    Beautiful. Now get rid of the stock daisies and get some 15" wheels on there with a 50 series tire.
    ...and across the line.

    Its been a long time since there has been an update. So here is a recap of the last few months.

    We did another autocross in November and the new tires were great!


    You know, its a pretty darn small car.


    For my birthday I got a nice miata cake. hahaha

    So there was a little ice storm here in Febuary and I took the Miata out for some snow/ice donuts. Let me tell you, Falken Azenis are HORRIBLE on cold slippery stuff. Horrible!

    I got stuck in my parking lot at work and got out to take a peek.

    You know, hail is not healthy for miatas.





    Since the gas got up near $4/galloin it has become my daily driver. MUCH better at the pump than a Tahoe!


    If I am going to be driving this this summer, than I want some nice cool shade, here is my new window tint.

    I went over to the Propwash party in Justin at Miata Solutions and hung out with another 40+ miata owners!




    My car stayed up there for a few more days and Stevan from Miata Solutions installed my new suspension and fixed my clutch.
    I bought a set of Flyin Miata V-Maxx coilovers with the NB tophats and front and rear swaybars. MAN is it ever fun to drive now! I lowered the car as well when the suspension was installed over at Miata Solutions in Justin.

    I made a couple changes recently. I removed all the decals and tried to make a more inconspicuous daily driver and I put on my 15" 99 wheels which I had Marmed paint for me at Maaco South Hulen. I sure loks different but I like the clean look!



    Not quite a Grand Sport but a cool little tribute car

    That's a beautiful car. I love that blue color with the red hash marks. Looks really sharp.

    I just got my Hard Dog roll bar delivered and started my install process. I have been debating whether or not I'll leave my soft top on the car. After putting my soft top up and taking good look at it.i now see it's garbage and I decided just to take it off the car altogether.
