... and occasional events at the Camarillo airport. The closest venue for those of us "up" here use to be Hollywood Park. We lost that lot a couple of years ago ...

There is also the BMW event in San Diego this weekend ... besides their regular events:

How about a storage facility that has those opening to the outside storage rooms ... get one on the shady side of the building. Unfortunately they tend to be the bigger "rooms," ie. expensive. The fellow next to me (mine opens to the inside corridor however) has a dragster in his. Next to ...

Trailer them like Karen does ...

Perhaps using the d-nuts before they're dowsed in sugar. I once asked them to pull a couple before they got drenched in sugar. They were practically tasteless ... :( On the Food Channel, I saw a burger show ... where they featured a place that deep fried the patties. They've been using the same oil ...

We (Karen and myself and I would think Tim also) CS mortals would welcome the added competition. Misery loves company ...

Batch processing the photos and will upload them to an album later today. It was cool to see how much fun everyone was having despite it being a bit warm. Christine rotated the workers in and out so everyone got breaks in our tent. Plenty of ice water. Schenker and Renee (talking to each other again...

Where ever you looked, there was Christine! Driving the shuttle cart, organizing the workers, getting lunch delivered to us migrant course workers, rescuing "dead" race cars, and working the trailer ...

You mean these guys ...

You can use Mako's Avatar Service ... just email the file to me. Michael gets the Volume Discount! Free + Free, Special ... :gpower:

Hi Albert ... nice to see you back! Hope you make it out to a regular event again ...

... what were you driving ?

Is it true that in Japan, the GPS recognizes when you're at one of their (few) race tracks, bumps up the rev limiter (not sure how it knows you're doing a Track Day vs just spectating?) ... but also schedules the car for a post tracking $1,500 service?!

So cool ... keep us posted on how you like it. A bit heavy for AX ?

Did you ever get your 22B reassembled? Love to see a photo of it. So many people just can't believe you've got a real 22B.

Unclear as to where there steel comes from:

Wow ... looks like the Perfect Home Away From Home !!!! :heyes:

When's Open House ... or the House Warming Party? Blender or 10/30 oil ? :gpower:

Are you taking it to Topeka ...

... removing these obnoxious fastners? (Miata Fender Liner fastners) The have a "phillips" head ... but there isn't any threading. You turn them and usually nothing happens. Sometimes the head pops out to make it easier to remove ... but only sometimes? http://images39.fotki.com/v1227/phot...

Apparently that was my dad's trick. My mom found out he took me to a strip joint ... it was in Japan, so I was under 4.5 years old. Apparently I said to my mom, "it was OK, they looked nice!"

For what type of car? Some of us have lots of springs that we don't need anymore. I was selling (barely) used Tein 75 mm springs for I believe $25 a set. Also check on your cars enthusiast message boards.

How much for a base 135 ... can you even get them?

Springs aren't that expensive are they? Maybe not worth experimenting. Maybe the experiment would be too expensive. Just stick with the better ones. German Steel! The japanese product engineer for Tein USA told me that even in Japan, the rabid, spare no expenses Gymkhana racers ($100K cars!) prefer ...

Or, even if you don't win, you can cry like Barco, Team Blubber ... :heyes: ... hey, it's Nationals! Everything else is just practice ...

Isn't Ken working for an escort service now? ... I mean missing a driving event, missing driving Henry's Vette to take a Gal to the theater? What's up with that.

Wasn't my fault ... I was just following the oem Bilsteins ... which some else had assembled BACKWARDS!!!

Struts are off for the rebuild ... with exact measurements from MazdaSpeed on which length springs we should be using!
