First of all, I had a great day out there with everyone. And I am genuinely proud of this community, I had no idea 5 months ago when this place was a small self-hosted freebie forum that it could end up creating something like this.

I hope I got everyone's cars but I wouldn't be surprised if I missed a couple, seen as there were so many cars today but hopefully someone else can chime in with their shots.

:( No shots of the g/f's freshly rebuilt '00. :lol:

It was a great turnout and a great event! Thomas even mentioned letting us crazies come back again. :D We have a lot to be proud of in this community! It can only keep getting better! Thanks to everyone that came out!

That's my buddy Kris' car. We'll be taking some detailed pictures soon as he just installed a set of H&R springs today and it made the car look a ton better without the 4x4 effect. :D

Here's a shot from December right after we picked up his hardtop:

damn man i wanted a white miata soooooooooooo bad omgsh for some reason it just looks like a totally diffrent car in white, or maybe im crazy. but yea man that is definetly nice, is it on works? moar pictures please!!!

RotorNutFD3S
01-31-2009, 11:07 PM
I agree that white makes the NBs look different, black does too in it's own way. A hardtop will change the whole profile of the car too. No, those are the Drag wheels. We'll have some more pictures soon, I'm sure now that it's lowered we'll be heading back to our photoshoot spot.

I had a great time today meeting everybody. I wish that I could have stayed longer, But my wife had other plans for me.

I do have a suggestion that may help all of us out. Maybe some member of the club could come up with some sort of name tag for each member to wear. This "tag" could contain such things as name, user name, home city, & maybe even a picture of their car. These tags could help some of us folks put a face with a name with a car. I know that this would help some (ME).

RotorNutFD3S
01-31-2009, 11:09 PM
:lol: Funny you mention the name tag thing, a few of us were having that discussion today as well. It is definitely a good idea for the larger meets like the one today, maybe not so much for the smaller meets because it's usually the same people always in attendance, but something we can definitely look into.

Thankfully I didn't have everything I needed to do mine, so I aborted that plan pretty quick... did change out my CAI filter though... (seen in last pic of post #1)

I had a good time as well, glad I could share my car with you guys. I think the total "rides" given was 11 or 12, haha.

Jack-MX5ATLanta.com
02-01-2009, 11:14 AM
We should have a LS1 ride along tech day where we all bring a few bucks and get rides. :lol: But seriously, that thing has completely changed my perception of what Miata's can do.

Looks like a nice turnout, def. a growing site. Props to Jack. I would have went but had to have my own tech day here.
