Yes.. I know... but when you're bringing a passenger, and you know she'll be uncomfortable in the FD, it'll be best to bring the Miata.

Ok, I'll enforce the old rule. If the weather plays out in our favor, I'll bring the FD. If not...

A fellow rotor head is offering his estate to have a year end BBQ/sausage fest. So let us know if you are interested. Bring a chair if you can.


This is his BBQ and yes it is a Snap On:

how could there be snow with the giant smog cloud and heat from all the rx's driving around, it only snows in the winter because we all put the rx's away, then the smog/ heat leaves and the cold moves in. see i have it all figured out

Okay, so i managed to get the day off, all i'm concerned about is the route. Will we be doing a lot of highway driving, or are we going to take back roads? And I would be with a passenger.
