When you outrun Dan at Hallett, we'll consider it. Until then, go back to whoring 4chan on your linux box for 8-year old diaper-shitting asian child sex slaves. lulz

We should all pitch in to get SamNavy another Miata and ask his CO to change his duty station to the base auto hobby shop. That will restore some normalcy.

Yours seems to only be faster when you aren't driving it.

My wife would **** a brick if I told her that the only cleaning product we were allowed to use at the "house" is orange scented GOJO.

On the other hand, I've got my second look at Department Head coming up here in June... if I screen, my orders here at Pt Mugu will probably be extended by about 2.5yrs. The wife has said I can take half my last bonus check and put towards a car. That's about $8k, plus another $4k I've got squirreled away. The temptation to get an already built turbo Miata would be HUGE... then again, you can do a really nice Factory5 Cobra for around $25, and it would only take me another couple years to save up. OH, the agony of man!

But if anybody wants to take up a collection, I've got Paypal!
