<< Phil,
But your car is still 80 runs "younger". See how much you saved and I'm sure
Nanda didn't enjoy all that "work" :-)
-----------what are you saving your runs for, they will still accumulate
over time. Miatas are the toughest cars I have driven. The fact the design is
so simple keeps them from being tempermental beasts ;), and allow the driver
to just worry about their own abilities and endurance, rather than about the
cars. The temperature gauge never budged, the brakes showed little to now
signs of fading, nor the clutch, everything worked as designed. Mazda didn't
design it to sit in a garage, but rather to accept every punish redline run
you can throw at it. The goal was 100 runs but fuel guage kept creeping
towards the E and the generous AAS folks were ready to go home.
