    I think I fixed the overheating problem. The car didn't overheat today. But the cheap tires that came with the car just wouldn't stick.

    I see who Cosmos likes the best here. He is on a Miata forum, and only one picture of a Miata? hmmmmmmmmmm


    Not to mention how many pictures of a certain special someone's RX-8 are on here...........
    I learned this the hard way.....

    Take all of your valuables out of your car at night. This includes taking the mounting hardware off of your windshield or dash and hiding the power supplies. I lost over $ 1,000 to a thief with no hope of recovering my items and to top if off they smashed my window in the rain and my truck got soaked. Let my loss be your learning experience.

    What's left of a '96 Miata with stock clutch.
    My car exceeds my driving ability. That's the only possible explanation.

    My camera can't take pictures slow enough to capture non CSP or faster Miatas

    Plus when I got there all you monkeys were already done running and I wasn't about to stick around for the afternoon fun.

    Gracias

    I appreciate all of your help! It was also cool watching Lee run as well as he did.

    Despite the overly tight course (in some spots) I had a good time. Going back to the stock front bar really helped out and for once having a skid pad (like PCA always does) was nice for testing out the new setup.

    I tried to get through that first left-hander like the Miatas did on my first run in the afternoon. It failed miserably.

    Video to come soon.

    Nice time attack, errr, solo video Miatamoto. Good to hear the softer bar is working out. You were getting really slow with the big bar.

    So, that was a good test-tune course. Skid pad, 2 sweepers, a slalom, few tighter turns, and the S turn at the end. Good test of balance. Plus it was interesting to meet their event chair person.

    Yep, even though it wasn't the most exciting course it had all the elements needed to try out the sway bar change.

    You should see them around the first event in 2009 if history repeats itself :)

    Nice pics!

    Nice pixs!! Great use of depth of field to blur the background out. Adds more action to the image.

    Those really are some nice pictures. Best two:
    • 23 - did the wheels actually say on?)
    • 97 - send that one (1) to his parents, and (2) to Sports Car Magazine (after getting his parents' permission)
