Talking Hear me now...Believe me later....

Hi-Ya, Buckaroos....Wow, and welcome to you Ladies too....
Just buttoning up my Kid's second Gen...Let me slide the creeper out to greet yuh....

Whoa! There's a whole posse here....Heard yuh coming down the road...Sounded real fine. I'd shake hands with yuh, but I'm kinda dirty and greasy at the moment. Hey, come on in, welcome to the 'ol corncrib...Grab a Coke and a lawn chair....How y'all been anyways...Doing? Brake pads on this 2nd gen. Aussiesmg yer gonna love this, just mounted those sperior perfomance semi-metallic pads from Australia. Called Axxis, and made in your home country. Supposed to be best street/auto-cross pads there is...Price? Kinda steep, $75. Love those 4-piston calipers on this 2nd gen. Easy to work on too. Wish I had 'em on my SE. Wonder if a fella could do a swap?

Uh-oh, watch the Attack Cats. Yep, Flash had kitties...Careful, see they'll climb right up yer jeans and tear yuh a new one. Been a lotta funerals round here lately, but the remains are kinda scarce by the time the little guys are done. Anybody want one, you'll find they're all extremely Seven knowledgeble of course...

Hey, Suparslinc...How the Hell are yuh, guy. Thanks mucho for selling me that driveshaft...Did the trick all right. 'Ol Silver runnin' slicker than baby snot on brass doorknob....Yuh noticed, huh? Yeah, all the window trim flat black was just about gone, so I took the time to redo it all. Wipers too. Just gotta do somethin' about these wheel rims. Would love to get a set of BBS.

Yeah, y'all are right. There's a kinda chill in the air, and rumor has it that Turkey Day will be here before yuh know it....
If yuh cup yer ear and lean to the North.....Yeah, I know. Hey Jon, turn off the air compressor and turn down that damn Boom-Boom music! There, now listen....Hear it? That's right, just a slight, light tinkle right now...That's Santa's wrench-hands tunin' up the sleigh...Hear he's gone to a three-rotor for this year, and went all the way with the coil-overs...

Hey Jimmy V13, be on our way up North to your state this Saturday night. The lovely Lady and I are gonna check out the colors, do a bit of shoppin', and just in general cruise the Northern top of Michigan. Any you Northern folk want a visit drop me a message. The price of Go-Juice is certainly nice. Maybe find that 'ol abandoned air base I told y'all about....See what 'ol Silver can do....Then maybe not. That Leggy Lady sittin' Tall in the Saddle gets worried 'bout me sometimes...I can't figure out quite why? Heh, heh, heh...

What are y'all plannin' for the Winter months. I'll tell yuh, workin' in the Sears Hardware handtool/automotive section sometimes drives me nuts....Lots of neat stuff, but I gotta watch the budget. Any of yuh thinkin' of puttin' a gift list together yet? Don't wait too long, Buckaroos. Here's a neat little trick I stumbled upon some time back. Don't give yer loved ones yer list, just go out get what you want, and hand it to them to wrap. That way yuh do a mimimum of fake smilin' as you uncover keyfobs, screwdrivers with lights in 'em, little trophies proclaiming "world's greatest blah-blah," bottles of aftershave or perfume for you motor-women, and the seemingly endless inventions of "one-socket fits all," and multi-functional wrenches that will cause you to throw out your tool collection. And almost forgot, drivin' gloves, right? Almost 32 years married, oughta have learned somethin, eh?

Well, now that y'all are here, let's talk about your Winter plans for your Seven's. What can I look forward to droolin' over next time I see yuh.....

A flash of light, a cloud of dust, and a hearty....Hi-Ho, Silver! Awaaaaaaay....

A big 'ol wave of the Stetson,
Denny, from the abandoned corncrib....

Wink News-Flash!

I almost forgot...A big thanx to Max7 for bein' such a swell companion, and one Hell of a Cowboy!

Below it a secret spy picture taken in Northern Vermont. It's Mazda's 3-rotor SUV/Rally car. Supposed to challenge the WRX, Mitsu's, and Ford's Focus....Driven by that Infamous Rice-Smoker from Quebec, Black Jacque Shellac!

Get the Hell outta the woods, boys! I think I hear Thunder!

Where are you heading in Michigan? I'm over on the west side by Grand Rapids, and only about 40 minutes from Mt. Pleasant. I know at least one other Rotary guy up here.

There's not a whole lot of Mazda's pushing around here, so we have to stick together.

My 7's gettin ready for a nice long, well deserved nap. Then, god willing, in the spring she's going right to the body shop to get painted, and all the little imperfections (like the rear quarter pannel that got hit by a construction sign that musta been doing about 90 ) and then after a new set of rims and tires she's going to go back to full time terrorizing of the auto-x track, if I can get my work schedule to cooperate with my race schedule

And Denny, thanks to your suggestion, I'm now running MMO as premix and in the crankcase. We'll see how she likes that!

smokin those tires,
--matt

Hope your trip back was uneventful Denny.
I found that a good black magic marker does wonders on that window trim :p
Anyways, my car is down right now but not out; I need to get some new sensors for the radiator. Paul from up around there is going to ship some to me. Without this forum, I don't know what I'd do; its a great way to network locals, and swap parts. I think Steve is engineering something big for next labor day, so lets keep an ear out for that. G'luck finding the abandoned airstrip, see you later guy.
