Rotary Addicts headed to NJMP for Rolex series race! July 18th

Just a friendly reminder that the 20b powered Rx-8s will be roaring around New Jersey Motorsports Park July 18th weekend for the Grand am rolex series race! If you haven't heard the sound of a peripheral ported 20b going full throttle then you don't know what angels sound like when they sing.

Mazda just released a new flag, which we're considering purchasing to show our support at the race, but it's quite expensive so we'll see about that. Anyway, I'm just looking to get an idea of who will be attending the race. Too bad there is no Mazda car corral in the infield where everyone can meet... maybe next year? We've got a decent little crew assembled so far including, Goodfellafd3s, bridgeported12a, theorie, jhnrx7 and a few other lady friends

The sound of the rx-8s seriously gives me goosebumps

Good news guys.... There IS a car corral for Mazda! $30 for the corral though, I signed up so Clunkers will be attending

$30 to get in, compared to $10 for parking outside the track.

Dennis did you sign up for the car corral too? As far as I know Rich and Ryan will be driving down the night before, my house is only an hour from the track. You're welcome to stay here, but you'll probably have to sleep on the floor hahaha.

I did sign up for the Corral As of now its looking like just me and Omar (Sliver mazdaspeed rx8)

I obviously dont want to impose so let me see who else from the Rx8 club will be attending first.
If no one....... then Ill bring the beer's... preferably blue moon

SAT. morning or Sunday morning? If you're not coming the night before I suggest just heading straight to the track, my house is out of the way for your guys.

Nice just look for all the Rx-7s... I'll probably be wearing a SakeBomb Garage shirt

Dennis, we'll be leaving my house around 8 so we should be there around 9. There are other things going on at the track. There is a "pit walk" for like an hour or half hour, but everyone is allowed in the paddock area which is where the garages are.

It looks like the Red Baron will be making an appearance, but my brother heard the Saabaru 'FD Killer' might be there so his silver beauty will be staying in the garage

Dennis, if you need Tommy Bagel's #, shoot me a text. I'm gettin' all fired up for tomorrow, the 24 hour race down in Daytona was a freaking blast and tomorrow will be just as great
