Hello

Hey. My name is Jake. Im new to the whole rotary thing. I got a 2004 RX8 GT. I couldnt believe how hard it was to find this car lol. It took me almost four months to find one like I wanted it. And I finally found one down to every detail i wanted =]. But anyways, I live around Hickory,NC. I would like to get into some of the meets and rides with ya'll guys. Or maybe just a few people around Hickory meet up there one day or something. Thanks =] and any help would be terrific =]

thank you

Jake, if you have this coming weekend off you should join us at Deals Gap. Just a short skip down the road for you. It would truly make you appreciate the car you just bought.

rx8jake · 10-04-2010, 10:53 PM

I was wanting to go to this event =] is their any fees or anything i need to be aware of?

rx8jake · 10-05-2010, 12:37 AM

And what day exactly?

FC Zach · 10-05-2010, 01:00 AM

You are thinking of the Deals Gap Rotary Rally which is still in the works, two different dates have been laid out there but not final just yet. I think VR8 and a few others are just going for a small weekend trip. I was thinking about doin the same. It will cost you money for registration to the DGRR but that is to be announced later.

FC Zach · 10-05-2010, 01:02 AM

And when the main event is set in stone I would definitely recommend you to go, Its a blast and something every rotary owner should be a part of!

No fees this year, our attendance level did not dictate that we add too much, so it's just a drivers weekend.

We will arrive Friday afternoon (8th), our larger drive around the mountains and through the Dragon will be Saturday (9th) starting around 10:00 am.

He may or may not be thinking about DGRR. That's in the spring of course. This event is always in the fall and formally goes by the moniker BOTD (Brotherhood of the Dragon). Website. You're welcome to make the trip too Zach.

rx8jake · 10-05-2010, 11:35 AM

I was talking about the one this weekend. the little ride/get together =] Im in if we are going

VR8 · 10-05-2010, 05:31 PM

If you want to stay Friday night and/or Saturday night Jake, we can get you in with an inflatable mattresse. If that's the case you could take a portion of the room rate which is $149/night. Right now it's split with one other person using a bedroom Saturday night. So Friday night is a 2 way split and Saturday night would be split 3 ways. It's confusing I know. Let me know what you have in mind.

We would travel down Interstate 40 passing Hickory, NC somewhere around 12:00 or 1:00 on Friday afternoon.

rx8jake · 10-06-2010, 12:19 AM

ya. i gotta work Friday night lol. So I wont be able to attend until Saturday. And i'm needing to leave Friday night. So I am planning on meeting yall somewhere Saturday morning before we head out and then leaving when we get done riding for the day.
