ooh...that sucks....was it time to get new tires at least???

i was there all weekend. we were in the mazda corral on sat and sun and did the parade laps on both days. had a great time except i spent most of it chasing my daughter around....

it's definitely kid friendly. there's a playground and a kids music/craft area. i'll be bringing my 20 month old daughter

i'm not a photographer, but to use a flash for parked cars, wouldn't you bounce the flash off a wall or use light boxes, etc to soften the light?? ....and yay i can see the rest of the board

never a cheerleader....spent high school going to punk shows

saw it. it was a nice car. there was a really nice silver protege5 there with custom interior and such....thousands of dollars in the car...loved it! had zoom zoom stitched into the doors there might be a mazda corral @ midohio for indy weekend aug 7-9. tripoint mazda cars will be there yay!

to continue ot about cameras...it's a nikon d700...i think he only brought 2 lens w/ him since he should've been shooting the car race and not me. this wasn't supposed to be a glamor shot of me he usually fixes white balance, etc in capture nx, but i just stole that photo off his computer before he messed with it i have no idea what his aperture, etc was set at, either....

here's a pic of myself from sat @ mid-ohio (my ranger is on the left - the 3 is in front of it, but you can't see it) ....and yes that is my daughter (she's wearing a mazda shirt ) http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q247/frenchychan/_DSC8608.jpg

we also need to get some racing seats because the regular 3's seats suck and when you corner, you are slid out of your seat.....not good when racing!

yes they can be somewhat slow because they are heavy but they are still a blast to drive. they handle great we have mazdaspeed coilovers made by kw

no, this is my account. he is not joining, nor posting through me.

he's not on many forums so i'm not sure he'll sign up for this board.

nice car! can't remember everything that's been done to our car.... we had springs on it, but took them off to put on coil overs so we can raise or lower it he's got a tripoint rear sway bar cold air intake etc etc tons of little things.....like i said, i don't do the wrenching... any mazda things going on in columbus?? we just did the mazda corral at midohio this past weekend for the race up there. that was fun. met some people from the cleveland6club and the indy rx-8 club

i meant naturally aspirated instead of turbo...my bad....but whatever...i don't do the wrenching, he does. i just like to watch cars race

i don't think we are going to turbo it....we are thinking forced air induction not sure though...
