We are sending email invitations to all the expanded-area Miata Clubs. If you

at Hallett Motor Racing Circuit. If they have questions about the event give

Looking forward to another great field of Miata enthusiasts throughout the

Thank you,

This is a really fun event. Last year the turnout was low (me included -- I was in Europe). Would be nice to get participation up. Connie always gives us one of the year's prime weekends -- first breath of Fall weather.

Can't lie, with the mandatory overtime and no vacation approvals at work...I haven't thought about Hallett since the last time I posted here. So sad.
Kinda looks like it's not in the cards for me this year...wife needs another car and also just started a new job so she won't be getting paid for about 2 months. 48 people isn't very many and I'd like to add to that number. I'll make some calls and check some stuff out to see what I can do, it was really fun and I'd like to do it again this year.
At a minimum, I'll need new front pads and rotors, brake fluid swap, tech inspection.
It sucks that I won't get my Bell helmet in time even though it was bought 3 months ago and my Necksgen won't be here by then either. Renting a helmet after I have already paid for a SA2015 helmet is pretty crappy.

Sounds like a plan!
How long does tire rack take to ship tires? Thinking of picking up a set of RS3s or maybe Rival S. My tires are a couple years old and the rears in particular probably won't handle a couple days at the track and still be usable on the street. They are down to just over 3/32.

I signed up for Friday and Saturday and got the hotel booked!
OG Racing told me that since my helmet won't arrive in time, they will reimburse me for my rental helmet. Awesome customer service!
On the other hand, im really starting to dislike 16" wheels. I don't think I can get the 15" wheels I want in time. Made some calls and it's not looking good unless I pay hundreds in shipping. Poor planning on my part...

It runs all day, like 8-4 I think.
Dustin, wheel/tire packages from TireRack are pretty sweet. They show up balanced and ready to bolt on! They have lightweight Enkeis, Advantis and Konigs. They don't have 6ULs though.
I'm planning to take my wet tires with me as well. 225 RS3V2s mounted on 15x9 Advanti Storm S1s. A bit long in the tooth (Spring 2015), but if you get in a pinch . . . . I "think" these will work on your car without fender rolling.

According to tire rack, the 15x9 Advanti Storms with 225/45/R15 tires will fit an NB without mods. 
I'll find out for sure next Wednesday, I ordered a set in matte gray! Why matte gray? Because they were the only ones I could get in time!
I think it's going to look hilarious at stock ride height. I also think my bumpstops are going to hate life lol
