Nonsense.

My comment was only that the local clubs are not what I am looking to participate in.

Oh c'mon, Jimmy, we're all friends here just joking around

Anybody that wants to hang out and talk cars sounds like good company to me.

Any thoughts on the two local Corvette clubs? Even though I no longer own a Miata, my wife and I are still members of the Niagara Miata Club. Being a past president, they can't kick us out. Some of our closest friends are in that club. But I'm not learning much about Vettes from them although two others in the club also own Vettes.

So who is could locally to work on the cars? Never needed a mechanic for our Miatas since they simply don't break down. Who is good with exhaust systems? Thanks for your input.

BlacknBlue recommended J&J in Elma for Corvette service. I highly recommend Mufflerman on Delaware Ave for exhaust systems and muffler work. They did my system for my Camaro SS and did the muffler swap on my Corvette. Great guys and they LOVE working on performance cars!

A group of us in the Niagara Miata Club regularly ran SCCA Solo2 for a number of years. I haven't done it since 2010. It's a blast and you develop some excellent skills.

Thanks for the recommendation. If you go to Mufflerman make sure you ask for Jason, he is a car guy and does excellent custom work.

Those Miata's can humble you really quick on the autocross course that's for sure.

Mufflerman on Delaware ave. in Kenmore are the best,been going there since the 80's. They can custom fab any exhaust period!

Bailey Tire on Englewood ave. Buffalo, are great, Hunter road force balance and Alignment. Great prices,just tell them the tire you want,been taking my GS there since I bought it. Never a scratch on my chrome wheels!
