I know Rich, he is a really nice guy. He and my dad were in the Northcoast Miata club together way back when. I had my Miata in his shop about 2-3 weeks ago too.

Yea, I saw a bunch of Miata club stuff all over the office. My buddy was telling me how he was a super bad ass driver back in the day too!
Anything to keep my mind of getting chub...
More details?
So... the most interesting vehicle to be in the driveway has arrived. 1984 Land Rover 110. Diesel, RHD, right from England...
As the saying goes "pics or it didn't happen". Sounds interesting though. Wish we were free today/this weekend, I would have liked to make it up there for some wrenching and what not.
Well, the Nelson Ledges track weekend hasn't gone the smoothest. Yesterday at 8:00pm after I loaded the trailer and all my gear I noticed that the welds on my trailer hitch were cracking and starting to separate.
Get to the track this morning and realize that in my haste last night getting the car ready to drive to the track I cross-threaded a lug nut resulting in a broken wheel stud. A quick trip to Advance Auto Parts and I should be able to make my second session. I almost done even feel like driving now!

Famous last words! Although from the sound of some of your posts for the past like 2 or 3 months I truely believe that you would not mod it.
I personally don't know any Mazda specific shops. But like Phen said, what are you looking to do? Rebuild the whole motor or just a timing belt/water pump kind of deal?
If it was completely stock I'd leave it alone. Nothing major like what I'm doing now.
Finally got a chance to be in the garage again the past 2 days, I have a little more cutting to make 1 pipe fit by the radiator, then a vac line from the bov and I should be able to crank it over to make sure everything is working properly. Then it's just reassemble everything and the major stuff will be done and be drivable. Everything else I have planned is just little stuff like brake painting the rear calipers, and changing the pads and rotors; hood struts; and other things like that.
Yes, there is a NASA event July 15-17 at MidOhio.
