I agree with Zach and Tim Brett, that’s real sick. Is there a cure?

Well OK, maybe the circa 2002 Mazda emblem is fine on an FC, kind of goes with the electronics. Any of you guys hear about the recall trouble they're having with electronics on the new cars? Damn I love Nicki's.

Mike is helping print the remaining 2010 OGTA calendars, so if you don’t have one yet be sure I’ve got your mailing address, we should have them ready to go early next week. Here’s the final edited version, just a little different from the ones you guys got on Tuesday:

Ray, I noticed on the calendars, I didn't actually take the September photo... Someone else did, I just had it saved on my computer. Sorry...

Incidentally all you wise OGTA's, if the September picture was taken by Chris, why isn't Sexy Pants there?

Changed my brakes and clutch hydraulics out today (Thanks Kristy and Crit!)

They're great, except when I got back to jefferson I realized that when I take a left turn I hear a lovely knocking noise...

Shouldn't be, though. All new hardware, well lubed..

The front driver' side, inside brake pad is knocking. As the rotor turns, it catches the pad and slides it 'forward' (Technically up) and knocks it against the pin/caliper.

This is quite annoying.


Aside from that, I adjusted my clutch (woo hoo!).

Chris Rowe came by in a rather unfortunate looking Boinger with the wrong gearbox, so, to remedy the situation and salvage what was left of our relationship, I gave him a Miata gear lever which he promptly slid into the proper cup holder.

In other news, I will later have a poll going. So stay tuned!

That should have been the slogan for the 4 piston brakes from the start lol.

This is classic Ace material.

Kevin, I think all that snow is affecting your brain.

Collin, good to know you got stopping power, that's the most important part.

Of course if you had an FB you wouldn't need those 4 piston brakes to get that behemoth stopped. The mazda engineers knew what they were doing when they kept the definitive vehicle of the 20th century under 2500 lbs.

Jeff, now that we have your attention, did you take this?
