Driving stick is an art, just like painting. I can read about it, watch others do it. But, I still can't do it.
Fortunately, driving stick seems to be something that is learnable by most people. Unlike painting.

Great pics, and you got one of my car. A really good one at that, thanks!!!

But my God, that is a huge fender gap in the front I've got going. Maybe coilovers this winter when I can't spend any money on track time.

If you were at the BBQ on Saturday and I didn't give you a * on the first post in this thread, please just let me know and I'll fix it.

Thanks!

I just looked at the first post, and I didn't approve an honorary members list. When was the memo sent to me about that?

I think that all black cherry 8s should be at the top of the list since they are the fastest.

RedSheDevil,
did you have a dealer change your brakes or did you go somewhere else? the two dealerships I have gone to won't replace mine under warranty(I am past the 12 month limit) and I don't really want to donate money to Mazda.

my local dealer did it under the "good will" thingy. every time i had been in, i told them about it so it was documented and they all heard it. it was constant...not just a squeak here and there ... every single time there was light to moderate braking.
