What he said! What's your name and I'll add you to the group(it's set as private). We're a welcoming bunch of miata enthusiasts.
That's awesome, I've been wanting to find a Miata group to get involved with for a while now. The downside is I rarely use Facebook. 99.9% of my facebook use is spent browsing the marketplace. lol If it means finding some local Miata enthusiasts, I can start using it more though! Jacob Bullard is my name. (Red NA in my profile pic)

Also, I've lived in Knoxville all my life. I only bought my Miata a little over a year ago.

I got my second CB working (needed a lighter plug and another antenna). Not looking forward to cell phone blackout, haha.

This is the offline map program I used last year. Just load the map for the states that you need, and not ones you don't.

Starting Thursday evening I will be in and around cabin 660 or out driving. I will be distributing Miataturbo.net decals, so come ask about them. I will also try to keep some in my car so hit me up for them because I won't remember. 96 faded Montego blue with peeling clear coat and a bright blue hardtop. Has turbo Kitty decals on the side corners of the hardtop window. Listen for the rattles.

Also monitoring CB channel 21.

We're going to be in cabin 507, right next to the action/car show parking lot.
​​​​​​
We're in Wyethville a little more than half way. Maybe a conservative 4 hours till we arrive.

Yes, I love that place. I'll try to look it up. We should be in by 2 or 3 p.m. so we could drive over together.

Heads up. It might be closed today. Rolled by to scope it out and it says closed for an event, but it was desolate.

My bad. We misinterpreted where we were meeting. But I'm writing this as we are sitting at the same table.
