Tech Day, Ladies Day and Mud Run
by Marcy Hotz
On a cloudless, pleasant Saturday morning, we arrived around 9:15 at Dave Weiskoff's large shop, DCAR (Dave's Certified Auto Repair) in Waunakee.
Hank N says Dave knows all things Miata, having been one of the BMC's official Tech Advisers for years. All the men and a few women joined in a circle surrounding Dave and began
asking questions about how to prepare cars for winter storage; should we buy turbo-chargers and what type; what are the best kind of tires for our cars; etc.
The questions and answers kept coming, and the session could have happily lasted all day (but it didnt).
Meanwhile, in another section of the shop, the women sat at tables pre-set with craft supplies to create and decorate gift bags and boxes. Other embellishments
were laid out on more tables from which we could choose colored flowers, die-cut pictures and forms, sparkly things and ribbons which would be glued onto said bags and boxes.
This we agreed could have gone on happily all day too (but it didn't).
We wrapped up about 11:30 and drove to a nearby Culver's or McDonald's for lunch where we could renew our acquaintances and schmooze before the drive.
And what a ride it was! The first leg was 42 miles of twists and turns. A rainbow of 16 cars followed Hank and Laura up and down and around the picturesque countryside,
enjoying the sudden greenery of the landscape after a cold, wet, grey April.

strangest cars you have ever seen. From "bubble cars" to a motorcycle that folds into its own suitcase.

There will be an option of driving on the track during racings lunch break. See CALENDAR OF EVENTS! for complete information.
Per Road America all veterans with ID get free admission to the race.
With our wonderful Wisconsin spring weather I recommend bringing extra warm clothes along with lawn chairs and an umbrella. Also, race cars can get very loud so having ear protection
is recommended.
