Hey Casey, very nice pictures and congrats for your "new" miata . I noticed that you were driving a miata today but I wasn't sure if it was your car...
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem
Glad I wasn't the only one wiping out walls of cones.
Nice pic Casey

Thanks!
Yeah its mine, still trying to learn how to drive it. its a lot harder to drive then the RX-8 was. and up untill yesterday I thought I was starting to figure it out. but then yesterday happened and it reminded me I dont know what I am doing.
1st lap was joke (little wet, and stone cold tires), 2nd lap I plowed all those cones (I locked it up), and 3rd lap was somewhat ok, except the one cone I nicked because I got lazy and didnt turn the steering wheel enough. all well. no one to blame but myself.

My sincerest apologies to everyone working this section on the 3rd run. Can't even begin to describe what went on there. Score sheet says 10 cones. Wow. I'm pretty sure I DNF'd, though.
It was cool seeing the help that corner got from by-standers in the grid area. A number of times, we would rush over to help set up the Pins after a Strike!
he he, yeah thats a good way to put it.
It was kinda fun to see hoe fast we could set up cones.
and ywah, you did DNF.... not that it would matter. adding 20 seconds to your time is like a DNF.
I did the same thing. i think I only got 3 or 4 cones there though.

OOOOORRRRR. you have a button inside the car that makes the cone to collaps right before you get there so you can run over it. then it pops back up........ allowing for no penatly and a fast time. Yup, that MUST be how that Evo is SOOOO fast.
I'm on to you.

I like when you hit cones, keep it up :gpower:
Id rather get a DNF'er than a 10 cone'er
