    Well you guessed it another opportunity to spend a long day with all your cone smacking buds!

    Don't forget the SCCA has online registration available at DLB Racing.com. Please register on-line if your planning to attend it may speed up the registration process for all of us!

    So who is planning on joining in on the fun!

    Perhaps if the number stays below... say... 75. Right now according to the entry list there are 61 entrants. Maybe I can make it to work on time that way!

    More than likely, it will mean the registration line will start on the far side of Hurst and you'll have to leave for work in the middle of the first heat.

    Considering your new avatar, that might be a good thing

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

    You two really ought to work out a co-driving arrangement - I'm interested to see what POS could do with those 16 extra ponies against all those MR2s.

    I would have no problem if POS wanted to co-drive my car. Seriously. I'd like to see him take it to the MR2's myself!

    Can't wait for Sunday!

    Just got back from getting an alignment. Feels like a totally different car. Previous alignment was as follows:

    Camber: FL: -1.8 FR: -1.8 RL: -2.4 RR: -3.1
    Caster: FL: +4.2 FR: +4.8
    Toe: F: .28 degrees in R: .49 degrees out

    No wonder the car handled the way that it did.

    New settings:

    Camber: F: -1.4 R: -1.9
    Caster: L: +5 R: +4.9
    Toe: F: .2 degrees out R: .02 degrees out

    Just got back from a "quick" test drive, and it feels amazinig!

    Rick's on Irving Blvd. got it done in less than 45 minutes for $80, and they are actually familiar with aligning the Miata.
