I'm in for the show but not in the show...

ok, I'm new to this forum (kinda). I just picked up an 07 mazda3 hatch 2 months ago. I used to have an RX8 and still belong to the club. I'm definitely going to this show, but it's just a stock 3 so I won't be in the show, and I'm interested in this get together. Is this open to all mazda...

I've always been curious. Mazda offers an upgrade package for about 2K that increase's hp on the speed3 to close to 300, and keeps the warrenty. Has anyone got this option and how does that compare to other cars in this hp range?

a few more...and of course what's an exotic car show with out an few RX-8's (cool) The first 2 are a Noble which for the price of 85K will give you the performance better then a lambo. 6 X-8's in a row, of course I'm a little biased My ride...

Ok, I went to the show. Yes, there were a ton of vipers but the shows sponsored by the Viper club of America. I count over 30+ vipers on site, with 1 twin turbo pushing over 800hp to the wheels. Lots of NSX's, good amount of Z's from different years, some Bimmers, a few porsche's, lots of...

ok, this is what you guys are saying. We will be splitting this party up. Those that really want to dyno will meet at the bristol dyna location and those that want to cruise will meet off the highway and end the cruise at the dyno location some time later, bringing everyone together. From...

Ok guys, I've been sitting back and waiting on some decision. The way I see it is: 1) We have an alternate dyno location in bristol. The owner has already verified that he has saturday open or we can combine with the probes on sunday ( going in second to them). He has a grill if we provide the...

Boosted, How long have you had the Orange protege. I was down at Balise a few weeks ago and they were selling an 03 orange with the same body kit as your sig ( or close to it). Was that your car? That car looked really sick...

Did you want to hookup (wow, I gotta watch the slang nowadays. This could mean something totally different.) before heading down to the BBQ? It's just down the street 20 minutes or so...

Wahooo, I'm finding more horsepower everyday... this is gotta be good for another 20+hp. I wonder if this counts as an engine mod...maybe I should dyno now (j/k)...

Sorry Cd, not from anywhere near Brazil. Born in Mass., family comes from Puerto Rico, with roots back to Spain. Rodrigo is just short for Rodriguez, which is pretty common in the hispanic culture ( just like Smith is in English).

Well, I got more stickers...so I guess that makes mine faster... (first)

Sorry slug, I guess I didn't mention I got an 8 also, so at least 2 of us will be there...Black is the fastest anyway...

Thanks, I never even knew about this site until slug posted on the RX8club site. I see on this site that some are running 12 and 13 sec 1/4's. Thats awesome. I can't wait for some of those mods you guys are running to become available for the 8's. See you all on BBQ day...
