Hello hello everyone! It's been a little while since I popped in on the boards. As some of you may or may not know, I graduated from UofI this May, and proceeded to go to Houston for an intense summer of teacher training. I taught some very cute and also pain-in-the-ass 4th graders. Quite the...

Sunday April 18th Autocross in Rantoul,IL (same place as the last time, for those of you that came) 25$ for 5-6 runs Fun runs afterwards More info: http://www.soltec.net/~wcwagner/ccscc.html look under "Solo II / Autocross" I personally will probably be autcrossing the Spitfire, so that's...

I thought it'd be fun to ask everyone what their dream car is. Mine's an easy one for me to decide on, since I've been a Porschephile since the day I got into cars (March 24th, 2000 - the day I got my 1974 Triumph Spitfire). I doubt I will ever own one (remember - I'm a teacher in the making)...

In case anyone was wondering why they haven't seen me at all on AIM lately, it's because I gave it up for Lent. It's kind of stupid, I know (braindead , but I have a lot of work to get done in the next 2 months (help) , so I think it's a good idea. Feel free to email me (mijk55@yahoo.com) or PM...

So, I'm working on writing, performing, and recording a Mazda Team song. It's going to be set to the tune of Dynamite Hack's cover of "Boyz in the Hood." I'll post lyrics when I get them all written out, and when its recorded, i can put it up for download :D

I got accepted into Teach for America! :D I don't know where I'll be teaching yet, but i now have a job as a history or possibly english teacher! My second choice for locations was Chicago, so who knows, I might even still be around! WOOOOOO ;)

:D

This is a little ahead of time BUT check it: Ken's BDay: the 18th of May My BDAY: the 20th of May Aric's BDAY: the 24th of May anyone else close to this? We need to party. I'll also have just graduated from U of I! So even more reason to celebrate. It'll be MAD TYTE :D :D

As in, I'm getting a set of P5 tires and rims this weekend. So stage one of "unfucking mike's car" is being completed. Stage two involves finding a cool new front bumper. Then fixing everythAng up.

:D And to think, just a few months ago I had just had my car and innocently stumbled across this site. Thank you, Google. Now I've had the lucky opportunity to become friends with some 'interesting' ;) people who share my enthusiasm for my car, not to mention a lot of my other hobbies. I'll...

"I have procrastinated enough...time for some homework" uh huh that's why you're on the IL forum? ;) hee hee actually, I'm doing the same thing. also, I have something to tell you!

I think Mazda Team creative juices need to start flowing. Plus this'll be fun when i'm bored at work. :rolleyes: Everyone know how this works? Ass 2-3 sentences, and for added fun, end your entry mid-sentence like this... Anywho. I predict weirdness already. And perhaps the utterance of MOOSE...

...just a little reminder that some pictures are nice to look at don't avert your eyes, children! :D don't know why i chose this one, i just think she's cute

I've taken it two 2 different dealers who heard it, acknowledged it, and said they checked it out, lubed it, and fixed it. Yet I had the creaking problem still as I drove it off the lot. Is this fixable or a permanent characteristic of the MSP suspension? Just wanting to know - it's pretty...

My MSP has 7200 miles on it. About 2000 of those are hard driving, the rest is break in/long trips My stock front tires have about 35% tread left! That seems like an unusual amount of wear, even for attending 2 autocrosses. Any thoughts? :confused: And yes, I did rotate the tires this weekend...

anyone wanna convince me to come north tonight instead of tomorrow? by convince i mean tell me of something fun to do... and talk of it by like 4pm at the latest i need to get out of this godforsaken college town (argh)

Okay, what do you guys think? I curbed my car the 2nd night I had it :mad: (so long ago) and I shaved off a little bit of the rubber ridge that is supposedly meant to "protect the rim" (it didn't protect it quite as well as I'd hoped). Basically, its like a eighth to quart-inch deep shaving of...

I installed my new K&N drop in filter tonight. No complaints here, it sounds cool, and throttle response seems much improved. I can throw my car into a fit of wheel hop by quickly dumping clutch in second gear, something it didn't do before. Not that wheelhop is a good thing, but it does point...

Just checking it to see who's coming and where they're staying. I have to work on and off this Friday. So if you're coming down and crashing w/ me, call my cell in advance to let me know when approx. you'll be down. 217.377.8950 As for Saturday, my dad should be at my apt. around 9am. I have a...

With that in mind: I had near empty boxes of cereal in the apt. And a half-gallon of milk that goes bad tomorrow. So in an attempt to kill two bird with one bowl, i'm currently enjoying cookie crisp mixed with smart start. I DO NOT recommend this.
