Great day, mostly spent on the stand with the usual great events attendees. Thanks again to Caren as lead breakfast chef and to all who brought cakes, double choc shortbreads and home baked cookies.
I have posted elsewhere about the best part of the day for me being able to restore my power steering by fitting another control unit supplied by Mihail so a perfect day for me all round.

A present was given to Caren on behalf of the RX-8OC today for a special thank you for all her cooking this year =D> =D> =D> =D>

Once again many thanks supporting your club and look forward to seeing all the photos and videos taken today :thumleft:

They sound like a fun group :^o ... I can just hear whoever that is turning down the bacon roll - "Can't eat bacon now, I've noticed a blemish on my bumper #-o and I have to clean it off, then I'll have to polish the whole car again to make it all match so it can be shiny and impress all these blokes in shorts and baseball caps who are walking past. I really hope one of them will stop and say how shiny my car is, [-o< it will make my day and all the extra effort I went to worthwhile!" :crazy:

I'm personally very offended - I went and paid my £8 to the local Albanians on Saturday to get the car as spotless as it ever gets and I even took the time before heading for Brands Hatch to wipe off the bird's mess that had been deposited overnight on the back of my car. :wash:

RX8 Familia need to chill. Most of our cars are not just for "show and shine" - at least we have people who can actually drive lol unlike them. They're hung up on trying to P*** off the RX8 OC instead of developing their own club to be a bit less "odd". :roll:

Is it a club if it only exists on Facebook? :? I got the impression from the comments they were just polish and waxing fwiends. :kiss: :snog:

It figures they're endorsing the K&N Typhoon - "because shiny, make noise big" :wasted: ... if they all fit them they'll have to get trailers to take their shiny cars to shows. :cel:

They are very active going to shows and will be camping and partying at Tunerfest / Trax so they are successful and have some enthusiastic FB group managers.
Focus seems very much on "show" cars which I have no problem with whereas the RX8OC club members are about socialising and helping each other with the car being the common denominator whether it be a polish queens pride and joy, a well used daily, a battered but rescued tired looker or an all out track car.
One of the main attractions of this forum and club for me is the supportive and friendly attitude of everyone toward each other and especially toward "newbies" asking the same basic questions about oil, pre mix, revving before switching off etc;

Exactly right Chris, it's the variety of the club that makes up the RX8 OC
