September 6, 2009

Well, school will start in 2 days. Fun. I'm actually glad to be doing something that forces me to be productive and learn material well.

On another note, I feel like I may have jumped the gun with the miata in terms of modifications and such. Maybe for next season I will drive the car completely stock with a nice set of street tires (thinking AD08) .. definately need to learn the car a lot lot more to be fast. It's fun going back to driving a stock one to be honest because I learned to control the rotation of the car with throttle and steering combination quite well. I need to learn how to use the brakes for more rotation a lot better. It can definately help shaving off some time on your run.

No picture updates yet, but will update soon maybe with more school/random stuff. The car is planned to be stored for the winter and only bring it out on nice days... maybe I like miatas too much to drive it in rain and snow now. I'm looking at getting a beater for daily use and trashing.

More updates:

Got my short shifter from Winky after some trade bartering. It's a C's short shifter replica. This is my first experience with a short shifter so feedback should come later. For now its getting used to having such notchy shifting. Not used to it as I usually try to smooth as I can.


Look at the damage.... damn ricer and his hard shifting.



Came with all components, what can I say I'm happy I got one.
