Took the roto-miata to a all state mazda meet and won FloridaMazdaClub.com car of the month. I guess piston heads appreciate the power of the rotary.

Here is a link for pix.FMC

Check out my "V" mount radiator and IC.

Oh, don't worry...it won't surprise me.

I've seen $10k...$15k paint jobs...

I don't think that paint job is that much, but it was still some serious money...over $5K?

Wow are you serious? It has the factory paint with a color change sticker worth about 100 bucks. Go figure? I hope to do a color change paint job after I finish putting on the side skirts and the wing. Most likley next year.
