hey from rockville
 

My name is Mike, i drive a 1995 montigo blue miata, i joined this forum a while ago but havent really been active untill now, i have been looking into going turbo, now that i have a job and will actually have money to do so haha. If your on clubroadster you might have seen my car a little bit and possibly if you live in the rockville md area. I am building my car to be a track car, i hope to do some hpde's soon, but right now i have gotten into drifting i have done about 18 drift events, and have been slowly modding and tinkering around with my car, and i feel that im almost ready for some more power, i have heard this place was full of information hopefully i can meet some people in the md va area and maybe check out some cars and talk turbo stuff haha... anyways onto some pics of the car haha, sorry i have a crappy camera so all the pics of my car are from track photo guys

Welcome to the forum, I work on rockville pike sometimes near the white flint metro :)

Nice ride!

I think I've seen you on I270 here and there. Always up to meet another member that is local and share knowledge.

Lemme know if you want to meet over by Kentlands or Rio some evening to compare notes.
