what did I tell you.

And ps my miata was faster than matt's turbo (j/k)

Yes the Shell station had contaminated gas. I passed the info along to Bryce after I found out that a Mcoupe, a Elise, several miatas and other cars had gotten the gas :(

GD that wasn't an auto-x course, that was the Freightliner driver training test site. i only get a two or three ft between cones.

Is he sending the car to a professional specialty shop (read: BEGi) on their dime? I'd want the entire fuel system replaced.

He had it fixed locally. I think the gas station is going to end up paying for the repairs.
