    Fireball Run Adventurally---Northern Exposure

    OK folks...here is one that you do not see happening very often. the Fireball Run--Northern Exposure is coming to a town near you. and yours truly and partner, Meierznutz, aka Chris Meier, are going to be participating in a very big way. We are in it!! What is the Fireball Run? An 8 day, 7 night 2400 mile adventure that is run in a different part of the country every year to raise awareness and help to find America's Missing Children. This event has been instrumental in helping to find 38 missing kids over the last 5 years.

    Why am i posting this here?...because we are doing it in Nadine...an LS1 powered '91 Miata.

    Where in the Northeast is this going?...From Independence, OH to Jamestown NY to Wellsborough, PA to Watertown NY to Schenectedy NY to Waterbury, CT (our hometown) to Ocunquit ME to Bangor ME. Lots of ground to cover and lots of Miatas owners out there that could come out and support this event and us.

    Check out the following links

    And an announcement in the Waterbury paper this week...

    I have also attached the original article that was in the paper back in March that helped get us started.

    You all can help...read the articles..decide in your own heart if you wish to support us and not one red cent goes to car prep. All of that is on Chris and I.

    You can email us at v8miatafireball@gmail.com

    thank you for reading

    What are you up to in Independence, anything? I'm 30 minutes from there.

    I'm familiar with the NUTMEG folks. I see quite a few at Lime Rock each year... even tho I only know like 3 of them.
