Was that you pulling out of the Best Buy parking lot on Cedar Hills Blvd this afternoon? I was driving my Dakota Quad cab, but if it was you, your car looks great!

I think I saw you on saturday on 170th Vega. I was with my ex-gf and I was telling her how rare of a car the MSP was and then all of a sudden you drove by and she pointed out a orange msp with black wheels and that made me look like an ass cuz she thought I was jus trying to brag about how cool my car was.
 
I saw one of you guys saturday in the best buy parking lot. One of these days if i can catch up to u, i'll try to say hi =)

Nope wasn't me. I was playing nurse to my sick wife and hanging out with my kid all weekend . I was there the weekend before it though. If you guys can make the May 13th Mazda meet up on Mt St helens I'll be there.

I have a house on 170th, my wife and I bought, I live over off Cornelius Pass Road. But I have been over there a lot lately cutting down trees and painting and stuff for her.

I was in the Best Buy parking lot, I think it was Thursday or Friday, I was going to Starbucks. No, wait it was Saturday but it was just afternoon I think. I just got my AFC installed and spent and hour soaking up water from under the pass. carpet (1/2" deep. Can't find the leak, might be the heater core again.) But the AFC is great except for the idle probs that hopefully will be cured tomorrow.

505 I didn't see you, that is weird. I did have a yellow MSP with a young blonde driving it pull up next to me and tease me for a mile or two, but she went South, and I had to come to work.

Ninja, what are you driving now?

I will check my schedule to see if I can go to the meet, I haven't been up there for years. That would mean I'd have to wash my car though...something I haven't done in at least six weeks.

My excuse? worked 13 12 hour shifts in the last 14 days. So I will be a happy boy come this Friday!

I bought a Silver MSP about 2 weeks ago. I think I have the 13th off and hope to make it to the st. helens thing.
 
its funny how we all live so close to each other but then never see each other on the road except on rare occasions.

Cool. I'm still trying to figure out a good meeting place,I'm thinking of Portland Meadows parking lot

maybe we should have a small meet somewhere around town. Hooters anyone?
 
Not my kind of thing, but I would be up for hooking up with Ghost at Sykart one of these Thursday nights.

Maybe a get together after one of the autocrosses. April 23rd Stock and Street Touring run in the morning, could do lunch after that.

As far as the Mt. St. Helens thing goes, I though it was in April for some reason. I will just request it off, so I'll go for that. Maybe my Brother will come and bring his Mazda 3.

Oh a 3i .Are those ADR M SPORT rims? Look just like mine.... Yes both of you come along. More the merrier and that goes for all of you guys.
 
Yeah he does, he did really well last year in it, but the first event this year he placed fifth, but the car is stock except for Eibachs. He has swaybars on the way now.

He has different wheels on it now, some kind of TSW for the street, he uses the ADRs for the track only.

What sway bars or I should say who's ? I have Racing Beats on and if you guys make it to the May 13th meet and take it for a little spin to see how it handles and rides
 
hmmm is that the same guy who did rallycross too? like in an old school Toyota Corona or cresida?

Yeah he has a 76 Toyota Corona that is all riced out. But it has 13" Wilwoods, Racing BEat Miata swaybars, Bilsteins, custom trailing arms and a bunch of other cool suspension tricks. We are putting a 1JZMTE (is that right? 87-88 Supra turbo) in it with the five speed soon.

I'm in the process of moving back to SW this month. The new place is probably a 5 min drive from Sykart.

Yeah, we should have a meet. Something smaller and localer (I don't think that's a word). I'm hoping that St. Helens thing will be cool and have a nice turn out. This area is just so freakin weak for this kind of thing.

I wish I had a house w/ garage so we could do install meets. Speaking of.... It's brake day. :-D
 
I can't remember... did you end up moving near where you work? Or are you still in the Portland area?

I have a stereo system to install and need to build an amp rack here in the coming months too.
