TAG | miata
I won a new Hero2 GoPro and thought it would be cool to try some new camera angles out. I have always wanted to do a helmet cam, I think the camera needs to be a little higher for next time. I did this off the chin part of the helmet.

2012-04-21 – Spec Miata Engine Explodes on the Track – Barber Rezoom Event
2 Comments | Posted by Guest Author in club racing
My stock 1.8L with 92K miles on it explodes on the Barber track. Luckily I did not get charged for oil cleanup (Barber is really strict in terms of giving you a bill for any cleanup or damage to their facility – but it is a nice track). This was a stock engine except the timing wheel had been adjusted per the SM rules for 1.8L. There was a hole in the block for number 4 cylinder and bits of piston head had come out the hole. I will take the engine out and examine the damage more closely. But now I need a new engine

2012 Spec Miata Tropical Endurance Series – PBIR
1 Comment | Posted by Guest Author in club racing
Qualified on pole at a 1:34.9, and had fast lap of the race at a 1:35.3. Driving the BSI/SB Motorsports #21 Spec Miata with codriver and car owner Keith Bass in the Tropical Endurance Series. Keith started the race and I finished after our pit stop at the 35 minute mark. This is the last few laps, chasing down the Autotechnik car for P2 in class. I catch him on the last lap of the race (which I didn’t know, I didn’t have radio contact with my crew), but slide a little too wide and leave the door open… A mistake I won’t make again!
