About a month ago I went to Texas for a week and I met with a bunch of miata people and the whole time I've owned a miata in CT (5 yrs) I've only met two guys (Vash and Rain). I feel like us northeast guys should be more outgoing. So I was thinking let's have a ******* meet already! we could meet maybe around New Haven and take route 1 all the way up to the casino or something similar. It's a nice curvy road with lots of shade. Let's do it! I was thinking Oct 3rd. That way people would have a month to finish their cars and make it a plan. Let me know guy! Stop being so new England grumps and let's go for a ride. Any other ideas are cool as well

 

Im in. Im up in the Keene area.

 

Alright Kool. I wanna get at least 10 ppl to come

 

Cool dude, now I have a deadline to get this ****** on the road already.

I've been without mine so long now that I cant wait for just the drive to and from the shop everyday! lol

 

awesome. I need some time to get my car back together tho. its running finally, but with a massive oil leak so I have to fix that soon. Oct. 3rd sounds great tho.

I will spread the word!!

 

I gotta get my car running right too that's why I gave a little over a month so everyone has time to get the cars ready

 

This was kind of short lived... I think it's a good idea. I'll be back in NY in time for winter.. but if some people want to get together this spring that would be awesome. I will to drive just about anywhere.

Maybe in the more distant future we could try and do a meet a little bit further south and see if we can pull in some people from IL, OH, VA, PA etc.. maybe get like 20-30 people total and make a weekend out of it.

 

I think thats a good idea. Not a ton of boosted miatas in CT....thats for sure.

****....I'm just hoping that my car is on the road by Oct.

 

I will be renting a warehouse for working on my miata.. it's not huge, can fit 3-4 cars. I have a ton of tools.. if anyone needs to do some work and needs space/tools let me know, although I'm pretty far from anyone I think (Watertown/Syracuse area). I will have a badass space heater for the winter months too!

 

Dude, you will need it up there, probably starting now, in fact!

Thanks for your service, btw.

 

Haha, don't remind me! For some reason I keep thinking I'm going to return to some warm and sunny place... I guess it's better than winter in Afghanistan, pretty much everything beats sitting on top of a mountain during a blizzard.

 

I would be down for a meet in CT this October.

 

That would be great! Thanks and watertown it's not too far from most of us. It's about 30 min from me and I'm next to new haven

 

Btw how's everyone with time? 2 weeks away. You guys still down? 240 did you get your oil leak fixed? Vash is ur 80 year build done yet? Hehe

 

my **** is still leaking. oil isnt too bad but coolant is. Its a simple fix, its the water pump inlet. I should get around to it soon. I am still driving it around once in a while and doing some tuning.

I am free the weekend of the 3rd. The following weekend I am dynoing the car with the Uconn Car club i run. I am also free the weekend of the 17th. Dependinig on the cars condition i might not want to go too far.

 

Alright we gotta think of a place to meet up

 

i will most likely be leaving from tolland ct (uconn area)

 

I've been giving the bodyshop guy **** everyday so he's been working on it. I hope to have it finished by the weekend if he can handle working on it for more than 1 hour a week.

I feel like its been so long and everything is changed now that its gonna be a completely different car. I'm excited as ****, but still a little numb about it seeing there's still much to do.

Hopefully I'll be ready by the 3rd. If not I'm down to get up whenever.....I just need a car. lol

 

That's awesome! Glad there are some Miata guys around me. I will be living in there on the weekends pretty much lol, so open invitation to anyone that needs to get some work done. I will be home by December.

 

Are any of you guys going to the cruise event thing on Oct 3rd at Modern Motors Mazda in Thomaston CT?
