One more about the Miata accidents...
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380289630 I had a look for some spare parts today and ran into this MX-5(Miata). The pole made a nice little bulge in the back of the trunk! Means it ran right away through the car. The driving girls had some scratches on her jacket... Apparently the radial forces of the hit send her to the middle of the car and she walked away unharmed... Another Miata driver in his second life I suppose.. (BTW the Miata is now the "Vlad Tepes Edition") |

That's neat. CX500? I used to putt around with a guy who rode one, and even though it was fairly ugly and the slowest of our crowd, I always liked it a lot just for the odd engine configuration. Not particularly thrilling to ride, but really remarkably smooth. Always wanted one; the pic above makes me want one even more, done cafe style please.

Same caliper on my car cooked my Brembo rotor. PSA: Degrease and regrease your caliper slides every once in a while.

I stayed up this morning and got an early start on pulling my dash. Had the dash out within 20 minutes (done it at least 5 times now) and started fixing my half assed, ghetto stereo wiring. Pulled all of that shit out, hopefully fixed a few rattles, secured some loose wiring from the harness, and cleaned up a bit. Then I made a panel to go over the fuel tank/pump, behind the seat. I didn't realize it would need a bulge, so the panel is kind of humped up and touching the top of the pump cover and hoses. Fuck it, I hate this car. It's a rattle trap, and needs too much work to get it into a condition that I could be happy with.
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380298889 That's how I've felt recently. Just give me something reliable and comfortable. I'm tired of car drama. |

(BTW the Miata is now the "Vlad Tepes Edition") This is a miata under a tractor trailor, but if you keep your foot in in (blacked out, maybe?) you shoot out before it runs you over with the back wheels. State Trooper: Where's the driver of this car? Me: *raises hand* State Trooper: No, the driver of THIS car? Me: *raises hand further* State Trooper: *incredulous look* CLICK ON THE FUCKING THUMBNAIL! So as you can see it was raining, I had the top up, but going under the truck F&F styleeee it was removed. Change the subject to: Miata crashes I've been in I know some racer-folk have been in some shit too... |

I rolled my CRX when I was 18. Only got a literal scratch. Like the size of a papercut. And it didn't mess up the car too bad. Not streetable, but I sold it and its a racecar now
