Re: Western Off Topic
Lol yea I was laughing my ass off as soon as I felt the rear end snap and it wouldnt hook back up.
Yes Adam, just an old 165k mile beat up Miata. Soo much fun and so cheap to maintain.
Though after about 10-11 track events Im going to finally have to put more front brakes on

And I quote... "OHHHH SHIT! OHHHH SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
I didn't see the last crash coming. I thought he was going to recover. I thought the crash you were talking about was that first little piddly spin out.
Brutal!!!

To get one of these cars to actually turn,the setup is very unforgiving.Once it gets that far gone you'd be very lucky to catch it.
Got any pics/info on the new car?
