Driving an MX-5 on a GoKart Track in Atlanta

This was a surprise stop along the 2014 Mazda Adventure Rally.

I’m driving a 2014 Mazda MX-5 on the gokart track, at the Atlanta Motorsports Park.

This is basically my first track time.

This kart track has more changes in elevation than any other track in the world, including one that’s 43 ft.

More photos of the track here.

Here’s the whole rally blogged: #MazdaRally, and there’s links there to my newspaper stuff there.

Until this trip, I thought the Miata was a princess-y car, nope. It loves off-roading?! Huh.

 

 

Failed Footage from Thursday

I’d set out to film the welcome video for my security show, at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens.

Too much went wrong to use any of the footage.  Hello I’m headless.

So many shots like that. I had to use my Flip Camera (RIP Flip), which doesn’t have a screen to see.

I also came out covered in shadows.

This shot’s audio is full of strangers walking by loudly.

This shot accidentally worked out.

What a waste of good curls.

I did though, take some of the footage used it to learn the new FinalCut Pro, which is a big enough deal I decided to give it it’s own post.

Have a great Sunday and long weekend!

 

 

Hi Hi from Atlanta GA

On the road again, here we go.

I can pack for a week in 20 minutes.

It helps that almost everything I own is black.

Double rainbow.

Wait – I wonder if there is meaning behind seeing one… hang on I’ll look it up…:

Double rainbow – a symbol of transformation. Considered very auspicious should you see one. A sign from the universe something great is about to fall in my lap.

Driving driving boring straight driving.

I miss driving standard.

Flowers on the trees make a blog pretty.

IMPORTANT: I barely have internet, and looks like it’ll be that way all week. Sorry in advance. Really need a cel phone sponsor.
