to lend a hand as well.

I miss driving my 8, but I hate commuting with it. I rarely drive my 8, got like 19k miles on it with almost 3yrs of ownership. When I did commute with it I ended up with a nice gas bill, and a bunck of rockchips on my bumper. Now I just drive it on my days off which is twice a week.

Mazdaspeed RX8 ver2 08-02-2006 02:19 AM

wow, im in college and its my commute car. you youngings you. haha

Moostafa29 08-02-2006 06:49 AM

I commute every day, but my commute is only 2 miles back and fourth from the BART station.

buwisit 08-02-2006 12:41 PM

i commute every day with my 8 to work and school which equate to gas every week $40. i wish i still have my gas mpg on my civic

anyone going to docs driving clinic this saturday?

odyss3y 08-02-2006 12:44 PM

I've got a decently short commute, 16 miles round trip. It should be halved soon but we'll see. I used to have a 50 mile commute, and when I had a g/f in Berkeley, that doubled it a few days a week. Needless to say in 2 years I had 90k miles on the WRX. Hopefully the RX-8 will get a bit milder usage. Anyone else have a motorcycle? :D

IZoomZoomI 08-03-2006 11:37 PM

Yeah my commute is 90 miles round trip on 101, which btw is being repaved, so my 8 isn't going near that freeway for awhile.

busiwit, I want to go to willow springs but it's all the way in bakersfield... jeez that 300 odd miles away. Kinda far..

chAi 08-04-2006 03:32 AM

meh... roughly 45-50mile commute for school... been running that for the past 3 months on the 8... :tear:

but now i got a dd so the 8's my weekend warrior! :wiggle:

I'm 80% sure i'll be goin to docs clinic on saturday, the 20% being if i can wake up on time:D: ... so i guess i'll see ya there buwisit :wavey:

brattesani 08-04-2006 03:41 AM

i still have to get around to taking my r-compounds off my 8 and putting on a muffler some sort befor it gets back on the road

Mazdaspeed RX8 ver2 08-04-2006 03:51 AM

so the other day, i found out im allergic to the old spice body spray. how i found out was stupid, i sprayed it on before work, after i got home from work, i found out that my body and underarms and my back where covered with a red rash... kinda sucked really bad...

N rider89 08-04-2006 03:59 AM

chAi 08-04-2006 04:46 AM

Booooooooo nasty body spray... HURRAY BE... nvm ;)

Mazdaspeed RX8 ver2 08-06-2006 06:46 PM

so heres something funny for you guys to read. i found a damaged strato blue mazdaspeed replica front bumper on the freeway on 80 before the toll plaza before the bay bridge. One mans garbage is another mans treasure :)

Moostafa29 08-06-2006 07:46 PM

How do you know it was a replica?

Mazdaspeed RX8 ver2 08-06-2006 09:27 PM

because i picked it up and it says KBR in the middle of the front grille

IZoomZoomI 08-06-2006 11:27 PM

i think i have a good feeling of who that bumper belongs to. I don't think it's strato blue though.

nice find, the guy must have gotten his car towed and can't get up on the flat bed. Looks like some good luck is coming around your way finally.

N rider89 08-07-2006 01:55 AM

yeah for free stuff :lol:
