Las Vegas Miata owners or Meets???
 

Hey man, I live in Vegas and I have for about a year. I spent 5-6 months straight trying to find groups or anything in Vegas but they don’t really exist as far as I know. I work and live on nellis AFB, I’ll bump this thread to see if anyone wants to do a Vegas “locals” meet in the future

Hey what’s up Grantpro, sure that would be. Do u have an IG?

I do but it’s mostly not about my car, i typically post of my wife and day-trips, that kinda thing. it’s gratatant. But we should find all the other dudes in Vegas and set up a small meet.

koo I’m down 👍

Hey guys, I'm in Vegas. There are a few of us in the autocross groups out here, and one or two decently powerful turbo cars.

Nice, how does one get involved in the across cross groups ?

https://www.lvrscca.org/ is the website. From there on Facebook, look up LVMazdas, Sin City Miatas, and LVRSCCA Fan Page.

Thanks for the info, I definitely wanna start getting out there with this miata. I just finished my turbo build on her. Just waiting for a tune.

If you want local the usual answer is Kyle Leblanc (FB). If you want remote, I've been looking at 18psi/Vlad on here.

thats helpful thanks, I’ll look him up. No FB here but hopefully he’s on Instagram. My Instagram is alfredgonzalez77, got couple pics of miata build on there

Thats autocross looks fun, I’ll definitely look into it

I did some research into SCCA around here and have been waiting to start until I revert back to N/A so I don't get my ass handed to me. I also haven't made the move on anything else like a set of wheels/good tires. I'll check out the groups and make it out to some miata meets. I'm on FB as well. I probably won't end up getting my turbo stuff until I'm long gone from vegas, but it'll be fun to meet up and possibly get started in autox.

I'd say run it as is. Have fun with the car and learn it. There is a BRP supercharged Miata out here that is pretty competitive.

Either of you guys the ones we bought this shitbox Miata from?

Def-not me cap'n. My shitbox is sparkly silver.

Lol nope, but I'll take that hard top. ;)

I don't have a ms2/3 to reliably tune her, and since we're trying to get rid of debt I was gonna tear it off and get some money out of it until I get home and start making more money. I don't make much now :rofl:

not me, I’ll buy that hardtop and the rims tho 👍

I have a POC on a partial assembled MS. I can see which one it is and go from there. Feel comfortable doing some soldering?

Yeah I'm not the best at it but I'm also not the worst. I've got a DIY IR head tracker that I'll be working on in the next couple months so I would be more comfortable after that. depending on everything(including wife approval) I may be able to do that. Just like our last convo, it kinda depends on price but also on when I get all my credit card debt paid off, which might be like 5-ish months. Us military dudes don't make much, to be fair.

Ah. Well if either of you run into either of them, they were nice kids that seemed to know more or less what they were doing. Car is fun after we set it up.

Wheels and hardtop not for sale, haha

Those are some beautiful S2s. Can't wait to get my hands on a set.

They're pretty nice. I'm still a 6UL guy myself but he didn't want to spend the extra cash... plus we're out of 8" 6ULs right now anyway.

The guy that owns that car is in St George, so the Vegas miata scene is about as close as it gets to him. @Filthy Casual

I was up in st george last weekend! pretty coincidental. Eventually I'll get one or the other, but until then I'll stick to my tirerack special from the PO.

I'm hoping to get into Cyber in the AF then get into the civilian market after my reenlistment and then have all the funds to do the things with the turbo.

Trying this tagging thing again.... @Filthy Casual

I used to live in Vegas until 2015. Air force took me to Tucson. I visit at least once a year for an autox.. I run both of those pages on FB. They will need to join the LVMazdas buy/sell page first before they can join the main page. Its to help separate the garbage/spam request. Once they show up to a meet, (someone meets them and are proven to be human), they will be added to the main page.


You talking about Mathew Lewison (Matt Gummy Grip)? The LV region is missing some proper prepped miatas.

Lol, yes I am. You still haven't visited recently, nerd. This is Mike :)

Can't visit if I am in durka-durkastan. lol

There will be a meet on Sunday the 24th. 7pm at Wahoo Fish Tacos at Boca Park

I’ll try an make it, if I can get
my car tuned by them hopefully

is it a autocross meet?

Just a Mazda meet. Although the old Regional Exec and others who autoX will be there.

I'll try and make it. I'll be recooperating (read drinking) from promotion testing.

ALSO CANT FIND GROUP NEARBY, iM IN BHC, AZ 85 MI FROM LV AND WOULD GO , TO OF MY BUDS ALSO HAE MIATAS

Heard it was a pretty good meet. 12 cars or so. If you join the LVMazdas Buy/Sell, keep an eye out for the next meet. You're more than welcomed to join.

Is that a website? LVMazdas Buy/Sell

Yeah it was a fun meet, cool to meet people. There was a big turbo RX7 and another miata besides mine. It's a facebook page. You should just get on facebook, it seems like its where the entire car community for vegas is.

I missed the Sunday meet. I'll catch up with you guys sometime. Either at autox or at a meet.
