More upgrade!


Just a quick note, as I'm exhausted today...


Finally put the suspension on "GoGo" and now she sits just right, I'm looking forward to driving her next week!

I also got to have a Kobe Burger at the Wooden Nickel yesterday. They rarely have them so I had to get one. If you're in the area, or visiting, I highly recommend the place in general, but especially the Kobe burger!

Upgrade!


Finally, after 70 days of long, arduous and sometimes stressful waiting, they have arrived!!

Thankfully they came in without a scratch despite their journey half way across the globe. I also managed to get a new radio and some gauges in while I was at it.

Next step is some suspension! Then she will be done for a bit as I save up for the turbo!

Back (on task)


-Got back from the insane travel schedule last week, zombied through work and slept until 9:30am on Saturday. This might not sound like an accomplishment, but for me anything past 7:00am is worthy of note! I managed to get a dog run put up for sadie this weekend, cut the grass and put up a new light fixture too.

The next big item on my list is to get the Gymkhana setup for Greenville at the end of September. We've pretty much got it figured out but there are a few details to iron out. It should be pretty interesting and intense. We hope to drum up a lot of interest for this type of thing in North Carolina, so time will tell...

To the left is a sample of the course lay out!

from the grey market of Thailand....

To U.S. for my Japanese car...

Today I received a new toy to match my red and black personal steering wheel in the Miata. I bought it from a gentleman in Thailand strangely enough, and while its probably not a licensed Mazda product, the retro emblem, glitter and the fact that it was $15 instead of $60 like the personal ones, made up my mind.

So, without further adieu...
