Talking Spec Miata autocross @ California Speedway video!

Ran my 4th event and got video this time. Lots of fun but I still like road racing more.

Nice job. Your 2nd and 3rd runs were good improvement on the 1st one.

If you autox anymore, you might like to get one of the top drivers to ride along and coach, as your car has a lot left in it.

Ended up second to last in STX but thats the wrong class for my car anyway.
Finished 162'nd out of 214

Just ran STX so I could be done before lunch rather than be there all day if I was in STS2. No one would protest since I am way slower than the cars in STX anyway.

I'm suprised nobody had a problem with this. It's like running my FD in X Prepared. Odd, but oh well. Glad you had a good time.

It's pretty much a fun run, that's why no one had a problem with it. I agree though that there is a lot left in that car, I'd get ride a long or some coaching to get even faster, I'd say there is probably at least 5 seconds left in that. not bad for just starting out, good luck.
