Stormy blue is hot. It reminds me alot of strato blue mica that was out in europe. For those who aren't familiar with the 8's colors I attached a picture of stormy blue.

Yeah, that is a nice color! Nic, congrats on getting her back. Gotta love the extra power too. Why are you trading up though, other than the color?

Johny, hope to see you there. I'd like a ride too, haha.

I think Victor might be riding up with me. We're pulling his engine sometime this weekend, still not sure when. But I'll be there! Sounds like this weekend is gonna be HUGE.

Yeah, the weekend I have to miss everyone decides to come to town.

Here is stormy blue on a new mx5 (couldn't find a live 8 with stormy blue) and an 8 with strato blue for comparison.

Thanks everyone, as far as trading up...I think I just want to have what every other 8 owner has, HID's, leather, sun roof, and hell it'll be Stormy Blue! No one in our group should have one of those for a while! haha Well, I would hope not anyways. Looks like we should have a good turn out tomorrow. I talked to a few 8 owners here in Goldsboro, that said they would be interested in coming out sometime...I tried pressuring them to come out tomorrow so, we'll see.

Nice turn out tonight everyone! I feel bad for RX-3, but I'm sure we'll see her again. Oh Greg, I think you could have taken me on the outside! haha I hope everyonr made it home safe.

Also, I just wanted to thank Dot for getting Keri a cake, eventhough she didn't even know her. Hope to see you all at the next meet.

I'm home safe too, please don't be mad Keri, HAHA. I wasn't tired enough to need to stay up there. I only just started to get drowsy on the last few miles on the highway. I guess my narcolepsy is subsiding, HAHA. Good to see an RX-3 out there, and that she could make it home. Nice to meet all of you.

Glad to hear everyone made it home. I hope all the Jacksonville guys got home OK. It was a great Drive-In. I appreciate everyone making the effort to come out, it is definitely the best turn out we've had this year. Greg made a final count of 24 rotaries for the night. The first time we've had all gens present and an RX3 join the fun. I'll get pics posted as soon as my cameral recharges. Forgot to charge it Friday night and it ran out of power last night or I'd have taken more pics.

^argh, since I forgot my camera I was counting on yours Bert, haha.

Sorry to hear of your loss Johny, haha. Did you have that tape backed up on any other form of media? Might be time to upgrade to the 8 track, haha.

That really was an excellent turnout last night. I apologize to the Jacksonville crowd for not introducing myself, I just wasn't sure who was with our group or just there to eat. I hope you guys come up again though. And if you want to have a meet between there and Fayetteville just let me know. I also didn't see Carl there, did he leave before I got there? Maybe I did see him and just didn't know it cause I don't know what he looks like, haha.
