www.automotivetouchup.com is where I buy my VR base coat. I also have a small touch up bottle of it because you can not properly apply the OEM Mazda touch up since it has clear in it. That only works for tiny chips.

I also use red primer for larger pieces like I did for the rear aero flares. Any other color does not match well I found out.

What are you painting?

Sport6, that's awesome! I really want to go next year. How did you go about volunteering? What did you have to do?

New a friend who was in charge of assigning volunteers. Basically all I had to do was set up tape when the stages changed as my spot was used in 3 different stages and just had to move the tape to change the direction.

Then just make sure the spectators were not where they weren't supposed to be.



Here is the video I made up:

I saw zach randomly at the New England Forest Rally.

Andrew Comrie-Picard broke down at our spot and we hung out with him for that stage. Really cool guy. Gonna send some photos of his car to him.

Zach you would have yelled at us because we convinced our guy to turn the other way and hiked up the course to get some real close shots!

The pic is me and my cousin.

Was that one of the 1st gens?

Mine is larger, 0-60 in 7 seconds flat, 18-19 mpg mixed driving,

The seat bottom is a bit short so I could see that being annoying, but I have plenty of head room.

Here is the car and driver test results on it vs a few others from 06.

It was a Fors Focus with 2 flags hanging off the back.

Bleh... Just got back from the NJ race. Damned construction had traffic blocked for 2-3 hrs until Gary and I navigated a "short cut". Knocked about 1 hr from traffic and made up 45 mins for the rest of the trip.

Edit: Pics will be up tomorrow. I didn't take any while working the pits since it was a bit hectic and busy. Time seemed to have flown by too. The 2.5 hr race definitely didn't feel like it by the time it was over.

Hasn't been helping. A co-worker said "Oh hey, I have a video for you to watch." Ends up being one of those that makes you jump at the end of it. I'm wide awake now.
