Forget about me and that Miata for the next 2 yrs, I am committed to making at least one appearance at the SCCA runoffs by 2016.
After that i may take a year off from racing to buy a retirement home down south (near a race track).
THEN I can plan on whats next for me....

Being a peninsular state we are somewhat isolated from the masses of racers. NASA SCCA and PBOC all have low turnout for events. We are in the proccess of recovering but I wouldnt want to see the books for the club treasurers. What im getting at is the competition and participation is thin unless ur running SM. I made the trek to RA and ran in Santas Toy Run in DE and could not believe there were more race cars there than DE cars. Florida is the opposite at the moment. Plant yourself far enough north to run with South East but enough south to join us at Sebring and Daytona once a year.

Yup! Top notch post 
Completely killed any desire I had to step into a Miata. THANK YOU!!!
E30s are pretty fun, but they have their own slew of problems too. Mine was quite enjoyable, but left me stranded twice (my fault, I guess - it was a 27 year old car. I should have changed the fuel lines and the clutch slave cylinder along with all the other stuff I did restoring it).
I wonder how rampant cheating is in SE30. I always knew SM was a big giant "if you're not cheating, you're not winning." And even more than that, "if you're not cheating, you're not competitive."
I remember somewhere in the country is a spec Ariel Atom series... that looks like fun. SRF also looks pretty fun too.

Sadly, I'm thinking w2w racing is going to be something that I only get to watch on TV, unless I can somehow increase my earnings by 2-3 fold.
I think i'm going to start looking into karting...
