I had some adapters made to use 4 x 100mm, 38mm offset wheels. 205/50-15 tires fit nicely under the front cycle fenders. Far more choices and less expensive than 4 x 4 1/4" wheels. I can swap back and forth with the wheels on my Miatas. They have been on the car for more than 25k miles with no problems.

I want one of those safety stickers for my dash panel. My Miata had the standard "Sit down, strap in, shut up and hang on" engraved on the A/C vent. Years ago I had a bunch of labels printed that said "Ass, Grass or Gas, Nobody Rides for Free" that I put on the dash of all my cars.

You should'a gone with him. How often do you get a chance to brand a steer?

Ouch! That hurt to watch. The chassis did stand up to the crushing well, you can see the machine rock up on its tracks as it tries to flatten the chassis.

Those are nifty. I recently bought an Escort Max 360 with an OLED readout. It was totally unreadable when the top was down in both the Caterham and the Miatas. I sent it back and got another Escort 9500ix which has an LED screen which works fine in the sunshine. Hopefully the ones in the video would be bright enough to work in an open car.

I've seen it a couple of times at car shows but never at any club events. It sounded good when he started it up but that's all I know about it.

Yes

Happy Birthday Eddie! We should all be so lucky: Living to 80 and still having fun, a lady like Ercie and a fantastic birthday present. I for one don't have a problem with listing your CTS-V for sale on this forum but I don't make the rules and don't know if it is allowed or not.

A friend who already has one of the 2005 Ford GTs decided he wanted one of the upcoming new ones. Here's a newspaper article on the selection process Ford has put in place. There are already 5,000 applications for the planned 2 year batch of a total of 500 cars. He said he just got word that 500 applicants so far have been eliminated but he is still in the running. And here are the two videos he and his son produced to submit along with their application. A change in the music will tell you when the 1st one ends and the 2nd one starts. This is his current Ford GT at today's Colorado Concours. I have driven this car at 140 mph and it is the sweetest car I've ever driven.

BTDT, for a minivan it actually drove quite well and could haul a sh!tload of stuff.

I think not, I've owned 36 Miatas :driving: and not a single one was :puke: Laguna Blue.

The first 1.8 Miata I saw was a pre-production car in that color, didn't like the color then, still don't.

Its actually Laguna Seca Blue from the BMW M series but I like both Grabber and Smurf (Mariner Blue).

As a data point, my 2004 (build date of 12/03) Roadsport SV has the aluminum hubs with cast iron calipers. It had an open differential to which I added a Quaiffe LSD. It also has an updated deDion tube with reinforcements to prevent the attachment points from separating from the tube. I do not know the change over dates for any of this. I can't speak to engines or transmissions as I put in a turbocharged Miata engine and transmission. It came set up for the Zetec engine and T-9 transmission. You can have mine for $35k.

Much as I like yellow that is a great improvement.

Caerbont Calibration.pdf I made a simple bracket to mount a sensor on the two bolts holding the caliper to the upright on the LF wheel. The sensor is: You can find calibration procedures on the Caerbont website if the attachment doesn't work. http://www.caigauge.com/product-instructions Under Speedometers click on "Electronic (2004 to date)

Hi Will, my name is Skip and I don't need no 12 step program. Congratulations on the new 7 and welcome to the forum. Please post some pictures.

Are you forgetting the Cayenne and Macan? The apocalypse must already be here.

Mathematics: This comes from 2 maths teachers with a combined total of 70 years experience. It has an indisputable mathematical logic. This is a strictly ..... mathematical viewpoint... and it goes like this: What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life? Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions: If: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Is represented as: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26. Then: H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98% And K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96% But , A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100% And, B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T 2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103% AND, look how far ass kissing will take you. A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G 1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118% So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty, that while Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there. Its the Bullshit and Ass Kissing that will put you over the top. Now you know why some people are where they are!

My Caterham also has a Radtec aluminum radiator. They made it to my specs after two Caterham radiators failed. With the intercooler in front of the radiator it needs all the cooling capacity it can get and the Radtec provided that.

Maybe they are white silk scarves in honor of Isadora Duncan. They look like they have been flapping in the wind.

Damn, its getting so you can't believe anything you see on the internet anymore. In 1987 I got stuck in a long line of left lane cars on the Autobahn headed by an American GI in a Firebird doing about 85 mph. I was the only car that pulled into the middle lane to pass him. I tried to signal to him to move over but he flipped me off. As long as I could see them in the mirrors no one else did a right side pass. The fast lane was clear for quite awhile for me after that. I cruised at 125 mph and that wasn't fast enough for the left lane but overtaking cars flash their head lights giving plenty of time to move over.

No one passes on the right in Germany, right?
