STL cruise to elaphanet rocks Oct 11, 09
 

Title says it all.
Will be at McDonald, im thinking start show about 10am ish and head off at 11am. With the quick map I did in google maps it is 2hr 46min. Im not indorsing any speeding or other violations but if things are the same we should beat that time. This will put us down there about 2pm. They have grills and there are other food options near by. Feel free to offer any input.

Count me in.

hmmmm..... I think the car was still down last time. I might have to make an appearance.

Gas up before hand or will there be any stops during the drive?
And any more specific on the starting/meeting place?

God damn it, why did i just take the thing apart.

start point
501 Old Smizer Mill Rd, Fenton, MO 63026 (McDonald's Hamburgers)
we will be driving just out side Hillsboro, De Soto, and Potosi. We can stop half way or 2/3 the way there but i would say fill up before we head out its about 77 miles each way so a full tank should get you there and back.

I just got my non-turbo FC running tonight, I'll be down to ride by then

"Spirit" - Since 07-07-06

Sounds like a good plan, count me in!

Print off some maps and hand out to everybody before we leave out, in case somebody gets separated. Also put your cell number on the map so lost people can call to get back on track.

Let's plan on grilling at the park, sound good? I'll volunteer to bring a bag of charcoal, lighter fluid, and some grill tools. How about everybody else post of what you can bring. Burgers, brats, buns, side dishes, plates and utensils, etc. And I'd say everybody bring your own cooler.

Oh, and definitely post this up on rx8club ... or I can if you want. You could even invite Mazda 3 and Miata guys if you want.

Done.
Nice to see you around still :)

I can bring brats and buns, just need to figure out a rough number of people that are planing on coming.

my buddy Drew and I will bring drinks.

Im down, i'll bring some plastic utencils and plates.

I'll bring a football we can toss around down there too ...

I think I might have to back out. :(
Got family things that afternoon.

I want some Cisco, preferably grape ...

I'll bring the handguns.

I hope there will be some other 1st gens coming then, I am hoping I can get one in the future and was wanting to show the wife what they look like in person.

Next one I'll be there!

hey guys just wanted to say hey, im over on rx8club and boosted and nillah brought this over here, i hope we can set a meet up with rx7 and 8s down the road and make it a huge meet! look forward to meetin some of you down the road.

Perks, are you and some other RX8club guys going to come on this cruise, or just waiting for the next one?


Thats what I said when I missed the last STL cruise, here we are almost five years later...

we actually have another meet in Columbia (mizzou) this weekend that a couple of us have already said were going too, i actually considered ditching that meet for this, but i go to school at Mizzou, so the meet is right here in town, and my weekend is PACKED!! but most of us over there have been tryin to get a huge meet goin in STL tried a weekend or so ago and only got 6 rx8's out there but were making strides. But ill be going back and forth between here and rx8club trying to coordinate some things and maybe come spring we can get a HUGE meet goin.

not sure if any of you guys would be interested but i think a couple of us are going to try and make it back to the last midnight madness of the year. Its out at Gateway if any of you are unsure of what it is, its a drag, drift, and theres a small car show. You pay $25 and get to run your car a couple of times, the drifting is normally sub par, and the car show is mainly members from over on STLSR (St Louis Street Racing) but we normally find a way to have a good time. i know some of the guys over on rx8 have been tryin to get some guys together for it.

Wish i could make it out there this weekend though, a cruise sounds like a real good time, but we will have to get something goin here shortly. Someone make sure and get some pics and let me know, i've never been or heard of elaphanet rocks so im interested to see what its like.

My weekends are booked until years end. Maybe next year..

dang that blows

i might be in on this see how the weather is i was supposed to go to fright fest
