I'm having my dad fly into town that weekend to go with me. Looks like a good event.

GTS Miata 04-16-2008 07:42 PM

I'll be there on saturday, hopefully with my miata if I can do a little work on it before then.

m2cupcar 04-16-2008 09:11 PM

probably saturday, maybe sunday, neither or both. :robert: If I do make it up there, I will look for other mt.net'rs.

GTS Miata 04-18-2008 12:55 PM

I would like to see the cooper scooper if you do show up on saturday.

Ben 04-30-2008 01:45 PM

I just got the phone call... I have a ticket waiting for me at will call, courtesy of Mazda :)

In like Flynn bitches

Ben 05-02-2008 04:35 PM

So who else is going? Anyone want to meet up Sat AM and caravan in? I live right up the road from the track so I'm very familiar with the area.

Atlanta93LE 05-02-2008 04:45 PM

I'm going. Not sure whether I'm bringing the Miata or not, or what time I plan on arriving, but I'll be there.

Ben 05-02-2008 04:48 PM

Cool. I got bit by a dog this morning, right in my face, so try not to look too horrified when you see me.

Dang, wtf? You try looking for the head bolts while your face was in there?

Ben 05-02-2008 04:51 PM

No, not that dog. If that dog bit me I'd probably be dead.

m2cupcar 05-02-2008 09:03 PM

I think I'm going. Had build a filler pipe for the turbo (since the turbine housing needs to be clearanced). It works but rubs somewhere, but should get me there. Ben LE ya gotta drive the Miata- it's a Mazda weekend.

y8s 05-02-2008 09:14 PM

if it was closer to 3-4 hrs i'd drive down. but 10. no.

Ben 05-02-2008 09:17 PM

valujet bitch. oh, whoops I meant AirTran. Cuz if you crash, but change your name afterwards, people will forget.

cjernigan 05-03-2008 12:23 AM

I don't know what everyone looks like but I think you guys have seen me in one picture or another on here. I'll look for... ok i have no idea what I'll look for but I will probably be at the FM install thing so I'll look for the guy with a dog bite on his face. (I've been bitten in the face, it sucks.)
We're not leaving stockbridge till like 8 or so maybe 9 depending on when the brandy wears off.

m2cupcar 05-04-2008 12:57 AM

Just got back- hanging at the GRM pub.:friday:
Saw Ben, Scott and Mike. Didn't see Chad or Ben LE. I've got a butt load off photos including some shots of the stang that tagged the inside of the bridge wall. Will post that stuff up next week when I go thru it.

cjernigan 05-04-2008 01:12 AM

Went to dinner with Ben and Doppelganger, saw everyones cars parked together. Maybe i'll run into you tomorrow. Are you going to try and do any of the parade tour laps at 10 or w/e during the quiet hours?

Atlanta93LE 05-04-2008 07:34 AM

I was there, saw Ben. I saw Rob, but he was chatting it up with some other guys after the MX-5 cup race, so I didn't but in ;)

Ben 05-04-2008 08:13 AM

Stan was also there. And during one of the touring laps someone standing at the fence around turn 5 or so yelled my name, but I couldn't recognize them.

I sneaked my car down to the lower paddock and parked it right by the $$$ mazda race cars. :giggle:

silentbob343 05-04-2008 06:39 PM

I was there with my brother today. Took some pics of the "$$$ mazda race cars" watched a few races. Overall a good time.
