Get 'em while their young, Chuck. My daughters were in their mid-teens
before they were exposed to "Cardboard Tunnel Syndrome" which is rampant
among TR6 owners but is not necessarily contagious in the general (sane)
population or passed on genetically . I must say, it's the first time as a
father that I have worried about my children NOT having a sickness. They
do, however, exhibit symptoms of a different, (yet equally disturbing)
disorder whereby they salivate at the sight of - dare I say this? - Miatas.
Their symptoms also include spells of delirium during which their eyes
glaze over and they rant uncontrollably about noisy, smelly, hard-riding
Triumphs that inhibit their ability to go to college.
If only I had been able to plunk them in a car seat in a TR6 when they were
younger - before they developed an immunity.
