What no tequila!
I believe your pillow is still in my basement, and yes you can crash here again if you wish.

 

Thanks!
...and I still have tequila that I bought when I was in the Bahamas. Less weight for better mpgs. lol

I'm pretty exited for this. Getting some brand new rear tires on the weekend + alignment.
*I ruined my car at DGRR.

 

Jason, I may have to join that party.

I've replied to the e-mail, but haven't yet received a response, is this what everyone else has been experiencing?

 

I was kidding about the tequila. I also ruined my car at DGRR stripped the paint off the wheel wells and 30+ paint chips in the hood on the way home in the snow and the rain.

 

Hahaha!
I'm looking forward to this.

 

Any word yet? I sent my e-mail with picture July 1st. I guess it's still early but, tickets for the race start to go up in price this Friday. I'm Looking forward for this year, I met a lot of RX7 owners last year!!!

 

Ya, I haven't heard or gotten anything back yet either. Would love to do the lap in the 8, but I'm on the first weekend of my vacation, and I'm driving back from Quebec where need to come home with the truck, so I guess I'll just have to run in shotgun in my buddy's Speed6.

 

1 week till race weekend! Anyone get a email or hear anything from Mazda?

 

Last email was to spread the word.

I'm pretty sure we'll have to pick up our tickets at the little hut that's just before the main entrance to the track.

Then again, they have done some major reno to the track this year. I'll have to scope the place out and see what changed.

 

Word is on the GTA Rx8 FB page that if you email them asking for a confirmation, they'll email you back with one

 

Wasn't that the case for the first email? They asked for a pic of the car we were going to bring?
You would think that's confirmation enough?

 

lol, yeah.
I couldn't imagine getting an email to come out, driving all the way out there and them saying, sorry your not on the list, you didn't double confirm the confirmation.
I believe they have a designated place to distribute Mazda swag with the tickets like last year.

 

Emails were sent out today with the details.
I will be going. See you there...

 

We'll be racing this weekend in the Canadian Touring Car Championship, support race for the ALMS weekend at Mosport (Canadian Tire Motorsports Park). Marlin Langeveldt (20B3Rotor on this forum) will be piloting the Can-Saf Motorsports RX8. Be sure to stop by and say hi and cheer us on! We'll also be throwing a party on the inside of the track, between corners two and three, our DJ has played in Miami, New York, etc. come on by!

 

Got my confirmation yesterday, if you have not email them back.
Probably taking the 8, problem with the clutch on my FD, ****!

I'll be there too, but not in the RX this time.... not enough seats. I'll keep my eyes out for all you guys!

For those of you who aren't getting your tickets through Mazda or are interested in going but don't want to/can't spend the $70 for the weekend, here's a tip. If you order single day ($50) or weekend passes ($70) on the Mosport website Canadian Tire Motorsport Park Home enter the promo code SPEED. That will save you 50% on your tickets!

 

Ya, I'll be there with the Xterra, I need the truck for the 3 weeks that I'll be home. The car would be more fun, but not at all useful....

 

Ok, so out of curiously, I was looking at the schedule, and I noticed the parade lap is still not mentioned in terms of time. Just Keeps referring to the website for time. I tried to check the website but the site is down
It's on the sat, correct?

 

My source said the parade lap was on friday ( the chiropractor for the Dyson team), but im possitive it was saterday or sunday last year.

 

I really hope it's not on Friday. I hope they stick to last year and keep the sat. People have to work!

 

Track time is precious during the biggest annual event at Mosport. Likely be Friday.

 

that's a shame... if that's the case, I won't be able to make it..
I get that track time is precious.. but why change the system when it was working just fine.
Not many people going to make it on the Friday. People do have to support this nasty habit.

 

i work at mosport and i gotta work this weekend but all rock the TII their lol hopelly see some rx7s around

 

Parade laps are 7am Sunday lol Drivers to assemble at 6:15am

 

7am... with a 6:15am briefing.. I don't think the sun is out by then... that'll be interesting.. never did Mosport in the dark.
