thanks for the ride andrew and maczpayne.
as a first day to experience a track day was really inspirational.
nice meeting y'all too.

bootleg mazfest FTW.

and that fresh miata that hypertek's talkin about...
looked like it came from Philippines being a wannabe Jeepney or something.

thanks for the air freshener Andy.
chinkst3r (aka Ken of NepTune Speed) jacked my rotor air freshener though.

Does that mean I beat out the FD's too? When they called me up they announced it as "best classic rx7..." I was stoked because this is pretty much my only shot at an RX7 award. We all know they'd never give me best FC at SevenStock. Too much rotary bias.

Showed up a bit after noonish. I was driving for the last few sessions, not pushing it, just getting a few break-in laps and getting a feel for it.

Hey guys, nice to see you again and meet some new folks. I was pretty pissed about my blown, oil leaking shock. Thanks WAN for letting me know. I will take it out tomorrow, but I think it's the one I scratched the piston rod when I was installing it... I talked to the on-site Tockico rep and he told me that is a sure fire way to blow the oil seals on the shocks. Oh well. I got two sessions out of it anyway. Fisa had a good time, she got a lot more track time than me I will say that I really like the track and facility, it's close by and is not that demanding on your car (as compared to Buttonwillow, say). I think the best part of my day before I found out about my blown shock was the $5 cheeseburger I had at the concession stand.

And for those of you that hung out in the mdpalmer/meiogirl 12'x12', you're welcome
