That's good news!

Now a small bit of bad: I was flushing my brake fluid and discovered that my front passenger side bleed valve no longer works. Anyone happen to have any front bleed valves locally or know where to get some that fit and don't suck? Im sure its simple and i could order some from Mcmaster, but I don't have time for that anymore and the fact that these hold in brake pressure makes me very cautious of going to Auto Zone or similar and getting unknown quality.

How does a bleed valve fail anyways? My car was missing 3/4 of the rubber caps for the bleed valves when I bought it. Maybe that did it.

I'm super excited to see some sick miatas. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to take a ride in a boosted one!

Glad you made it out. You're coming back next year and driving, right?

There is a possibility that is true.
Passenger side front hub and bearing seem fine, haven't checked any others. Both front rotors cracked during the final session, no more $30 blanks for me. Brake ducts and hubs are up before the next event.

Fast lap from Saturday
