Blue tape...Quote:

3. Profit
I'd recommend blue tape for first time out. 92 may not be available. If you buy/make numbers, you probably want 3-4 numbers you can mix and match. Not easy numbers like '1'. I bought 3, 4, 6, & 8 when I bought my set.Quote:

I registered for this one with No. 92, so I should be good to go for this event. I'm going to hit Michael's today and see what they've got in the way of magnetic vinyl and stuff.Quote:

LOL, I swapped my drivers side door when I had a mishap and strangely after the swap magnets no longer stuck to it! I'm not sure if that door had previously been fixed with bondo or not but it was weird. Was a factory door as well.
I read somewhere that Mazda accidently shipped some Miatas with doors that had reversed polarity.Quote:

For some reason the magnetic stuff doesn't want to stick securely to either door. I know I've got a little bondo in the driver's side (up near the leading edge), but the passenger door is for sure unmolested.
Just a quick trip to Michael's to plow through the scrapbooking supplies and explain to the confused artsy clerk chick what I needed... great success!

You don't need the X, just the 92 :)
I threw it in just in case my car was confused with a Viper or something... :rolleyes:Quote:

I would like to, someone name a spot
I know there's about 100 Mexican joints in that area, but no clue as to where they might serve some breakfast.
As an aside (and this is gonna seem like a real stoopid question), is it ok to wear shorts???
Yes, and I would suggest it. I think the only dress requirement is shoes that cover the entire foot.Quote:
