Here is what I have been working on. Theses are dual 25 row oil coolers. This will help with the 130 deg track temps. Hey anytime you need help just call me.

FC3s91: I talked it over with the guys and you can go to the website and go to contact info and send them a e-mail, they will send you back one asking about your car information and some other questons. But you can do this at anytime.

Casey: I was looking at your vids on your page and I was thinking, your spoiler looks as if it creates lots of drag. But then again your autocross car is a vert so...is that air geting broken up anyway? I'm not really sure what to think about the aerodynamics with your car.

Casey, those are pretty **** questions and that spoiler is absolutely ridiculous hahaha. Only on an autox Miata would you see something like that.

As I was filling my car up with gas today, I do my routine check on my tires and theres a screw in my tire! I'm going to go to America's Tire tomorrow after class to get it fixed, and don't worry, I'll take my brother's car to school so I minimize the chances of my tire popping. I was still pretty bummed when I saw that. I've been having some seriously bad luck with tires over the past year. I've gone through two sets (technically one and a half, but I have 2 spare tires on the side of the house which complete the second set) and this is my third set. I need a spare set of wheels for strictly track use

you guys must be talking about the videos of the "rules" on the spoiler. sorry bout that, those are for the rule makers, and the other CSP guys. there are a couple questions I have that no one can answer.

he he. anyways, did you guys see the on track footage? did a cool picture in picture thing using mine and Jesses Camera.

next tiem I need to get Jesses camera a little closer. it was hard to GUESS what his camera was and was not going to capture.

Those are the exact size wheels I want to run on my car one day. The only thing holding me back right now is that I have springs, not coilovers, so I can't be sure the usual specs of wide wheels won't rub on my springs.

Only $300 for the frp one, but that $160 to ship is rough
Still very tempting though

Hmmm... I'm trying to prep up for a smog check next week, and could use a good excuse to use up the old gas in the tank & log some miles...

i wouldnt worry about that... i had 17x8's w/ a 35 offset all the way around with tokico blues struts, and then i had 18x7.5 38 offset in front and 18x9.5 35 offset in the rear with the same struts...... so fitting a 17x8f and 17x9r is very doable with struts..its just all about offset offset offset! lol
