I can make 10am on Sunday; just gotta be heading to work around 4:25 or so. I'm looking forward to meeting those I have not seen yet! Also, how late do you think the events will go on Monday? I have to work then as well.

The races have been running to about 5pm or so, but you can leave anytime you want if you're not driving. When you get there you'll see what I mean. Just turn in like you're going to Gateway, make a left, go past the guard, go past the track entrance, sign the waiver, hang a right, go towards the stands, make a left, and there we are!

Well, since I'm one week single I can think of something else.

Sunday would be a good day to celebrate the birthday....after the garage stuff. We've got to do something and Monday is fortunately a holiday.

That was only half a joke. I figure a nice Italian girl might be what I need right now.

Hmmm... tempting. But still rather odd you'd offer up your mom.

Might as well capitalize and be the best pimp I can be!

Be, all that you can be, with an ugly wife and a messed up life in the ARMY!

Waterlogged.............One week single??? Do you still have your stuff or was it stolen. If you still have your stuff then you had a better break up than me. And I agree with Phil consider his mom .........since you like older women. If Phil can take his eye out there is no telling what his mom can do. Just kidding. Wish I could join you guys on Sunday. I am looking to possibly visit in a couple of weeks. So no excuses when I visit we are all getting together. Oh and leave the magnums at home.

To those of you with the broken tab at the base of your E-brake lever (terrets & fisherdn at least, I think), I found the TSB for it:

As long as you're still under warranty, I am sure you can get that thing fixed if you wanted.

I think everyone here is under warranty... except me as of yesterday. Anyone have a small, good gas mileage car they'd like to sell me?!

On the E-Brake tab...I had that issue, but got it fixed within the first year of owning. They covered it because I bitched until they did. By the way, your warranty is only good bumper-to-bumper to 50,000 miles. The 60,000 mile extended warranty is only on the drive train. Just found out this morning. And those recalls I was going in for...well, they aren't recalls, they are "bulletins". Which are not covered under warranty since they are not issues with replacing parts, just computer issues. Thanks Mazda!

Yeah BBG they did that after the engine compression trouble they had where they had to replace some engines. Then they screwed up and basically told dealers not to worry about pleasing rx8 owners in an internal webcast, and someone from the forum posted it! After that they extended powertrain to 60k to try and appease some of us.

I am glad you reminded me of this though cause I'm at 45! Better figure out if I can get anything else fixed soon. I really don't give a crap about my little parking brake tab being broken though... seems trivial to me unless it actually causes a problem.

You've got to stick it to Mazda for everything you can like they do to us.

Yeah...I want to know how close I was to getting a trophy. Closer and closer each race. I can almost taste what I'm going to drink from my first trophy already.
