It was at an airport in 54. One way in one way out. They broke into 6 other trailers. Broke the doors open on my camper also to the point where I may need to replace the doors.

If anyone is on the production or mazda forums or any others that I dont know of, if you could repost this over there and get this out to even more people so we can catch these dirtbags.

Will be scouring vortex for a few weeks.... Are than any ricer boy forums local to your area? That's a good place to search for that stuff, those people tend to try and off load on their local car forums. Happens here in Albany...happens there too I would assume.

Heard they found it!

THEY FOUND THE TRAILER! The sheriffs office called me at midnight and said they had found it and I went and get it back! All they seem to have taken is one of my jacks and the air compressor! They may have the guy in custody already. The trailer was at a neighborhood just on the outside of Wesley Chapel. The property was an old abandon mobile home. When They found it, there was my trailer, another trailer, a few dirt bikes, atv's and go karts. Thank fully the car is fine, the tires are all still in the trailer. The dirtbag had been up to this for a while. He also had an outlaying building that was his storage unit for all other stolen parts and tools. Thank you to all of you who posted this around and made it known to the racing community. Also a huge thank you to Pasco County Sheriffs office for being so on their game. Reported and found within about a 15 hour span. Sitting with the deputy, detective and forensics team until 4am was the best feeling in the world. Note to self now, move into stronger secure gated storage area and get better locks!

Thank you again to all! This is why I love going to the track because everyone in the end is there to get your back and help out! Thanks so much to everyone!

Great news. Sounds like a real genius at work. They call it "Knuckleheads in the News" on the radio around here.

James, I have room for one more box trailer @ My place.
Bail bonds guy in the front office, BA Tea party guy next door. Me in the back.
Full 24hr camera, lots of guns.
State troopers in the complex next door.

FWIW I lost all of my tools and much of the shop contents about 11yrs ago.Pissed me off a bit.
If the dirtbag guy has a Mac Tool box # MB 3200,I would like to meet him.

That is refreshing to see our law can still get the bad guys!
