You sonofabitch, take some time off from work and come to the car show. I may drive my miata...are you guys going to enter the car show or just drive to see it?

Haha we are trying to get our machine ready for a trade show in chicago. It ships out this week so we are scrambling to get everything done. After this week I should go back to normal hours.

I might still take sunday off and go.

You should just take a brake from working and come out. No need to loose out on overtime pay.

I am planning on getting there around noon...maybe a bit earlier depending on traffic and wife.

ill enter my miata then. the only bad part on the car is the driver side back rim. its got brake dust build up on it and that **** is ridiculously hard to get off. ive been using rim cleaner on it and it still wont come off.

Sweet, I won't be due to my car being more of a driving car vs looking at it car (ie my car looks like ****).

Perhaps I'll see yous guys there tomorrow.

i had a decent time. it was a lot of junk there but there was some nice cars. i was surprised at how many people where impressed with the tubro miatas. it was almost like doing such a thing was unheard of. It was also nice to put some faces to the names on here.
