Dad calls last night while I'm out on a ride. I call him back later in the evening...
"Got a proposition for you. You're talking about taking your 318 to a driver's school in March. How would you like to do one in January?"
"In what? I might not be car-ready by then."
"In a SpecMiata."
"Whose?"
"Well, that's where you and I come in...(his cousin) is going to build one, to regain his competition license (he used to race IMSA with Factory Mazdas in the 80s and early 90s)."
"How much?"
"Well, for about $1500, that would be 1/4 share in the car."

Dilemma, dilemma...what would you guys do? Having a 14-month old at home, and on one income, this would be nearly impossible. But how often can you get into amateur racing so cheaply?

Argh...
