Well, I'm about to set off for a three hour drive (in a downpour) to see my girlfriend. I will be driving the 91 318 convertible, and am really excited (if you couldn't tell by this post)
Any central illinoisers gonna be at the Sunday Autocross in Rantoul? Hopefully I will be able to convince her to go, I think I might get her to, although I doubt I can get her to drive (what is so hard about a stick shift?)
good luck and have a safe trip. bring back some cool pics and video...
mtn What town do you live in? If you live close to Chicago I can tell you about some really good autox events with lots of timed runs like 9-12.
I'm about twenty minutes from Wisconsin. I think that my dad and I are autocrossing with Wisconsin Autocross this year; the only reason I might be going to Rantoul is because I am trying to get my girlfriend to go with me; she's in Bloomington right now.

Windy City Miata's put on nice events. When I was autocrossing regularly I went to a couple of their events and had a blast. Usually pretty tight courses.
I'll be there in a smurf blue STS miata.
garyp you said "I'll be there in a smurf blue STS miata. " wich event are you talking about The next Miata club event or the next CVO event? where you at the last Miata event if so what was your car number?

Blast! I didn't get to go to the Rantoul one today, maybe I'll make it to something up back up north next week
You missed a good event. We had great weather & everybody got a minimum of 6-runs.
I'm almost, kinda-sorta, starting to get a feel for this RWD thing. Maybe I won't trade my Miata for a Rabbit, at least, not yet.

Rust free A1? No such thing ever existed! 
How 'bout an A5? Its alot like an A1 except its actually reliable, comfortable, and not a death trap.
It even has a little red grill detailing to tickle that A1 GTI nostalgia itch.
I've been lurking on WCMC site for some time. I'll make one of their events someday.
