Nice car, well put together. I thought I recognized the track! Do you ever go out to any local RX7 club or Mazda meets in the area?

There is actually one tonight at the Northgate Mall, you should come if you can. PM me I will send you the details.

Great video man... You must not live to far to come up to mission to race???

It was funny to see your first run out at mission... I was there that day watching the drags and saw your runs...

You'll have to bring it up for some track days and take it around the road course this summer... :) Maybe even a couple autocross days... :mrgreen:

Damn, saw this a few days late... yes I do like getting together a few times a year with the Mazda guys. I used to always attend the MX-West meets waaaay back in the day; not sure if this club even exists anymore?

Yeah, I live in Bellingham, work in Lynden so I'm pretty darn close to the track on fridays... usually just drive to work with the slicks on and head straight out haha! My goal for this year is to get more into autoX and road course. Is there an autocross club up in BC? Sounds like the property we use locally is no longer available so we are scrambling to find a new club...

There are 2 main clubs up here that run autocross... www.ubcscc.com and www.vcmc.ca.... Both clubs also run open lapping days out at mission on the road course during the summer as well...

Do you run with Chuckanut Sports Car Club????

Yes, I run with CSCC... last year was my first year though. I will definitely have to look into the road course at Mission!

Oh yeah, there are still a couple of us around still. I think I joined MX-West in 02' was pretty active up until 06'. There are several local meets around if you haven't already check out MazdasNW and NW-Built there are weekly and monthly meets to come out to.
