I recently purchased a used 1990 white A package with limited slip.  The 
original owner got the car in July of '89 (and paid nearly $26K out the
door!) and kept the car meticulusly clean even though it has 39K miles on it.

I plan to use the car for a daily driver and occaisional Autox vehicle, and 
would like some pointers to good books about setting up Miatas.  I ordered
the factory workshop manuals from Helm, but I have heard about some "Special
Tuning" book.  Does such a beast exist?  Does anyone have a good set of
numbers for an autocross alignment? (David Kay, you out there?)  How about
some info for a Miata Owners of America or the address of Miata magazine?

So far, this is the first (of about 20) car I have bought that didn't have
something that bothered me enough to want to spend $300 to fix.  That's
saying a lot comming from me.

Boy this list is kinda slow....maybe this will spice things up a bit.
The new MGB is like trying to make a goldfish out of a terrier: legs off,
fins on, tube through the back of the head so it can breathe, bit of gold
paint, make good. -sfisher@wsl.pa.dec.com
