That time I drove six people to the tavern in the Miata at Hyperfest 2k16

Old Autocross Vid.  The kid riding along was in MM and forever hit me up with ponzi schemes for like 3 years after.  Anyone remember that dude's name?

I couldn't get the vid to play but from the description I'm guessing...Barry Dai?  Asian dude?  He did the same thing to me :lol:

Odd that it's not loading,  just some anti-lag DSM autox vid of me before I knew how to autox.  Yeah Barry!

I just looked back at email, after reading this. This guy David Pascucci sent me an email on his behalf in 2010 and he cc'd Barry. Weird.

...and as a parting gift on the day they moved out, may have deposited their old, crumbling, rusted bike straight into the pond's  sludgy bottom, sticking up like a giant middle finger by riding it down the hill and jumping it Evil Knievel style right off the pond's bank, with a smoke bomb tied to the back for extra showmanship.

there may also be a video of this, but i certainly would not know where that is.

i know where it is...

i have a TON of pictures, but i've posted some of the highlights. i have back-ups of back-ups in old external hard drives...

some OGs may remember some of these, dating back to '03 and '04. i think some of the newer ones were from '09

we took a lot of these kinds of pictures in our time at JMU


and novice-ly photoshopped them as well...

[Senor_Taylor]

Could someone please add some context to these photos? I'd love to know who was in them and what was happening.

[rherold9]

Wow, please. Need more. I love seeing all the baby face alumn and cars.

[WRXtranceformed]

Man I'm pretty sure that was my first WRX next to the black Eclipse in that car show shot. I distinctly remember the intercooler sprayer water pot haha

I miss those nights at Dave's Taverna....

[Sully]

I thought Maeng had the first year WRX or Sti? (Idk, I remember it being something special)
