What's up 7club. I've been hosting a mini meet up with rx8's for a few years now and figured I'd invite some faster doritos.
This is the fifth time hosting this meet up but it's the same as last time.
Saturday May 8th 2021 (rain date would be the 15th)
9am at Buddys
Buddy's Log Cabin Family Restaurant, (97 Tremont Rd, Pine Grove, PA 17963)
A few of us meet up at a local arbys to carivan to buddy's if interested 7:45am meet up at Arbys, (7720 Main St, Fogelsville, PA 18051)
Main meet up will be at Buddy's Log Cabin Family Restaurant, (97 Tremont Rd, Pine Grove, PA 17963) around 9am for brunch.
There is a gas station a few miles north of Buddy's on 125
Then drive the mini-dragon on this path(or one close to it).
Rt 125 is equal parts scenic and challenging. Coming down the mountain on the Shamokin side there are some serious downhill hairpins that you need to pay attention to, so stay within your limits and pay attention to the road! On a nice day there may be some amount of sport bike traffic, so watch out for our two wheeled friends and be aware that they will be looking to pass (no matter how quick you may be going :-)). Bottom line, pay attention to the road and your surroundings and everyone will have a great day!
I'm certainly up for some spring time fun(who isn't these days) with a rx8/ fc. It's a bit of a drive from ohio, but can't knock a decent road closer than tail of the dragon. Is it worth a short 2 day trip?
[edit] going off some past footage, I plan to show up if I can(a day of fun and some handshakes is enough for me).

I can't say if it is or isn't worth it for you but we have had a few people from far away come by for this little meet up. (VA beach, Niagara Falls, NY, etc)
and here is what one of the 8 club members who lives in philly had to say

1. Can confirm this run has a waaaaaayyyy better effort-to-fun ratio than a trip to the Dragon from PA
2. I miss my R3
I'd be glad if people could make it out and have a good time, I would hate for someone to make a Two day trip and it's raining. :/
A local 8 owner and myself will be going to pocono raceway the Tuesday (May 11th) after the mini dragon meet so I figured I'd post up info about it here
Less than a week to go bump, current weather prediction is partly cloudy and a high of 60.
Also just a reminder that we are meeting up at buddys log cabin at 9am, however some of us local guys east of buddys meet up at an arbys and cruise there together.
7:45am meet up at Arbys (7720 Main St, Fogelsville, PA 18051)
9am at Buddys (97 Tremont Rd, Pine Grove, PA 17963)
If anyone would like my cell number for the day of, shoot me a PM.

Turns out you might be the only yellow car there. My good friend in his boosted yellow 8 can't make it due to personal stuff coming up last second.
This is cool.
There's no way I can make it this year in the FD, but I appreciate you extending an invite. I'll share this w/ some of the people in my area.
