May I ask how often you go out and fly kites when there isn't an extreme red flag warning?

Back from Nawlens...

Went from 70* there to 'holyfuckwholefttheacon?' here...

It's drizzling here, changing to snow about noon....

I'm sick of the Z not running

I should do something about that

I think once the oil pump gears come in, she's going to the shop. Gonna let Kevin get her running again and then break into the front timing cover for me. Oil pump gears, oil galley gaskets, ATI pulley (should probably order one of those), and engine mounts. Should I do a new belt while everything's apart?

Yes, belt and pullies if needed.

Well, that's the thing. I'm not sure they really "need" replacing. Just thinking as more of a preventative thing.

That's not Kevin's style, so no point in asking him. He won't recommend replacing them unless there's a problem.

The Miata is a convertible, right? Just tie a kite onto the roll bar when you take it out to the track
