Sorry about the front lip Bruce, those damn trash pandas!!! Arg!

Didn’t do much for Halloween but I did get to see some of my Mazda peeps over the weekend.

First we met up with Jacob, ML,...

A bit of a throwback for y’all. Realized one of my new Rx7 friends knows Phen from back in the Protege days. I went digging for a pic of my P5 and found these...

You missed a great show! Weather was perfect and it looked like record turn out. The truck won best Mazda (again). Amanda got to park next to a near identical ‘89 MR2 and everyone was comparing the...

I’m excited, the organizers go out of their way to source private collections of rad cars for every event. I’m hoping it’s like Japanese Car day on steroids! Also...people dress up so...I need to...

Awesome! All the toys are ready! Finished off the Mr2 with a good buff and detail then I plasti-dipped the spoiler since the paint on it was beyond saving and I kind of like the contrast. Came out...

What about Radwood on the 12th?

Wow, same color combo as my friend’s! I’ll have to tell him he’s got a collector car!

So with a little help from my friends, we have a running driving Mr2!

Here’s a reminder of where this started...

I have a college friend with an Element. He had it stored for years and just recently got it back on the road again. I got to drive it when it was new. It was fun and the gear stick high on the...

Wasn’t to bad considering, high 50s but the wind was gusting at 35 mph. This was the 7th year I think, and only the second time it was worth wandering around at the summit. Past years we have...

Another successful Mazda climb!

Got the rest of the motor torn down. It’ll be a few weeks before we get it back from the machine shop. Found a local guy who has a customer trying to boost a 4AGE, which has turned into a number of...

Congrats Mahk!

Another hill climb for the REPU. Went to the top of Burke Mountain this weekend while I was at a mountain bike festival. Passed some riders on the way up. Got thumbs up on the way back down. :)

We’re screwed if I get such an injury. We sold the CX9 and I’ve been bouncing between the Jeep, the REPU, and the Rx7. We don’t have an auto in the fleet anymore.

You baby boomers taking all the good jobs from us millennials! Arrrh! J/K ;)

Got my tickets for Limerock. Depending on weather we will probably just take the Jeep. The REPU is running fine now...

I’ll be there, still have to call and get tickets and a camping spot.

Took me the whole front straight to go from about 80-85mph to 100mph. I don’t recall getting over 100 but at some point you gotta look away from the speedo and find your braking point. LOL! I...

Yeah, You might not get air at the speeds you were traveling but you’ll certainly unload the rear suspension enough to cause a problem if you still have the wheel cocked. The turns are so big and...

How did it go?

Awesome! You're gonna love it! Some tips...
Turn 1 is a double apex. Some drivers are gonna be out in the marbles upon entry, don't follow them. You need to be turning in at the bridge so you...

Wow, great turn out! What event was this again?

Poking around the parts catalog it looks to be the left temp actuator part # L207-61-A60. The only thing is, I saw that one move. It's visible by removing the plastic trim panel under the driver's...

When trying to get A/C to turn on, we get ice cold air from the passenger vents and rear vents but the driver's vents blows ambient temp air. It occurs whether we are in single zone or dual zone...
