    OK, the pirate dictionary is so good, I might have to make it a Race-day magnetic for the Yaris!
    Not sure about the 1/8 mile drag vs a 1.6 Miata, but willing to find out this weekend. I'm there!

    good thing there are no noise restrictions at this site, may be sporting a little more noise than usual...............
    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.

    We'll set the tires on fire to act as a warning.

    Actually, there will be 225' between the laste gate where the sweeper begins and the edge of the pavement.

    Hmmm, Looks like I'll have to shift into 3rd several times Based on recent events, this could be a problem for me Oh well, as long as I don't put it in 1st again, I'll be OK!
    What's left of a '96 Miata with stock clutch.
    My car exceeds my driving ability. That's the only possible explanation.

    The ol' second-to-fifth shift. Mark's always good for it at least once on any course where you hit third.
