I have some extra Sunday ticket for the Mitty if anyone is interested.. $15 each. I have like 5 that I ordered and some that have backed out.

Since there so many rotor heads coming to the Mitty. I'm in the market for an SA
shifter surround for a GS or limited edition interior. This is the plastic part that pops
on around the shifter and has the boot attached.

I don't need a boot but what I'm looking for is the correct surround. The correct one
has the plastic trim around the boot opening as chromed plastic. The base version
is just black. At some point I replaced my original which was in poor shape with a
junkyard find from a base model and its black

. I tried painting it with the "chrome"
duplicolor stuff but it really doesn't look the same.

So if anyone has one bring it to the Mitty and lets make a deal.

Quick question for you guys. I have a choice between taking I65, or I75.

Anybody have an opinion on which is the more "pleasant" highway to drive?

Thanks.

Can't beat this forecast for the Mitty:

t_g_farrell · 04-27-2011, 02:23 PM

Heres my personal schedule (could change without notice)

Thursday - arrive, setup camp, enjoy the sunset and have a cold brew

Friday - Cracker Barrel breakfast, wander around the Mitty tents, bbq some brats
for lunch, if theres a parade lap do that, watch racing, go to the free Mazda
key party for food and some cold brew.

Saturday - Cracker Barrel breakfast, wander around the Mitty tents, bbq some brats
for lunch, if theres a parade lap do that, watch racing, go to the free Hella day into
night party for food and some cold brew (see the patterns here

)

Sunday - Cracker Barrel breakfast, await DGRR folks, attempt record breaking parade
lap, bbq some lunch, watch some racin, head for home around 3 p.m.

Throughout any of this time I may break out my stout and cider for impromptu
tastings and debauchery. You've been warned.

t_g_farrell · 04-28-2011, 12:52 PM

I'm busy packing as we speak. I'm bring 24 beers and 9 ciders. That should hold us for bit.

I'll heading out within the hour. Anyone who wants to exchange cell phone numbers
PM me before 2:45 and I'll make a note of them.

Looks like Friday may be a light turnout, but saturday will be the full crew and then
some more on Sunday. Can't wait.

t_g_farrell · 04-28-2011, 01:54 PM

Woohoo! Heading out now. Anyone that wants to get a hold of me, just PM ray green, or BigIslandSevens for my cell phone. I may not answer for the next
3 hours due the excellent rotary symphony and open windows of my car but leave
a message and I can call you back around 6:30 or so.

If anyone wants to get a quick bite to eat around Braselton tonight I'm all ears.
I should be available after 7 sometime.

Great weekend over all! I don't think we could have asked for better weather. In case anyone is curious I am told we DID NOT make the world record for most Mazdas on a track at one time. Apparently that's currently held by some New Zealand Miata club but we did manage a N. American record.

It was good to meet some of you even though I couldn't have my car there. I especially enjoyed talking to the older guys with race experience as it really gave me some insight for my upcoming "build". For those who don't know me (everyone) I was the tool running around and directing a lot of the parking at the Mazda corral (Reds hat on Saturday, blue "way out" shirt on Sunday).
