The Miatas gathered bright and EARLY
on Friday morning at the track at Road Atlanta. The fact that it
was bright was a surprise... It had rained for two days straight
prior to the event! They said Atlanta would be cool in October...
Anybody
know these people? I don't! But it looks like they're having a
good time watching the Miatas race around.
The vendors
set up on Friday and rapidly filled the parking area. Poor Julie
the vendor coordinator was overheard to ask, "Why did they
all have to show up at once?!"
You can see
them start to gather. Here they are at the Dealer Alternative
booth. Bill's already got Miatas up on jacks!
Here's my
mobile T-shirt shop! Mary Riley let me borrow her Red Miata.
Thanks Mary!
Another
shot of the Dealer Alternative. Luv that bear!
Vince
Tidwell and Gary bundle up against the cold on Saturday morning.
The newscast said it was 28 degrees out! Brrr...
My hero!
Tom Matano, and his latest creation.
All around
fantastic, super, great guy - "Dunlop" Dave Shelton!
Can you
guess which is me? I'm standing with Jim Goodroe from Downing
Atlanta, and Mike Harris from Mazda. Like my sweatshirt?
That's
Terri and Bill Cardell from Dealer Alternative. I had dinner with
them on their anniversary! Real nice people. By the way, Bill is
the one with the Oreo in his face.
My doofus
friend DeNutso and Reverend Jim Massie. Two redheads.
Hey! Mary
Riley, event coordinator, in the Miata she let me borrow. Thanks
again Mary!
That's my
bud, Rob Young from the Ohio Buckeye chapter, in front of Ernie
Frankl from CAMS. Nice face Rob! :)
Can you
believe that Leigh-the-hyphen-lady let Doofus work on her car! I
think I'll send Leigh a calling card for Christmas.
Well, here they are. Candy, Norm, and the six little
ones! Meet the Garrett family. This is just one of the many pics
I took of the MCA founder and his brood. What neat kids!
Have you
met the Mooata? It even has a horn that goes... Mooooo!
Sunday
took us downtown for brunch. The Coke World was across the
parking lot.
Brunch and
closing ceremonies were held in an old train depot. The MARTA
trains are still running on the tracks behind the building and
several went by outside our windows!
Well, that's it! Enjoy!
