I keep waving at Rx8s I pass on the street and the people in them just look at me like I am crazy. Today and yesterday its been a gray rx8 not the same one I don't think. Guess I still have not seen anyone from here lol.

I usually wave too, though only once have i had someone even acknowledge me. (sunset/215 exit). Then again, I don't see a ton of rx8's driving around. I did chase one down for a bit a couple months ago, but didnt find out where he was going (might be considered weird if i follwed him home, lol)

lol good looking cars are nice, but they can't all be show worthy

13x

huh? my stupid pill kicked in

superhypered

thats very true.. previous owner did not take amazing care of it. even managed to bang all 4 of these rare chrome OEMs into the curb too. i did one, but only on accident, i swear

Thrasher3

i wave at people all the time but i see few rotaries except on thursdays and the third friday for some reason.

monchie

I never wave at people. For me, it's kinda embarrassing to do that. I don't know, it's just me.

xexok

Try waving at random people that are walking/jogging around as you drive by, and throw in a honk. They get pretty confused but they usually wave back.

superhypered

haha... that happened while i was riding my bike when i was younger, a guy in his truck honk and waved as if he knew me, i waved back.. confused as hell.

also, its pretty likely i'll make it out there next month

monchie.. pics of my car are up on my thread now.. should i keep it like that for vegas?? :P

Good Morning......I made it back from my mini vacation.

We've posted several times about the peeps driving 8s not waiving back......No one wants to be that friendly any longer. 7 drivers tend to be more friendly.

superhypered

they just dont have rotary fever. and hey Phil, my friend wants your autograph.. just saying, in case i see you next month lol.

I come out of the woodwork every third Friday of the month for a combined rotary meet. The March meet location is up for grabs right now but I am leaning toward a Pizza joint. Keep your eyes on this thread for updates. I still work so I am unable to make most of the Sin City Rotary meets that are held every Thursday evening. Keep your eyes on that forum for meeting dates and places.

Plan on coming in May for the WHiV meet..........You will have a blast.
