I'm going on a test run tonight and checking it out. I might shorten it up so we all can make it to Corksport when the fesivities start
 
Drive Cancelled

Man sorry folks but due to the lack of people who wanted to show up I'm going to call the drive off but I AM GOING TO CORKSPORT. Anybody in the Portland Metro area want to meet and drive up there ?
 
Yeah I just realized that I work Friday night anyways, so I don't get off until 8am Saturday morning. Just enought time to wash the car and run up to CS. I miss being able to go to the Carriage House, they do such a great job, but the coil overs prevent that. I suppose I could just go there, raise the car, then drop it back down when I'm done. How f'ed up is that, I'd rather adjust ride height than wash my own car...

We do need to plan a trip, I'm thinking to the Vista House in the Columbia Gorge. That would make for some great pics. Boring drive, but good scenery. Or maybe caravan down to Evergreen Aviation Museum, they have one of only 9 flying ME-109s in the world, and oh yeah, that Spruce Goose thing as well. Oregon Caves is cool too, or the Oregon Coast Aquarium.

I like road trips, but I need something more than just driving in a circle.

That is actually pretty bad. I can't wait to check out the coil overs if you are coming by on Sat though.
I'm still up for a good drive with some fellow Mazdas when ever possible.
 
I'll be there...

My car is dirty as all heck, camping last weekend on a dirt road then rain.... awesome.

I should leave it. I gotz no one to impress.
 
Sorry I missed this, I actually was on my way home from work and typically take the Southbound Cornelious Pass Road exit at @60 (posted 25 suggested speed) and blew my left rear tire (they pulled a 3" framing nail out of it) which spun me off the exit ramp into the bushes and dirt/gravel. Car dug in pretty deep. So I was at Les Schwab all day. they had to dismount all my tires to remove gravel that had embedded itself in the bead between the tires and rims. The car is a mess cause I had all my windows down at the time, gravel is still falling out of recesses in the body as I drive down the road! So anyways, my Team Dynamics are definitely not show wheels anymore, they are scratched all to hell. My alignment which was just done a few weeks ago is all jacked up now, they didn't have time to fix it, so it'll go back on Monday.

So maybe next time?
