Ha! So that's why there's no parking when I have clinic down there!

I'm out of town right now on vacation. Sucks because I've had the car for 9 days now and only driven it 60 miles. Perhaps when I get back into town. Thanks for the invite.

I actually had to get mine in Arlington. I placed multiple deposits (starting after Thanksgiving) in different dealerships for one in both SA and DFW and the dealership there called me first. I actually had the silver manual on order but some guy had bad credit on this black auto. I drove up on the 20th to get it but then went for vacation after. Funny thing is that all of these dealerships started calling me afterwards the next day with all of these different FR-S's ready to go.

FRAGO on my part. Ill be there for C&C but I am not going to make the ride. I have to be here to sign for a package. A package that should have been here 2 weeks ago

By the way, anyone know of an Argenta FR-S at UTHSCSA? Or a Raven FR-S at Children's Hospital of San Antonio?

Thanks for the welcome. I will try to make it to one of these events one day, schedule permitting.

Pictures look really awesome. Thanks for posting them.

Awesome pics Ricepuddin!

Here's the only 2 pics I have from the drive. Unfortunately Got3n had to leave early, so it's just Stoly (Miata), me, and Boosted on these. The drive was amazing & I'm definitely up for it again!!!

[Got3n]

OMG the twisted sister drive was sooooooo much fun, the run was fast and hard, I abused the hell out of 3rd and 4th gear. I am truly amazed at the stock handling on the 86. I cant wait to get my wheels and coilovers and bracing done. I am 110% up for the run again, next time i will take my friend who I'm sure would scream like a girl non stop. I was really proud of my GF, who was in the passenger seat, she was in a horrible car accident a while back and since is scared of cars. She did very well and had an amazing time she said. I was told to take it slow the first time so I went a bit slower than the leaders but there were only a few time I went below 20mph and those were far and few between. Hit over 100 a few times ^_^. Already jones'in to go again...i got the itch. Next up, AutoX.

One of these days I am actually going to make to one of these runs and not have something pop up at the last minute.

Yeah it was a great time. The twisted sisters route is a MUST. I have to say the miata was a beast. I havent had that much fun in years. For those of you deciding on suspension ideas. I would implore you to at least get the front chamber (crash bolts) and a rear chamber kit and get your car aligned. This makes a huge difference and will allow you to push your car that much further. As well as not make you replace anything since it will compliment springs or coilovers. Also NTB for 199 will guarantee a alignment and do unlimited alignments for 5 years. They will get it to whatever you ask them, here is the alignment they were able to get me and I still have more neg chamber ability in my fronts (buddy club racing coilovers have top camber plates). Hopefully we can get a larger group event for the twisted sisters. I will warn you it is a addiction once you try the route and several weeks without it will cause frustration and or anger if you don't get your fix.
