It looks great! Thanks for not doing a white shirt, and I like the design too.

(I searched, and didn't find anything I could think related to this...) {Flyin Miata Targa Newfoundland Shirt}

Glad you like it! Mike did the shirt design, I think he did a great job. And yes, no white!

For those who don't know, those shirts are sent to those who have supported our Targa Newfoundland run for 2011. We've still gone some left! http://www.flyinmiata.com/projects/targa/help.php

I'm pumped, it might be a while though as I'm in Canuckland... I wonder if I'll get it BEFORE Targa?

I am so excited. I ordered my tickets for my flights two days ago. Can I get a shirt at the event? I have been watching Targa videos all day (not at work, no, never)!

Sharp T!

Lessee ... got my airline tickets, know where my passport is, got a room reservation or two and a friend's house for the nights I don't, got some ground transportation lined up, got a hoodie, got a rainsuit, got a GPS that works in Newfoundland and a cellphone that won't , got not enough cash stashed away ... Yep, I'm ready!

I'm at the stage where I'm looking at a car that's half disassembled and a big to-do list, and calculating how much time is left before it goes on the trailer. I'm behind - I do not like being a last-minute wrencher. That's how stuff breaks.

Snipes, we may have a few shirts with us at the event, but no guarantees. We didn't print a lot of extras. If you want one, better to order it now and we can bring it along.

Ruh oh... did you guys tear into Nancy?

Well, Nancy still needs seats and a few other things. But it's the Targa Miata that has stuff all over the shop. New rear springs, some adjustments to the front lower control arms, exhaust work, some extra skid plates, hood louvers, dyno tuning...you know, the usual.

Ah, so the rear springs were maybe the culprit for it being so loose? It was FUN, but seemed like it was a handful.

That was part of it. There was also the matter of R1Rs needing much less pressure than other Toyos (which I discovered afterwards) and various other settings that weren't right at the time.

I got my shirt today! Way cool. It has replaced my GRM shirt as my "going out" shirt.

Maybe some day I might actually get something with buttons and a collar. :D

When you said targo shirt, I was think targa top, meaning it was either a wife beater or the sleeves were ripped off...

I, too, received my Targa shirt and it immediately went into the rack of honor (next to my GRM shirts, some autox shirts, and a Javelin Trans Am shirt). Awesome design!

I gotta wear a tie at work, but when I go out, and wanna look nice, I, too, wear a GRM shirt!

As promised, here's a sneak peek before it gets announced elsewhere. The printers accidentally printed twice as many hoodies for the crew as we ordered, so we're selling the extras. Limited to stock on hand, and only available to FM team members and patrons - ie, if you got a shirt, you can get a hoodie.
