I spent several hours of my day taking and posting pics, but the thread got nixed because
I disclosed that I work for a dealer and had the info up front in the general section.
Damn MSRP for it was $34K for the AT/GT. Like I could sell it!
Anyway, someone went ape, & the thread got chunked & all my time was wasted.

If someone cares for the pics, (they aparently ain't nothing new), but I'll repost them.

I'm in need for a carton of cigarettes and some serious range time this weekend.





BTW: That video was awesome. Tx Hill country?

No major suspension change, just springs, eh?
Our car needs the chip, the breather and some exhaust first. lol.
It's just a stock Ti grey 04. It's time for a tune up.

Who has a computer diagnostic device for these cars?

Nice Z4. It reminds me of the old 240z with a bit more style.
There's a few of those around here.

Unless your physically a lemming... I mean seriously have you sat in those seats... They dont work for 90% of the people in DFW if you 1. are a male 2. aren't a teenager. My guess is the same for the rest of the country as well.

Man Boobz? Lol. I'm actually pushing the limit on RX8 stock seats.

Hey, has anyone been to a skip barber racing school class/event?
That looks like more fun than Disneyland, to me.

www.skipbarber.com

I played around with a 2009 mx5 today. Went to gas it up and
was turning left in the right hand left turn lane with a Honda sewing
machine racer to my left in the left hand left turn lane.
I beat him around the corner in the outside lane.
It kinda pissed him off.


Mx5's are WAY too small for me. I was driving 70's style off to the
right like I was wearin' a fro, tryin' not to muss my har.

I fit pretty well in the R3 seats... I'm 23, can vote, male... It's been a while since I sat in one, but I'd say I was likely 10 lbs. heavier when I did.

Yeah, I have sat in them and they are quite comfortable for me. I can understand some people not liking them though. But I look at it like this...if you are a chick that is too big to sit in my seat, I don't want you in my ride anyway.
