I'm in.

I am also taking sponsorships. If anybody wants to personally sponsor my autox car building endeavors, please feel free to contact me. I will be setting up a 501(c) by the end of the week.

I'm almost done with a vvt swap into my `97. It'll be "good enuf" in time for this weekend's autocross.

One thing you have going for you is OBD-I. Pretty easy to keep everything street legal, I didn't have a chance with the ODB-II requirements on mine.

Why so cranky :lol: ?

This was always the plan - a year of fun as-is and then add power when I know(think?) I can handle it.

I'm just playin' around. I'm on the same plan. Once I'm comfortable with the car as it stands on track I'll likely add some kind of boost to the car. I'm a while off from that though.

I used the wrong smiley guy, I didn't want the one with the frown.

Rob, please have a talk with your fellow Lilliputians. 200 to the rear wheels of a miata on track is nothing but a thing. just ask Butler.

sorry about the Lilliputian thing. not that there is anything wrong with it. :P

and Kendt, .....well you know. tsk,tsk,tsk

I thought the forums were smart enough to censor Remchak after 10pm but prior to 8am?
