I'm at 140k, and need to do a timing belt. This will be my first track event btw.
I will probably live right?

I think my car is pretty solid. It has good brakes, rubber, all new belts aside from the one in question, new rubber all over, coilvoers, had it cornered and aligned today, sparco seat, harness, fluids...what else do I need?

Has the tb been changed once already? Many people go 100k intervals, some just wait until whenever it snaps.
The incedence of tb failure is unlikely. The incedence of having fun is absolute. You're throwing the dice, betting against other failures, but that's just part of the fun. Like getting a bj from a girl you've never seen before at a club without asking her name first.

usually they are a crap-load of spec miata guys willing to help you for parts if you are in a jam....if seen someone swap out a diff that was blown on Sat., abused on sunday...and swapped back that afternoon.
