Drummersrs old Miata, new to me
 
6 Attachment(s)
Hey guys! I recently bought a 94 Boosted Miata from a guy in Philadelphia, and after poking around on the Internet, I found out that the old build thread was on here! Anyway I thought it was cool to see my car be built and know exactly what has been put into it. I plan on continuing to modify it, race it, drift it, and enjoy every second I drive it. How many people remember this car? Here's some pics of it since I bought it.

This doesn't belong in the same sentence.

drifting it means you hate it and want to kill it

Or you have wayyyyy too much cash to put into tires.

Drifting isn't about using tires. Drifting is about wrecking cars.

Besides, the Miata is a terrible platform for drifting. The low polar moment of inertia makes them terrible for holding a drift angle. It's like trying to tap dance with one leg in a cast - sure you can do it a little but the guys who aren't handicapped will kick your ass everytime.

JRWeeks 09-08-2015 12:26 PM

Oh, I completely agree. The Miata wasn't designed for that kinda stuff. I personally think drifting is a waste of time and money. But to each their own, if that's what gets your socks off. I was merely stating that in the course of wrecking a vehicle, you will most likely burn through a mountain of tires aka cash.
