bah, there went the early lead lmao. Didn't think that was gonna last long.
 
Wow, this is going to be a hard decision who to vote for. Either way, I can't see most of the pictures here at work so I'm going to have to wait until I get home.
 
bah, there went the early lead lmao. Didn't think that was gonna last long.

I dunno. Your car is pretty bad ass.
Anything that is obviously designed to be driven hard automatically gets my attention.

Here is mine at Summit Point in WV:

miata_summit.jpg


Its funny - you have a dent in your hood that is merely inches away from the dent I had in mine.
 
Last edited:
Thanks for the kind words. That dent was there when I bought it. It's roughly the shape of the bottom of a trailer hitch. D'oh! lol.

But, to be perfectly honest, she was purchased with the intention of being abused on track, and she just takes everything in stride.

Was yours an R? I just picked up an R lip to absorb a few of the cone marks instead of the body. I've always thought they should have all come with that lip. Dead sexyness.
 
aMaff, your car was a close 2nd for me this month. I have a special place in my heart for cars that get used and abused like yours.

How do you like those Forzas? I had one in my Saturn and loved it. The tight hip bolsters really helped to communicate what the chassis is doing before things get out of hand and you have to "chase it" to get it back under control. I could never put my finger on whether I thought the seat or the tires were the best mod to the car.
 
For what they cost, the seats are great. That said, tires came WAAAAY before the seats were even a question lol
 
Who hits cones with that car? I know I've never hit a cone with that car...

:p

Oh your boy and I both had our fair share this season. Tho I'd be curious to go back through the results and see who had the most OFFICIAL cones (ie no dnf, no pointers, etc). Didn't he have a couple of +5s? LOL
 
Was yours an R? I just picked up an R lip to absorb a few of the cone marks instead of the body. I've always thought they should have all come with that lip. Dead sexyness.

No, it was a base model. I wanted the lightest, most basic car I could get.
I added the lip and spoiler afterwards as well as the Bilstein setup and the bigger brakes.

I never did autocross, but I had plenty of off-track excursions. No cones, just rocks, grass and the occasional track worker!

man, and if you thought bugs left a mess on your windshield! (rlaugh)


On a different note, i'm going to be one of those workers next season, so cut us some slack! lol
 
To get to the track worker, don't you normally have to go through a wall of tires or concrete? Or do you wait for one to run out to attend to another car?
