Yeah, and the Hoosiers are not helping right now. Too sticky, causing my car to roll badly, costing me time.

Engine/tranny. Not much vibration to report. Noise, I have a Targa... I've learned to block most external noises.

Dave, when I come to the US next year ,I want to come to one of these AX events.
We have track days here, but this sounds like something fun.

They are fun. At least, I think so. Not all out fast like the big tracks, but good for learning car control that helps in everyday driving and the competition side of it.

The assembly not, I want it done right the first time around. And this way, I'll have a warranty too.

Dunno, he's been thinking about Miata's a lot lately... Maybe that has something to do with it?
