^ looks great! Is there a preferred Miata for SM or SSM? i.e. 1.6 vs 1.8, NA vs NB?

Saw this while browsing NASIOC this evening. More pricey but a few good options for someone looking for a track car.

Miata's don't go 130 at least NA ones, 110 was top speed at Summit Main. 125 down a hill once.

A lot of those parts are not Spec Miata Legal.

If you are going to build a Miata racecar sign up for the Mazda Speed program and get dealer cost on parts including all the Spec Miata stuff

You will need to submit race results to keep it current but they take a while to request them.

I knew about the race results stuff and because I am not planning on racing next year I don't think I would qualify. I wrote down the part number for the SM suspension kit and am calling Mazda today. We have a wholesale account with them so hopefully they aren't much more than through the racer program.

The point is you can sign up and buy everything you need way before they need results.

I had a account for 5 years before they asked for results (this Spring), so now mine is on hold.

Really? Awesome! I thought they only gave you 12 months to get the results. I'll look into that aswell.

I am instructing for the VW event tomorrow at Shenandoah with Track Daze.

Do they normally require long sleeve and long pants?

Looks like we get a hour of track time from 5:30 to 6:30, just in time for the storms



All times are GMT -8. The time now is 01:05 AM.
