Which one should I take the Miata to?

Here are my runs from inside the car https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymmi9gddWXw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMwZZrNOxKA Randall's day one from outside (didn't get the cockpit camera started on his fastest run) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxFo3zPPOTw Randall's Day two (51.9) https://www.yout...

Here is some video from inside my car from the Test N Tune. The way you all looked at the car everytime I put it in gear was worth all the work

I've used Alumalite for years. 4x8 sheet from Advanced Plastics was about 130 last time I bought some.

Scheduled meeting day is my Birthday and on the rescheduled day, I'll be in the Dominican Republic......someone take good notes for me

I might change the oil and clean the wheels off.

Apparently you don't have to be a Mazda Motorsports Member to vote. The link to vote is at the bottom of the page. If you feel I am worthy, I'd appreciate your vote. https://www.mazdamotorsports.com/2018/11/07/september-spirit-of-mazda-nominees/?fbclid=IwAR3fQ6oPK1AcKjDmHubP0hvH0oYDawslSH8dFs9XwdkeP...

You just thought you were finished seeing campaign adds!!!! I just noticed that someone has nominated me for the "Spirit of Mazda" award. I don't have much to offer in the form of campaign promises and I'm sure all my "opponents" are just as (if not more so) deserving than I am. I'm blown away that ...

And wheel / tire height plays a HUGE role in powwe application.....and i have to run REALLY short tires

11" wheels with only 275s on them

I tend to think if you cant go over 1/4 throttle considering the amount of tire you have, the weight of the car and a low 500hp range....I'd say thats an issue. I'm within 50 hp of that, weigh way less and have 35+% less tire on the ground

If that question is directed at me....I'll say 1. The Pro Solo Finale this year

It's a balancing act. Horsepower for sure is an area of diminishing marginal returns. I would imagine with the amount of tire you run, putting down 610 HP would be more than possible. I dunno what your car pulls in a straight line in 2nd gear, but unless it's close to .9g I would say you aren't out ...

I ended up with FTD in a borrowed car (52.5 something) that takes more mental bandwith than my car. I have NEVER shifted so much. It made things MUCH more challenging and rewarding when you got it right....but I gained a whole new respect for the BSP Mazdaspeed Guys. That section by the ditch was a ...
