I am in, regardless of location. Wish my car was done to show off, but I guess I will have to live with the LE yet again. Unless Rogue can pull off a miracle and deliver my car tomorrow... What do you think Stevan?![]()
I know this is more than the 6 hours' warning we usually get for a Weds nite meet. However, Geoff "Stoly" will be up here on the 28th, having just dropped Scrat off at TDR for tuning and misc tying up of loose ends. He planned to come up specifically on a Wednesday so that he can chill with the DFW folks and meet as many as he can.
Let's not disappoint.
Location? Personally - I really miss Fillmore's nice little parking area and good selection of beer. It's not so far north that the south-enders should be offended and it's not so far south that those of us in Southern Oklahoma...er...Frisco would rather just stay at home. I suppose, however, it is a bit far East for the west-enders....maybe?
What does everyone else fancy?

Crap. I will on a beach in Hawaii on the 28th. And I REALLY wanted to go to see Steve's car!
Sounds like fun.
Oh, well I've got two sevens, and two sevens beats a frush.
Thanks mk2tmr2! Just made an intro thread and look forward to meeting up with everyone on the 28th.
I'm in for the "Let's all meet Stoly" event regardless of location...you know, within reason and all.

Advance notice is great. Titus having to downgrade to the LE what a disgrace. He should feel lucky that BJ lets him drive itI've followed Stoly's build on CR I would like to see it in person. I guess Titus could just go by TDR to see it since he'll be solo in Hawaii. Lucky.

Yeah, I guess I need to give the LE more credit. It is looking much better since I added the NB cloth top, red cloth seat covers, R-pack front lip, and re-did the leather on the OEM steering wheel. It could use a visit to the PDR man, and I need to get a new BBS cap for the one I lost, but it is still pretty nice.
I suspect I will be on a plane before Scrat arrives at TDR, but if it is still here when I get back, you can bet I will go see it.
I'll be back on 10/5.
Must see the cloth red seat covers, where did you get them?

I got these: http://www.designcovers.com/miataseatcovers.html
They are the burgundy color (although it is still more cherry red than the rest of the interior). The color bothered me for an hour then I got over it. The entire bottom of the seat and the front surface of the seat back is red, but he would only do the back half in black. Again, it bothered me for a bit but I am over it. For less than $100 shipped, I like them.
Stoly,
I just took a quick glance at your build thread. Impressive and expensive! If you want to get Scrat in our shop with out scraping that fancy-shmancey nose and lip, you will need to raise your car up. I'd recommend 12 3/8" from wheel center to lip in front and 12 1/2 rear.
BR - I'll be leaving the front and rear bumpers, lip, and GV lights here while you guys are working on Scrat which should make things easier. Looking forward to getting there!
EDIT: I'll work on getting the car raised up some as well; however the passenger side A-Arm had bloodied all my knuckles twice as God failed to endow me with the muscles required to loosen it in order to get the coilover raised on that side...
