February 6th, 2006: Well I am back from Hallett and I have once again decreased my top time by about 4 seconds. My current top track time is 1:38:942. My old time was about 1:42:00. The only thing I have changed on the Miata is add harnesses. I also posted one of the top times in HST and was in 3rd out of all the drivers that had transponders. The other cars ranged from the Chevy Z06, to the Subaru Imprezza WRX STI, to turbocharged Miatas, to the tuned and stock Honda S2000. I also am becoming more and more consistent with my track times. Once again Kudos to innovative for getting harnesses in and ready for last Saturday. There are pictures of the event on page 2.

January 23rd, 2006: I am trying a new set of tire out. I have switched from the Toyo T1S to the Toyo T1R ( http://www.toyo.com/tires/tire_lines/sports_car/tr1.html# [copy this link into your adress bar to see the T1R's specs]). Toyo claims that it has stronger, harder tire walls and that it has improved handleing and grip in dry and wet conditions, and also has a shorter stoping distance in dry and wet conditions. So far I have been impressed, but the ultiment tes will come on Febuary 4th, 2006, when I take the Miata to Hallett and put her in her paces, weather permitting. Also I have finnaly got sitting in my garage a M2 Hard Dog Hard Core, with a Hard Dog bolt-in harness bar and Willans 3" harness pads.

Now its time to focus on my brakes and cooling abilities. Also I have posted some new images of my car on page 1. Scroll down and take a look to see tehm for your self.
