You guys might want to check out the current (June) issue of GRM.

In the "Pros versus Schmoes" cover article about Spec Miata prep and racing, you can catch a couple of glamor shots featuring OMR's Sam Henry and Derek Gresham. Also, Chris Edens from Little Rock is on the cover.

Chuck "ZoomZoom" was telling me about that article. I'm going to pick up a a copy. I heard that's a great magazine for autocrossers anyways.

Met Sam this afternoon. Great guy. Just got done reading the GRM article. Sam is right about the oil levels. In fact, Dale Earnhardt Sr used to build his motors to run 5 psi of oil pressure. You just need enough to get everything wet. I sell alot of high volume and high pressure oil pumps to various engine builders. All you get installing one of those over a stock pump is, you pump all the oil into the heads. That's worse on bearings than running low on oil! :wink:
