Frequently Asked Questions

We have been organized since 1994 and currently have over 100 cars in our club. That's nearly 200 Miata nuts!

Our key values include:

• Have fun and enjoy everything our little sports car has to offer

• Build relationships and support each other

• Be open and welcoming to any MX-5 Miata enthusiast

​

We draw between 10 and 20 cars for each event. Our members cover the spectrum from singles with their first car to empty nesters with a weekend toy. There are cars from nearly every year. Some of us just like touring, while others seem to like working on their cars more than driving them!

Driving events usually have a fun-to-drive route with an interesting destination. Our intention is to make events suitable for the driver, as well as the passenger. Drives are always structured to allow participants to proceed at their own pace, stopping to sight-see, shop or stretch legs as desired.

In addition to drives we host social events such as a monthly Sonic Night, impromptu meet-and-greet events. and a holiday get together.

3. STUCK??

Reach the email list owners at: peaktopeakmiataclub+owner@groups.io

A few helpful tips: 1. Subject line for emails on this list will start with [peaktopeakmiataclub]

2. Membership is wide open, anyone can join. However...

3. The first post must be approved so that we don't get a pickup truck worth of spam. YOUR FIRST POST WILL BE DELAYED until one of the three moderators approves it, which may take up to 24 hours FOR THE FIRST MESSAGE ONLY. Once approved, post away fully unmoderated.

4. If your first posting is "is this working" expect an email from one of the moderators saying you're approved, but don't expect that message to go through. We'll end up with 300 "is this working" emails and nobody wants to see those and the dozen "yes it's working" replies.

Q. How does one post to the new list? A. Direct the email message to peaktopeakmiataclub@groups.io Q. Will this list handle attachments and inline images? A. Yes. When adding an inline image, use the message "add image" icon for more reliable results than cut/paste shortcuts.

Q. Do I need to join this mailing list to be part of the club? A. Being on the list is not a requirement of being a member of the club, however lively discussion takes place and spontaneous drives are also announced on the list. Q. Does groups.io cost the club anything? A. The base level doesn't cost the club anything. Q. Why not ditch mailing lists and just move to Facebook? A. Not everyone is on Facebook, but everyone has an email address. The club does have a Facebook page, feel free to use it but know many are not on that forum. Q. I'm stuck and the new mailing list doesn't seem to work. A. Email peaktopeakmiata@gmail.com and we'll assist.

Q. Will the club be making announcements via the groups.io list? A. Yes! Q. Why groups.io? A. This closely mirrors what Yahoo groups already had, there was no financial impact, was recommended by Yahoo, and had a decent privacy policy. Q. What about the privacy policy? A. Feel free to read it: https://groups.io/static/privacy. Q. Is this list moderated? A. After the first post the list is not moderated. However, if someone starts spamming the list with spam and off topic material the moderators will take action. That was not an issue with the Yahoo list and don't anticipate it being an issue with groups.io either. Q. How do I unsubscribe? A. If you do not wish to belong to this group, you may unsubscribe by sending an email to: peaktopeakmiataclub+unsubscribe@groups.io
