MI MI fun drive 4/8/08 8:30am by mazda247.com forum

Thought I'll post this up for anyone who might be interested.

Guys at the mazdaforums are having the first fun drive for 2008. ~ 111 miles of some fun, law-observing driving

Saturday, 4/12/08 8:30am depart
Leaving from Northfield Roadhouse, 50 E North Territorial Rd, Whitmore Lake, MI 48189 (just west of U.S. 23)
http://mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123698442

I've made it to one before with my Maxima years ago and had a lot of fun, the other drivers were pretty nice too. I won't be making it with the way the weather is, but I'll try to bring my FD out for the next one when it's nice and dry out.

If anyone is interested in signing up, please RVSP to the thread at mazda247 forums. They are keeping an eye on the weather for the weekend, so it might get postponed depending on conditions.

I wanted to make it out to that meet but my GF was in town and not really car-oriented. The early august event looks pretty cool, I'll try to be there, and I wish i could make it to woodward with you guys, but I wont be in-state

Oh yea, A2 here

Hey Bill, yea I'm going to take out my engine and tranny to put in my vert. I want the Blk 88 turbo shell to find a good home It has a nice single stage urethane paint job and the interior is grey in spectacular condition...I really mean that. I also have the origional turbo motor/Trans from it that I could thrown in the deal if thats something you were interested in.
The motor needs to be rebuilt and is missing odds and ends. Its a solid platform if building a fast car is something you want to do. I know a place in IN (banzai-racing.com) that could put the car together for you for very cheap. I got all my engine work done their and they have more that met my expectations. Heres some pics of the Blk car...soon to be the shell (minus the aero-kit and wheels) The shell will also keep the 4piston turbo brakes and drilled/slotted rotors as I dont need them for the vert.


Check out the last pic. Gotta love the Vert!!!!!!

Hey all,

I just picked up a 88 SE model a few weeks ago and since getting it home I havent been able to restart it. Is anyone around the Wixom/Novi 48393 area that could maybe help me out with this thing?

I drove it home the 30 miles from Hamtramck without issue but I cant get it restarted. Its alsmost there, I performed the deflood procedure but I dont know what Im looking at lol. Learning a lot though.

Brandon
