Introduce yourself here! Part II
Hello everyone,
A Rotard here, I have a 2005 Mazda RX-8 and am an avid autocrosser; I was introduced to autocross by my friends Glenn and Tony who are both S2K owners and autocrossers. Since then I’ve discovered I’ve got something of a knack for high performance driving in general and I'm getting more and more competitive as time goes on.
Architecturally, there are some key similarities between the RX8 and the S2K and I’ve applied my engineering background and knowledge I’ve picked up the last few years to design and build my own custom suspension for the RX8. I’ve joined S2Ki for two reasons, one is that I would like to also develop such a system for the S2K, and the other is that we share bolt pattern and I want to browse the classifieds for competition wheels suitable for STR class, which has similar restrictions to STX RWD class.
So I'll pop up here and there, shopping and browsing for suspension knowledge, the S2K community seems as rich and knowledgeable as the RX8 community so I trust that I have much to learn from you all, Thanks.

I'm brand new and very enthusiastic. just got a 2004 silver/black, 50k miles. Monday will take it to body shop to refinish the front bumper and hide all those nasty license plate holes since I won't have a front plate. From my home in 20 minutes I will be on our two lane twisty roads in East San Diego, first ride with a friend on a m.c. tomorrow morning, July 4, 2014. I usually ride a m.c. as well. I had my Honda dealer (I also have a 2011 Fit Sport 5MT that I love as well) thoroughly inspect mine, and it's good except they will refinish the front rotors, new pads, and brake fluid. Next Friday after it's out of the body shop, it will be detailed. Very happy, also to find fellow enthusiasts.
Hello! I've been a S2000 owner since 2004 and have from time to time run into other S2000 owners, but thought it would be great to connect with other owners for more In depth forums and idea exchange. I'd also like to connect with a local group to take part in events and local drives. I'm from Connecticut and look forward to becoming a member of this special group. Suggestions are greatly appreciated on how to engage with local groups and become a member of this community.
Thanks and all the best.

Hi Don Johnson (really ;-) in the Savannah area. Wifey & I do autocross with SCCA. Most events are out on Hutchinson Island, but the next one is at Roebling Road Raceway on 8/2. F/B page is "Coastal Empire SCCA Events". Maybe we can join you for coffee tonight!
