Just wondering who will be there? And if so, morning or afternoon session?

I'm looking forward to it!

[matredd]

Probably be there... morning session.

[JennB]

Mike will be in the morning session, I'll be on a plane to Chicago

I'm going to try to take part in some of these next year but this year is tough. I've only been in town for one event so far this year.

And it rained. :(

Oh well. Have a safe trip to Chicago. I'm glad Mike is in the morning session. I always like to try to get pictures of him with the rear end sliding out. :)

Im signing the Z up today, BSP ftmfl.

[Otto]

[Doppelgänger]

Yeah, I don't know if I could be there all day, much respect to you Team Solo guys :D I got to pts #1 early and forgot I didn't run until the afternoon..so I was there just about the whole day and was BEAT by the time I got home. Though being at the Noice school/TnT all day wasn't bad at all...I enjoyed it.

[matredd]

Fast cars != fast drivers.

[silver280zx]

I thought it was pretty funny that after i chose my number (08) i got on and theres a guy in my class with a 71 240z with just 8. Oh the irony!

Came by this morning but couldn't stay. It was nice to meet you Andrew.
If I can get some kind of suspension under my car I will try to come out and make a few runs.

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Good fun today, not really getting the most out of my car at the moment. Absolutely no grip anywhere... I didn't have this much power last time. But hey I had a lot of fun not going straight :lol:

[silver280zx]

Yup i think everyone on allseasons were having problems with traction today. I sure was. Anyone get pictures?

[b1rider]

Lee took a lot of pics and will be uploading them later. I only got one and with my cheap camera it wasn't very good.

Nice to meet you too. And to be honest, an argument can be made for just how fun a 100% stock miata can be to autocross :)

If it was stock as in like it came from the factory I would not have a problem with it but the car has 147k on it and I swear the shocks are original. The rears bottom out with the smallest dip and the body roll is nasty in the turns. So I would at least like to get something a little fresher in there.:p

Dude, im in the background of this pic, lol

It was a lot of fun seeing everyone today. Sorry I wasn't able to come by and say hi to everyone individually, but I was pretty busy :(. I hope everyone had as much fun as I did (even if I didn't really drive as well as I could have)

Well, stock as in a fresh stock suspension. So you know, a set of shocks and maybe bushings. 147k shocks aren't so good.

****, I didn't even see you today andy!

[CaveRacing]

Here are a couple and the link to the rest. There's not many, but a few good ones.

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

No biggy, I was looking out for you a few times to no luck.

[Doppelgänger]

Good seeing all of you guys out there! The course was F A S T...I had no problem putting power down...well, for the most part, but I need wider tires :lol:
Today was def. the day for the people with the power! My best was a 47.5..which landed me 2nd (again) in SSM. I need more tire :(

I'll get the MX5Atl Challenge results up as soon as the final results from today's even gets posted :)

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Don't even come talking to me about needing more tire when you're on r-comps! I'm on freaking 195 all seasons!

[kcbhiw]

Nice to meet you too. And to be honest, an argument can be made for just how fun a 100% stock miata can be to autocross :)

There's something to be said for that. It's quite fun to return to one's roots and drive a stock Miata...bustificated shocks or not. The car out of the box is still quite good.


And yes. Today's course rocked. To further that yes...damn you muff ;) (and nice driving!).

[amaff]

To further that yes...damn you muff ;)

Hehehe... sorry about that :cry:


Ok no I'm not :lol:


Go get some fresh tires dude!
