Nice Weather

2 days to let the roads to dry out.
I bought a new (to me)...a 2000 Miata low mile goodie last fall. I had a stoke thrown into the mix and couldn't drive for 2 months ....soon there after. My SIL was kind enough to take me for a ride in the car.

The car needed some polishing & , I suppose, that was some good rehab for the old bod.....not that the old bod works as well as it did, but that was the hand I was dealt.
I went and retook my drivers test & got back my DL.

Then it rained. Basically from November till a couple days ago.
Sun's out and it's time to drive the thing. It has a after market turbo ( amongst other stuff) and that seems to be well installed. For a Miata, it goes like stink. Accelerates harder than any of my old street Porsches and the 6 speed is one slick shiftin' SOB. I didn't push the car for ultimate handling.......nor to check the old bod to see if that could cut it....but it feels good. I need an AX session.

The good weather is supposed to be good for a couple more days. I'll get some more butt time.
