    thats a sweet idea. i'd like to know the answer to that as well..... (hmmmm 1/2 lbs burger....:yumyum:)

    those miatas move around corners so well. to bad they don't have our AWD advantage

    Depends on what you consider an advantage. The miata would probably out handle a subaru any day of the week.

    i was thinking of the offroading and all year round use advantage as well as the initial grip and grip in marginal conditions. but yeah, a miata would probably smoke most subi's in pavement handeling, their light weight and overall responsivness is hard to match (exept for lotus who imo owns the track)

    At minimum, you're going to want written permission on this.
    There are regs on how far a grill must be from buildings and maybe vehicles, but i don't know the distance off hand.

    Does anyone have pictures from last night? There wasn't a big turn-out but there was still some cool stuff going on. Like the Line o'Legacies and some cool bumper stickers.

    Last night I totally forgot to talk to people about the cleaning myths of keeping a subaru clean and shiny.
    Is there going to be a big turn tonight?

    On Friday it's doubtful since most people will be off watching fireworks and spending time with family and friends at home.
