I just stuffed my belly and can`t get up from my computer chair. OUCH!!!! pepto bismol anyone? I feel something traveling down my poopchute.

Well you can have a clean street/track car.

My car isnt in the best of shape but i do my very best by maintaining it. I cant stand a poorly treated car.

Even to this day people cant believe my car is all original from 1993. No repaint, no body work etc. One toll booth lady on the turnpike couldnt believe my car was a 93 actually. After i told her it was a mazda rx7, she was like, "those mazda people keep making cars that look more and more exotic looking". Or something like that and when i told her it was a 93, she was like, "whaaaaaaaaa?!??!" lol

Wow, what a weekend. I ate the equivalent of one pie. We had chocolate cream, apple, cherry (which the resident DOG decided to have a sampling of!). We made our own whipped cream. Mind you, w/o a blender. Just some heavy cream, sugar, and a lot of "wrist action". I ate at least a lb. of turkey/ham combined. I did NOT drive my FD, for fear of all the BS going on and retards on the road. At least I got my FD a few early Xmas presents, new coil packs, coil harness, plugs, plug wires, and a day of Autocross I'm thankful to have such a fun, unique car!

I am not going to let it fall apart but i am not going to stress over it like i use to. I am going to leave it stock looking but i will spend my money on the drive train and engine.

Hope all is well for everyone on this day of Thanks. We are blessed to live in this free land that is America and to enjoy our hobbies as free men and women.

God bless you all, and God bless the United States of America!

Now it's time to take my dad for a ride in my FD for the first time.
