A for effort.

But I don't have any A's. Just little green dots.

 

Do you plan on autocrossing at all? Time trials?

That's where the Miata will shine, and will improve your driving.

Not quite sure a Miata should be a drag car.

 

 

Yeah, def not going for drag but friends wanted to go to qualcomm tonight so i said why not.. But i wanna hit up Adams and willow to see the true "rainbow" this miata will do.. ollz.... but yeah... (Time attack tracks)

 

Thanks Flat for the A... :)

Well Deciding to add to this.. No oics right now but will take em tomorrow.. Rolled the fenders more so it clears good.. had and unfotunate event happen on the freeway the other day.. Arrow is the miata and orange are cones.. Well i was going pretty fast at like 3am and the freeway was partially blocked off... but what i saw at the top of the hill sucked.. a fuckin cone dead center.. wtf... hit it pretty hard and i tried going left but didnt want to crash into the ditch and didnt want to go rigth into the other cones.. so now i am missing a chunk out of my bumper.. goodbye fog light and brackets.. cracked the front of the bumper too.. later i saw that it hit the fender, side of my door and smudged my new wheels.. :( cleaned it up but cant hide the broken bumper...

WTF Where are you at? i count the Honda to cool car ratio to be too low!

5:1!!!

lol dude that Miata reminds me of the compadres that drive their 89 Chevy 1500 slammed with 13 wheels sticking out 12 inches

Like this but more pronounced.. ollz.

Haha.. Thats My Friends house.. Honda to the Max.. very nice ones though... But yeah...

 

Cage was awesome building it.. stayed up till 4am making it with a friend...

 

And my Miata is nothing like the Paisa mobiles with the lil wheels sticking out like that.. I had rolled my fenders for the +12 offset but since i have now the -0 they do come out a lil more.. im going to roll them again to pull it out a bit more.. 1st camber to see what i clear...
