Default New from SF bay area

Just jumped ship from an NA Miata to an '05 NFR AP2 a couple of weeks ago. To be honest, I wasn't originally planning on getting an S2000 so soon, but I got it for an absolute steal that I couldn't possibly pass up. It's a bit beat up on the outside, but mechanically decent and came with a clean title, so I can't really complain.

Currently trying to clean up a few small issues and autocross it on a semi-broke college student budget. Might even try to track it if I can stuff my oversized 6'3" body underneath a rollbar this summer. Regardless, I'm loving the car so far, it's such an excellent drive. I only have a couple of bad pics right now, I've been too busy enjoying it to get any good shots so far.

Welcome man, like you, I got my S2000 way ahead of my own timeline because I came across a deal that was too good to be true.

A bunch of us are going to be here this Saturday:

Oh cool, I do have quite a few dents that need to be pulled. Do you happen to know if people are going to be hanging out in addition to dent repair and dynoing, or are people just coming and going as soon as they're done?

No idea, it'll be my first time at such an event. I'm sure we're all going to chill and relax there too. You should sign up and meet a few of us!

Thanks! Unfortunately not quite as clean in person, with a big gash in the hood, a bit of peeling clear coat, and a bunch of scrapes.
