I officially feel like crap... I completely forgot about this. Very sorry guys.

Neil, I am with you and would really like to get the car on a road track in the near future. Though I am having trouble finding road tracks close to Orlando. If you know of any please pm me.

I got there 2.5 hours late, but I thought the meet was great. Happy to see familiar faces and make new friends as well. Not to mention I got to take home a large stash of leftovers again!

Thanks for all the event posts M104-AMG! I was suppose to go autocrossing at Whitehouse in my buddy's miata today, but he ended up having to go to work. My slowass black P5 isn't worth tracking and I'm selling my 7 to that same friend. However I should be able to make the Classic Motorsports Mitty Event that you mentioned if I get the day off.

No car is too slow for autocross. I started in my Mercedes wagon . . .

I'm planning to go to the Mitty Event and be part of the record attempt.

I'll start another thread . . .

For the record, I timed our return trip to Gainesville. Girvin Park to city limits Gainesville in 1 hour 18 min.. Mark you have convinced me to get a big **** wing and a brake upgrade. Both road tested on our trip felt solid.

I put in an e-fan and the aftermarket thermostat failed... i went through 4 of them before i got one that didnt catch on fire - good thing Mazdas weren't made in CHINA!

This one is activating the fan at 185... i'm not exactly comfortable with that. I need to get an adjustable one that actually works.

I have had success with an adjustable Derale fan controller, controlling a BOSCH 70-amp relay.

When I can find some pics, I'll post.

Thanks Eddie. I'll give you first right of refusal.

But first, I need a DEDICATED FD track car with a full cage & NASCAR style side bars. . .

Neil, the Mitty Event is the same weekend as Deals Gap Rotary Rally (dealsgaprotaryrally.com). DGRR is fantastic and by far the best rotary event on the East Coast. I am going and you should too

Yeah, I may be going to DGRR as well, still working on the funding. The lodge is booked, so I am thinking I may just bring a tent
