    Hi everybody,

    I just booked a track day test and tune a miata ls6 swap (aka blue monster).
    There are some slots open and I'd like to invite anyone who would like to
    join. My only requirement is that you have been to TGP before (to minimize newbie risk).

    This will be a relaxed day without much structure.
    There will not be an instructor. No timed laps, no aggressive passing,
    and not corner workers. Max 3 cars at a time. A total of 8-12 slots available (see below for details).

    Safety Requirements:
    Long pants and closed toe shoes
    Snell 95/M2000 or higher rated helmet
    No loose cabling or or car body parts

    If we get 12 drivers, price will be $150.
    If there are only 8 drivers, price is $200.

    This is a great deal considering this is more track time than you
    can shake a stick at!

    Deposit of $150 will hold your spot. Send paypal to "4sevens" at "gmail"
    dot com. Please put in the payment comments the following:

    TGP 6/25
    name:
    phone:
    forum and forum name:

    If there are only 8 drivers, I'll need $50 when you arrive.
    All payments are non-refundable, it is your responsibility to sell your spot if you have paid and cannot make the track day.
    There is no charge for non-drivers, but you can't leave the track except during lunch and at the end of the day.
    I will be opening this to several other forums soon, so if you're able to do this don't hesitate.

    Those attending need to be at the track no later than 8:00am Central time (alabama time). Everyone needs to be in so the gates can close.
    Optionally we can meet at the mcdonalds at fulton industrial blvd and leave at 7:00am (georgia time).

    Is number two Sumner?

    damn damn damn...I think I may do this. Time to get some more Carbotechs as I ate your last set a few months ago.

    5:30 is awfully early to meet, though. That's going to put you at TGP around 6-630am.



    Edit* - screw it, payment sent...
    David, you're sucking me dry, I think I've just topped the $2k mark in money I've given you in the last few months... :D

    Yes that's him. We'll have two LSx v8 miata's running on the track :)

    That reminds me, I need to get some carbotechs too.

    Thanks for the time correction. I got my time zones messed up.
    Optionally meeting at mcd's at 6:30, get there at 7am central time.
    It's a 1.5 hour drive. :ddirty:

    Drew - you're on see you at tgp :)

    Anyone one to bet on me in the vette vs...the LS6 Miata
     
  12. 07Ltd#767

    07Ltd#767 The Neighborhood Drunk

    I'd bet my car on it...especially if Jack comes. LS6 miata's are nice, but a procharged z06 on 355 tires wins every day

    Jack says he is in, Ill order some pads and stuff for him today and tell him to send you the money tonight.

    Wow this looks like it's going to be a fun day. I'm going to have to pick up some slicks and a wing.
    Does anyone have a gtc-200 to sell and a spare nb miata trunk?

    What are the stats on the z06?

    I think Dan at BG has a spare wing he took off the drift car.

    Z06 makes 600whp and is on big sticky street tires, hopefully I can get him to buy some pads before the track day.
     
  16. 4sevens

    4sevens Member

    Nice. I'll call dan monday.

    What does that z06 weigh?

    4sevens, I tried to send you a PM regarding this track day but it rejected it. Said you need to clear some memory space. I am interested in attending this track day. Let me know what I need to do. I was just at Tgp this past Sunday for the S2k track day and have been on Road Atlanta many times.

    4sevens Member

    You're welcome to come join us! Just go off like that civic! If you're seriously consider you'd better quickly jump in. I've got lots of inquiries and I'm not holding any places. Your deposit will hold your place :)

    slowwrx - I haven't heard from Jack yet.

    I'll update the first post as deposits come in.

    do you live on a miata farm?

    Haha! Thats a muffler fab place in hiram, ga.

    There just happens to be 3 miatas there (all with v8's) waiting for
    the same dual tip exhaust setup.

    slowwrx Supporting Member

    I thought I recognized that building, Buster and Matt are great guys and they do excellent work. If you want a full custom exhaust there is no one better, they are not cheap however.
     
  47. 4sevens

    4sevens Member

    Yeah - not cheap. However, we're going to try to get a quantity deal since three v8 miatas are getting the same job done.

    Traqmate rep will be out there with a couple units if anyone is interested in trying them out. :D
