I'm down in NW St Johns County (Julington Creek). I've got a T25 I'm in the process of installing and I just got my MS1 up and running. Nice to meet another local. There's also a guy from here building a $2008 GRM Challenge car that is up your way I think. I still need to introduce myself to him as well.

Thanks for the welcome guys. I'd like to get to know a few guys in town with miatas that could possibly be of some soon. My buddy is selling me a haltech e6k for $200 and I'm not a huge computer guy

There's a pretty good following. You're guaranteed to see a few of my Jax Miata buddies out at Whitehouse for the autocrosses.

Beware the red '96 driven by the grey-haired older gentlemen. He totally went on FM's site, ticked all of the boxes for the engine build, and ordered it, then threw on an Ubercharger and a 17 psi pulley. Car is SCREAMING fast, to date probably the loudest Miata I've ever been in.

I'm more of a straight line street fun guy coming from camaros and gtos but this being my first good handling car I'd like to take it to a few road courses for fun

Any of you guys ever meet up? I registered on the local miata forum but as far as I can tell it's a bunch of older guys with not much ambition to go fast

I'm married with a 1 year old so finding time to meet up can be tough. Still, let me know when you meet up and I'll try and make it.
Just FYI, I saw on another Mazda forum (mazdas247) that they meet up at various places on Thursday nights in case anyone wants to join them. Linky here:
