<VV> RE: Roger and Corvair owners

[Secular]

  well...some have already reported on the modus operandi in the 
  Miata forum, I really don't know about other clubs, but I used 
  to own a 3.0 CS/i -- I can assure you that because of a similar 
  elitist mindset, most of my friends on that forum decided to "go postal" 
  (I mean post pictures) instead of narrating the fix - take a look:

  ummmm.....this owner was merely checking the front spoiler [using 
  a similar thumb technique we employ for belt tension/stiffness]. 

  Anyway, as ya'll know, Corsa is comprised of 99.99 % male members, 
  soooo, in my opinion, we should have a serious powwow before jumping into 
  using similar visual methods :))
