Where did it go? No sign of it on Speed TV. How are people watching it now? Is it streaming online live somewhere?
I'll watch it in German if I have to!

Re: Shocks vs spring/sway bars
I remember someone saying that Koni yellows don't like to have the damping set full stiff (i.e. with the screw against the stop). I was told to back off from full stiff "just a bit" do avoid some kind of "hydraulic lock" or something. Not sure if that's true or not, but maybe som...

Re: Anyone have a flex-hone I can borrow?
Thanks for the suggestion George. That's my fallback plan. I'm putting a head and junk-yard pistons into a beater car in the hope of getting to 1) run and 2) pass smog, so I am sorely tempted to just use the rings that are on them, but much of the "free-advice" indicates that reusing the r...

Re: Wanted: NA miata rear sway bar and mounts
Interesting. I may give the stock bar another try once I've had a chance to get used to the toyos. I'm hoping to get out to a few events now that the whole Mars landing thing has died down.

Re: End Link Question ...
I can't really see the geometry of the bar ends from the picture, but it seems like the way you mount the endlinks would change the leverage for twisting the bar. As a rough estimate of how much, measure the distance from the center of the endlink bushing to the axis of the actual swaybar. If this c...

Re: Palero Wang motorcycle accident
Patty and Mike have both been released from the hospital and are now home resting. I'm sure Mike will post an update when he gets the chance. They are pretty banged up (especially Patty), but It could have been much much worse.
