Excellent day at the track!

Postby D Walker » Fri May 27, 2011 9:14

We had a great time at the track with the RX8 today, and it was great to see the 3's, MS3's, Miatas, etc out there. Will post more later along with some pictures taken by Ben (chromal) and possibly some in-car video.

Once again, if you missed out on this day, you should REALLY try and make the next one, it was really a truly great outing!

It seriously was a great time. I would suggest that even if people don't plan on running their cars they should come watch all the cool cars rip around the track. It was epic watching JD maul "faster" cars in the RX8 and my Mazdaspeed.

+1. Seriously awesome! Hearing everyone in the paddock talk about how impressive the car is, is pretty sweet!

To that end, if we wanted to make a "club event" out there we could bring the canopy etc. out the next time and make it a social event as well.

Maybe one of these days I'll pickup a roll bar for the Miata and join you guys... :)

While I'm at it, she could use some more power, haha. :D
