Ok, so who all's getting there @ 10:00? Do y'all want to meet up somewhere? As far as I remember, Luke, Scott and Myself...any1 else?
only problem there is you'll be coming from the south, us from the north, we'll use different exits. I am thinking about getting there around 9 so I can see Wayne running around. but if we can come to a conclusion on where to meet at i am game. luke knows that area better than me.
 
I was thinking of just metting up at the Speedway somwere. I've never been there, so y'all tell me what a good place would be

Dirty russians...They actually stole a FIAT plant (like, took it over) to make those. They were FIAT 125's w/ crappy worksmanship lol. But ya, ur probably right. Or at least very few ppl. I grew up in JA, that's the only reason I know of them
You grew up in JA? Really? No s***?
Yo, we'll chat up in ATL then.
Scott link me tonight and send me directions to your house, my friend will be meeting me around 7 or 8 and we'll be driving up there then...s*** I forgot about CST/EST...hmmm, well send me your addy over YIM & I'll let you know tomorrow evening if we'll be able to make it up there earliy enough on Sat to meet up w/you at your place or not.
Oh yeah, got The Panda back just now....running like a champ...but throwing a CEL...Scantool points to a fouled O2 sensor...so if anyone knows where I can get one cheap or if any of you guys/gals have a spare one laying around *rolls eyes*, lemme know. Mazda wants about $200 for each (the one befor the cat is like $19x & the one after is like $2xx).
Thanks folks!

No s***. Between MoBay and Hopewell, just barely in St. James (like <1mile from the Great river). My family's still down there actually.
 
ahh.. I guess I'll have to miss this event...
It doesn't matter much, I doubt I would've gotten to drive the new mx-5 anyways..
I'll be laying rubber in Summerville, GA.. :)

this isnt anywhere near the best corners there..
it's like a local Dragon's Tail... but longer.... it goes on for miles and miles..
even better... my friend's uncle is the only local cop and he'll dismiss us of everything as long as there's no traffic.
(pics from my friend's 330i)

ehh... excuse my ramblings...

That roxx!!! We need to set up a run through there, w/ u and ur friend running point of course lol. Looks fun tho. I haven't really gotten to unwind the P5 on any cool roads yet (auto-x doesn't count), and I've kinda been wanting to

No kidding....I still have fam down on Jamrock too. Dad lives in Kingston, rest of the fam spread out around St Mary & Mobay. Actually going back mid-December. My Dad wanted me to go down there for Rally Jamaica, but it's the first weekend of Dec. :(
We''l catch up this weekend....BOT!
Chris...that looks like it would be fun...but HOW OFTEN can you do Zoom Zoom Live? You could go do that road anytime...*sigh* kids.

Once a year if I was 18...
 
I thought you were going to be 18?
Baaah, you could still show up...it's like a mini-meet. How often do you guys/gals get to see me? Not very often...let alone...Matty will be there...there's bound to be humor.
'Nuff said.
 
I was but the chance of burning up so much gas only to realize that I wouldn't be able to drive the course doesn't seem worth it...
I'll save the dosage of matty for the 5th of nov at chollies party.
 
I edited my previous post. I am a Mazda3club.com person. and had registered on Clubprotege which i had confused with this group. Sorry *grin*
 
Good times good times. The new MX-5 is nice, very nice. Not nice enough though to justify getting a new one IMHO. I'd rather have an old one with lots o BOOST!

Finally drove a 3 and it was cool but no Proteg. :)

Ragging the RX-8 was very sweet.

Luke got his ticket clipped from spinning the MX-5.

All in all a very cool event. Much better than the Lexus event I just finished. (Said hi to Scott's wife though.) Drove the IS350 though which was pretty sweet. Then I made my dad cuss for the first time I ever remember (they had a M-B E500 there as a "competitor" car, my bro was riding shotgun and figured out how to turn off the traction control, my dad was in the backseat and I autocrossed the hell out of it sideways :D).

That's what I did all day today and it was totally worth blowing off the Zoom Zoom event. I've NEVER had as much fun at an auto-x as I did at today's Mirrorkhana :D.

Sounds kickass Kevin-- sorry I had to choose b/n the two!

I wish I could have seen Luke's wipe out. Word spread from one event to the other :D.
 
I got yelled at by my RX-8 "instructor" after you guys ran.

I did have alot of fun flogging the new MX-5. 42.9 secs baby! We were going to drive it some more but the lines started getting pretty long so we were out at about 11:30ish.

See you guys tomorrow at the AX, if you're there. ;)
