A quick-ish lap, a couple passes… fun times. Could still do it faster though. The car is prepared by Ed Railton and sponsored by Premier Auto Service. Cam is a Contour HD, shot in 720p.

SCCA Spec Miata, starting from the back ends in crash
6 Comments | Posted by admin in club racing
Check out some of my fastest laps here: www.youtube.com Hardship during my 3rd SCCA race weekend! A stretched connecting rod in the engine during practice meant the car needed to be taken back to Premier Auto Service by owner Ed Railton, who then worked through the night in order to rebuild the engine and make it ready to race. That meant I missed qualifying and had to start in the back for Regional #5. There were about 60 cars in the race. I’m not sure how many I passed. My coach, Ric McCormick, was on the radio spotting for me. Then the 08 car missed a shift. My car has street exhaust so it’s quieter than most of the other cars. When the 08 missed his shift I thought it was mine. I looked down, saw that things were fine, and when I looked up I was on a collision course with the 08. I jinked to the outside, because the right side was filled with cars (the 08 and the 10). The 08 didn’t see me, and when he looked up from correcting his gearbox, he saw the 10 to his inside. He must have reacted by steering to the outside slightly, which was enough to punt both him and I to the outside. The first hit was very light, and it only put some tire donuts on the door. But as we spun and I came to a rest, his car hit mine in the right rear, which bent a couple suspension components. The car didn’t track straight after that and could not corner very well, so I had to retire. Fortunately the fix was fairly simple (compared to rebuilding an engine) and I was ready for qualifying in the …

This is me autocrossing my 1968 El Camino for the first time at the Midwest City Sheriff’s practice track hosted by the BMW club of Oklahoma City. I was fairly impress by my results, thanks to the full Hotchkis sway bar kit. Tons of fun and good people.
Check out my footwork on this circuit: www.youtube.com 3 laps of Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in a Spec Miata, prepared by Ed Railton and Premier Auto Service. The 3rd lap is the fastest I’ve driven the Miata yet, a 1:48.48 according to the timing transponder (the onboard timer is usually a couple tenths off). The time was good enough for 13th overall, in a field of 60 cars. Ric McCormick was in my ear, on the radio for the whole thing. He helped me with setting my pace and managing traffic. It paid off hugely. In the 2nd lap the red car passes me and gets a bit sideways. Both our laps are blown. He was faster so I let him go. Having a rabbit to chase helped.
Running the Street Tire Class with my stock Dunlops WOOT! I also have the Spec C suspension setup/components from Japan.

A great race with six lead changes, bump drafting, lots of oversteer and tight clean racing. This was a fight till almost the last lap at Mission’s River’s Edge Roadcourse in Mission BC. This was also the Sports Car Club of British Columbia’s 60th Anniversary Weekend on April 14th 2011. Best parts on the video: 6:15(Very sideways entering turn 4) 11:03 (Loosing the back end on turn 1 allowing Mark to get along side) 13:30 (Catching up to back markers and bump drafting on the main straight) 15:20 (The intense battle begins and we start pushing the cars to the ragged edge till the chequered flag) After the battle Mark and I both drove our cars home on public streets!
