Jay Lamm's Dyno Day Party
December 5, 1998

The weather was bleak and cold (in California terms) but that didn't dampen anyone's enthusiam. Miataphile's from all over the Bay Area showed up for Jay Lamm's Miata Magazine Dyno Party.  There was plenty of great food and time to chat with Jay, Barbara Beach and others. Jay's place is quite the pad. Not only an office, it also serves as a living room, kitchen, bedroom and... his garage! That's right! Every man's dream. He gets to park his cars in his livingroom. As he was driving his Alfa back in from the dyno run, I yelled to him to make sure he wiped his wheels off good before driving on the carpet.

A Ferrari takes it's turn on the wheel. Stinky gets saddled up to the dyno.

Dyno result: A blazing 91 horses.
No, this isn't the 2000 Miata.
A '59 Buick LeSabre gives it a whirl...
129 horses and 230 lb/ft of torque. 
Not bad for a 38 year old beast.
Inside the palacial Miata Magazine complex, some people getting an advance preview of the InTENse, The Miata's Tenth Anniversary Book. Thanks to Jay for a great Miata day. See, I got all the way through one of these without mentioning the windstop. Thanks to Jay for a great day.
