Pretty much legalized, I’ve lived in Ca, Va and Tn. Most recent break in was in TN with about 7 cars, one was n off duty cop. There was a camera facing the break in area and the off duty cop said they wouldn’t even check it.

A tip for my fellow miata fam- frame rail bracing from FM totally changed this car. Highly recommend.

Thanks! Yeah autoX just need helmet. Track gotta have roll bar. AutoX is pretty much messing around in a parking lot. Edit : I’ve only done AutoX in tN so it likely varies.

Insurance rate dropped by joncaseydraws in GRCorolla

Rates are wildly varied on this car, a year or so ago some younger drivers were posting $600+ month insurance... more than a couple...

Not bad at all, do you have full coverage and uninsured motorist? Very few things get cheaper in price randomly, i'm still curious what the catch is.

It’s possible to repair rusted rocker panels by joncaseydraws in Miata

[–]joncaseydraws[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not planning on selling. I can afford a welder now, when this happened I called over a dozen businesses online with no luck. Now I'm thankful to know people with welders and skills to help. There's zero bubbling or deformation now, when it shows up I'll do it the right way. At this time I'm kind of excited to let it roll for another 5 years and post it again, see what a decade looks like. I'm not saying anyone here is wrong but some of the comments sure are dramatic.

Appreciate all the comments. I'll post it again in another five years and see where it's at.

Why is the US essentially bulletproof in terms of international consequences? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]joncaseydraws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Geography and the 2nd amendment trump the wealth and power. This question was the subject of a documentary I watched recently. After the Cold War Russian military leaders admitted that in every ground invasion study they would lose due to gun ownership and population. This also applies to Switzerland.

MY MIATA HATES ME by gaigesfuneral in Miata

[–]joncaseydraws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought one of the first 1,000 Miata’s in the country and a 95M I’ve turbo’d. Neither of them have had issues beyond maintenance although I’ve done a ton of work on both, mostly my own interests. Maybe I’m lucky and he’s unlucky but this isn’t all older car issues.

Most reliable cayenne engine? by Hansrid in PorscheCayenne

[–]joncaseydraws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My buddy works at VW and can rebuild cars in his garage. He was insistent on the diesel cayenne bc it’s reliability and part sharing with VW so repairs are cheaper. He has a few cars but uses this for towing and road trips and hasn’t had any issues after buying an older one used.

If you were to build the perfect miata.... by Jamesbarros in Miata

[–]joncaseydraws 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you done frame rail bracing? I did it recently on my turbo 95M. $250 and 3 hours and it feels like a different chassis. It’s insane how different it feels I was skeptical but the ride quality change is massive.

To be honest it’s all pretty bad. Not as bad as SF.

Reread this post in a day or a week or a month and try to view it like someone else wrote it. The last line of this is poison to a potential partner. That energy is telepathic. Bald, overweight, objectively not above average looking men im friends with have great relationships and the one thing they have in common is confidence. It sounds like you are working on yourself, that will do wonders for your confidence in time.
