Default n00b Checkin' in...

Hey guys....My name is Bill Janczewski, I'm 29yo, married with 2 kids and stationed at Little Rock AFB in Arkansas. Been in the USAF for 11.5yrs now. I'm new to the site, but not to the Miata world. I previously owned a '94 that I used for AutoX toy and did the occasional recreational drifting when I needed a stress relief. Earlier this year, I moved to Alaska and was forced to sell her. Well, long story short, I'm back from AK and am now living in Arkansas, again. Since my return, I recently purchased a '99 Miata Sport and it's pretty much stock except for the HDS Roll bar.
I'm looking forward to modding it and setting her up the way I want her. I got some pretty big plans for her, but it's all over the next few years. Anywho, I'm looking forward to learning alot from here...We'll be seeing ya's around the board!

Welcome!! be sure to use the search function to answer some of your questions, but if you still cant find what you're looking for then feel free to chime up. The guys/gals on this board are really friendly, unlike most the losers over at *****.net. anyways, ill stop the flaming.

Planning on turbocharging?

and that last name hurts my brain. hehe. Congrats on the military time, my father just retired (21 yrs., Army (USNORTHCOM)) a few months ago. i plan on joining USAF around Jan. of 2008. How is the service treating you? what job field?

Nope, can honestly say that I never have been.

Yep, I'm doing wheels, tires, brakes and suspension this year, '07. Then doing a turbo kit next December.
My last name is pronounced Jan-chess-key. Everybody slaughters it, so it's nothing new to me.
The AF is great! I wouldn't trade it for anything! I'm a Firefighter/Station Captain. Just made E-6 (Technical Sgt)

Yep, was only there from April to September of this year. We were supposed to be there for 4 years, but unforseen medical circumstances with our newborn coupled with the fact that the required medical services were unavailable in the entire state led us back to the great state of Arkansas and Arkansas Childrens Hospital.

What color is it? I met a guy this past weekend with a mid 90's Hatch, it was White with a gutted interior and CF hood and hatch.
