    Turbo Miata motor in one, Miata/G series trans swap into the lemons car, 40+mpg in a dead-reliable daily. The coupe I am putting together will more than suffice for my speed lust.

    On another note...

    I'm going to start assembling the engine tomorrow, might get a wild hair and stuff it into the blue car tomorrow evening.

    Black car is gone tomorrow morning.

    There are a couple up here you could pick up if you want them.
    I can't help but laugh at all of those Festivas siting around...pure badassery!

    In a lemons car? Judging by the amount of Miatas that do so well, enough to win endurance races

    I'm betting he only takes up two spaces.

    That is Troy's car, and no it isnt a checkbook built car, Troy turned every nut an bolt on it. His driver blacked out and slammed into the wall at MSR coming onto the straight, and ended up in the infield, took nearly an hour for them to get the car pulled out of the standing water it was in so they could put him in an ambulance. It is now totaled.

    The Z wrecks was the green Z that had scales half ass painted on with a dragon tail off the back.

    The yellow and white one? That was one of my favorite cars out there. Doesn't bother me too much it was fun to watch and race with.
