Just thought I would stick my nose in and show what I am up to.

PT GT:

Tried selling it this year so I wouldn't have to store it, that failed. But I did manage to get a bunch of stuff installed:

Mopar Stage I (new injectors, ECU)
Intake manifold update swap
Mopar CAI
SRT4 boost gauge
Mopar "lip" kit all the way around
215/45R17 Yoko s.drive
Lots of little ****...

And I also picked up a new hobby/disease/problem, Autocross. The best beginner vehicle aside from, say, a Civic? The NA Miata:

Between the peeling paint, the stripes, altezzas, and fake roll bar - something had to give!

Started the season in stock, ended up in prepared class due to the larger size wheels/tires. Now running 215/45R16 Kumho Ecsta XS, which are amazing! Currently prepped for winter, with the hard top and steelies.

Phew. That's all for now...

Nice man. Im thinking about AutoCross with the RX7. I couldnt find the time/money to finish it last summer so now I need to upgrade my fuel system. Damn.

Miata looks good. Love those cars.

Oh hello,

Will you be staying or is this a ding dong ditch? But you answer the door and say hi, then run.

For how little he drives it, it prolly stays pretty clean.

Then again I wouldn't drive it either, all the flamers chase that car like its a super tight anus on wheels.
