There definitely are a lot of memories associated with it, and life experiences. It was also the first car that I raced, the first car that I modified, and while not an ideal race car, it was a fantastic DD and I think it was a good one for playing with mods on as well.

I'm a bit behind on posting, but that's normal for me. At the beginning of this year, the rumors started, that Mazda was going to be releasing a 30th Anniversary Miata and it was going to be a bright color. For those who are not familiar, we*ve owned 7 Miatas (NAs and NBs), raced 6 over the...

Friday night, company party in downtown DC. Husband picks my co-worker and I up after work in the P5 and about 2 blocks from the restaurant, I hear him pumping the pedal, car not sounding happy, etc. Pull up to the light, he turns the car off, puts it in 1st, and we sort of limp through the...

Stretched out the bike rack last night so we could carry this tandem home.

Went to a rallyx on Saturday.

Paid money for this vinyl work, pretty pleased with it:

Thank you and yes, he did win 3rd place in PR. :D If only it had been dry on the first runs, if only...

Spent this past weekend having fun and getting dirty at the SCCA National Rallycross Championship:

DC SCCA This season will be our 3rd season at the huge venue in Frostburg, MD aka Gravel Mountain. The hilltop location has a ton of space so were able to build big, fast, fun courses that are more reminiscent of stage rally than autocross (except with no trees to hit!). 03/20/16 Championship...
