    I thought this was worth making a new thread:

    Norman Garret, one of the four original designers of the Mazda Miata, and the original designer of the Sebring Supercharger (now Jackson Racing Supercharger), will be instructing / "talking-shop" at the next Siegel Racing Open Track Day on Monday February 18th. If he's as big a hit as I think he'll be, he might be at more future events.

    He was one of the main designers of not only the Miata Suspension, but the early RX-7 suspensions as well. The guy has led an amazing life and is happy to chat about any of it.

    I just wanted people to know, please still sign up in the other thread:

    FYI, there will be an Ariel Atom there too ;)

    That's quite an impressive resume on the guy. Should be quite enlightening.
