    Default newby here!

    greetings ....found this site thru miata.net.Someone posted under me (sorry forgot who) and their location said dfw........home of the cheap....... hilarious!I had a Spitfire,GT6,and 914 back in the day,and then the family car period so for my 50th B-Day I bought a sweet 3xblack 94 base model in SF on eBay and my wife and her sis flew out and drove it back (I hadta work) Why do I want to be involved here? Well you look like groovy folks and I am in your neck o'the woods from time-to-time.My wife works in Richardson once a week (telecommutes the rest of the time) and when I am off on the days she works I drive her down in the Miata and usually just cruise around till she gets finished and spit polish my ride in the time to kill.I live in a choice point of SE Okla for twisties and would be willing to host a staging area for a cruise or whatever..........anyway,howdy and see ya later!

    Welcome barrysmith!

    I had to look on the map... Wilburton sounded familiar... I've been there it's near Robber's Cave State park!

    That's a LONG drive to Richardson! What does your wife do?

    correct.....Robbers Cave.She does IT at Cingular.....bout a 3 hr drive but she has a choice job and like I said only has to go in once a week ........... and she drives an FX 35 so it's not that big of a chore I work for XTO Energy here in natural gas production.
    I lived around the Prescott&Douglas area in the 70's but needless to say its pretty different now from then..........still love to drive around there though (hate it that Stonebridge isnt a thru street anymore)

    Welcome to the madness, barrysmith!

    I'm guessing it was my pointy board tagline that led you here, which means it's working :

    Welcome, indeed.

    I found this group myself only a few weeks ago. Lots of friendly people who are always up for some good Miata- or motorsports-related mischief!
