They are a group who can appreciate cars in general and welcome anyone with any Mazda.

Sorry just saw this... There was nothing going on last night that I knew of anyway though.

There's a show on Saturday I was thinking of going to though, it's over in Clearwater.

What part of Tampa are you living in?

Center console is always hot, and the power steering is probably the harness plug they go bad.

Can't this weekend.
Hope to go to some future track events.

Curious to see what your car does in the 1/4 mile.
Any plans to hit the track yet?
