Why didn't I grow up with parents like that??? Damn it!

Yeah… Tommy is a pretty lucky kid for sure. That will be a nice step up for him after running the Miata. My Dad bought me a Honda mini trail when I was a kid and I thought that was pretty cool, Lol.

Hopefully the new chassis set up and tires balance the car out a bit and make it more predictable. Once you get that car figured out it will be so much fun! I watch the good drivers in the Miata’s out at PIR and they don’t even let off the gas until the 300 to 400 foot marker coming off the main straight into the chicane. That would be a rush.

Have fun on the next run... look forward to more video from the next California trip.
