is everyone going to the drive -and- button next weekend? or is it only one or the other?

 

I think it's pretty much one or the other. Between the drive, the trackday, and the autocross, I think everyone has a driving event to attend this coming weekend.

 

Who's interested in the drive on Saturday?

 

count me in liyan

 

i thought you were too scared to go drive again allen lol and aren't you going on sunday anyways?

 

Beh. I just got laid off. On the bright side, at least I get a long vacation.

 

ugh...that sucks...you were saying how you were worried about your company yesterday too...

 

aww man... sorry to hear that liyan.

but, i think you got the right attitude.... in life, every so often, we all need a break from work. VACATION TIME!

the economy is really, very bad. my cousin's been sitting at home with mandatory unpaid holidays from his work too. sometimes, i daydream that i'll get laid off so i can sleep in, play video games, and basically enjoy life for a while. LOL. (no such luck yet.)

well, hang in there man. just take it in stride. things will get better.

 

p.s. this weekend's forecast is RAIN, RAIN, and more RAIN...

are the canyon run & button both still on- despite the rain? i think for the canyon run we should definitely postpone if it's going to rain.

 

well my engine is gone. hopefully i will be covered under the warranty despite me being in the mazdaspeed program

 

you serious?
what happened?

 

Right now it seems like Friday and Saturday will be dry. I'll keep an eye on conditions and will possibly postpone.

 

oh no... what happened kelvin?

 

i was driving back from class.. rev'd up to 6k rpm and then the motor made a funny sound and just shut off. took it to JRX and they confirmed that my motor is blown.

 

^ o..thats suck
u towed it all the way from SD?
did you take it to dealer yet?

 

yeah i towed it 112 miles... lol

 

aww man, that suxors... r u going to take it to alhambra mazda or sierra mazda Kelv? where did Ryan get his motor replaced at?

i think AAA has unlimited towing if you're a premiere member. i think it costs approx $150/ year vs. the regular membership which is around half of that.

 

@Liyan sorrie to hear about the laid off but yea keep up the good attitude about it

@Kelvin hopefully your warranty covers it...

 

I'm going to scout the roads tomorrow and make a decision on weather Saturday is a go or no go. It should be dry Saturday, but I know previous day conditions can have a big impact. Stayed tuned.

 

kelvin what kind of sound id it make? was it a metallic rattling?

 

80% chance that the drive is being postponed to the 31st.

 

so there's more to the story...

well that rly sux. whats gonna happen 2 u on sun? whats ur options, are u still goin?

Boa: (thinking on the back of his mind) damn premix'd pos mazdas...knew i shoulda got a honda.

i hope u can get things taken care of for ur car. honestly

 

even if he had a honda he could of blown the motor too !! *cough*Ap1*cough*
