Boston Cars and Coffee

Went to Boston Cars and Coffee this morning. Met up with NEPOC at the movie theater beforehand, then headed over to tradecenter 128. We had pretty good parking, but not 5 minutes later Chris calls...MAF died. So Marc and I hopped into my car and went looking for him...right in the rotary, awesome! I provided the tools and Chris and Marc got the car going, enough to get to the meet.

It was raining and overall pretty dreary out, but inside the garage not so bad. A lot of cars there, including a guy with an FB RX-7 that apparently I had given the thumbs up to somewhere in Salem...small world.

On another note, this weekend is the big Mazda weekend at Limerock Park. I managed to afford a ticket, and therefore will be driving Macy on the track on Friday :D Plus watching some racing Sat/Mon and going to the OWTS show Friday, and hanging out with people on Sunday...good times!

2009 OCC Mazda Meet

So finally home from the OCC Meet, and it was good times as always.

Started off bright and early on Saturday...well not so bright, was raining for most of the ride down. Met up with several people at Liberty Mazda, then cruised down the pike to the Charlton rest stop, and met up with the bulk of the group. Finally cruised to Waterbury and picked up three more, and headed to OCC.

We weren't able to park together since there were so many Mazdas but no worries.

Day went great, remembered to wear sunscreen this time, and there were plenty of goodies that OCC handed out for coming to the meet. Also won a shirt at a raffle, as well as buying a Mazda shirt, and getting a few others from random places...Mazda wardrobe is getting bigger...

Chris (subspeed) won best Mazda6/Speed6, Bruce won best Miata and Jeff from NETC won best 'other' with his '88 GTX. NEPOC members also won quite a few prizes from the raffles, which means another work meet is in order!

The aftermeet festivities were fun...to make a story short: beer, food, great friends, ricers, etcetc.

This morning we gathered again at OCC for some hanging out, photo-ops and such, but ended up all rolling out before the rain hit too bad. Cruised back with a bunch of people and slowly trickled down to cruising home alone.
