Gauging interest for a V8 Miata gathering at Mitty 2015

[charchri4]

A bunch of us V8 types are gathering at Mitty at Road Atlanta April 24-26, 2015. Flyin Miata will sponsor a corral for us and of course all the other cool stuff that happens at mitty every year.

Post here or PM me if you can make it or even might come so we can get a possible car count. Hope to see you next summer!

V8s??? That's just crazy talk.

Maybe contact Shandelle at V8Roadsters since they are a sponsor on here? :whistle:

Yeah I'll touch base with Shandelle if this takes off for sure. I want to be a little careful not to exclude Ford guys by loading it with GM support and I already have FM on board. So for now I just want to see how many guys we have that want to do it.

V8s??? That's just crazy talk.

Huh? Starting with a 20+ year old tiny 2 seater car with a trunk bearly big enough to hold a small picnic basket and large blanket, with a sparsely of sheet metal that is frighteningly easy to scrunch up between the duels on a Peterbuilt tractor, then shoehorning an engine into it with more horsepower than said Peterbuilt, at a cost of 10 times the actual value of the car...well exactly that part of that doesn't scream practicality and necessity to you?

About 2000 miles too far for me.

[charchri4]

Yeah we have a few left coasters that would prefer something much farther west. On the other hand we have a guy driving from the middle of North Dakota...

I like your avatar that is really creative!

Count us in, we make the trip every year. Maybe we'll bring a V6 too.

1/28 schedule update this should be final
Friday morning: Flyin Miata V8 Corral opens.

Noon: Free parade laps at noon on Road Atlanta for all V8 Miatas brought to you by http://i62.tinypic.com/2ia61s2.jpg.

Afternoon: Hang out and watch the races.

Friday night: There's usually a Mazda party at the GRM tent.

Saturday: Show day! Line them up in the V8 Corral. Hang out and check out V8 Miatas (and their offshoots) as well as some other great cars and racing. It's tough to get in and out of the track on Saturday so plan to come early and stay late.

Saturday night: Meet up with the local MX5 Atlanta folks for a big party at a local restaurant.

Sunday: V8 Corral is open. Options to watch races, check out the skid pad or head north to cruise the hills of Georgia with the option to continue on to the Tail of the Dragon in Tennessee.

You did catch that open lapping for free right?
