Congrats and good luck.
Our team is assembled and we should be hitting the October race in Houston.
Want to campaign a Miata regardless of penalties, just don't want to be a possible victim of the "Curse".
Cheers and we'll be watching closely......

I don't expect to see many more miatas. They're probably going to get banned because they're not fair in a $500 car race.

I just don't see why? The cars are coming up on 20 years of age and anything from the north is rusted through. The older cars leak and rust from the inside out. There a dime a dozen. There under powered. And most of all there at all the the LeMons races and don't always place!

because miatas aren't fair. They're always the fastest cars on the track...they don't belong out there.

There, their, they're.

You've been speaking English for how long now? And you still don't grasp the difference?

Fair enough....I'll give you that.
It's St. Patty's day.....go have a beer or two. You need to get "crunk" so it'll kill that bug that crawled up your A**.

Well here is our aero package. Think we now have and advantage? The headlights pop up when you hit the brakes for that "active aero" stopping advantage.

I LOL'ed at the "active aero" headlight braking system. That's just awesome. You did set up the "engines" such that the inlet cones move in and out depending upon speed, right?
