Miata Mailing List: June 1998, Message #1075

Ditto what Ben said.  And likewise about the roll bar rule.  I prefer to
keep Miatoy pretty much bone stock in appearance, but he does enjoy a
good road course.  Alabama is a long way to go to get his fix! But, if a
track day at TWS does get put together, please keep me in the loop,
regardless. I might just decide it's worth installing the bar.
Especially if the wife gives me that 'charger for our anniversary =:-)
Or maybe we could convince TWS that the non-bars would be running
slower, "instructional" laps? ;-)

BTW, is there a policy yet re. non-Miata types?  I wouldn't want to open
it up to just anybody, but there are one or two others here in the
office who are deserving of the opportunity to bask in the presence of
Miatas on the track, even if they are afflicted with lesser automobiles.
(e.g. a Vette and a MR2.)

Keep me informed!
