Thanks Eric! It was really great to meet you and get a better insight into just how *****-out insane your car really is! Watching it on course on Sunday was just something else entirely. Congrats to you and Randall for taking the 1st and 3rd trophy spots in SSM for the weekend!

I had a rough weekend - wrong car, wrong tires, etc. but I had a ton of fun so it's all good (except for the cold rain monsoon on saturday)!

The rocket juice is called a Billy, he does have a CSP national championship, and that does mean a bit more than a jacket in some other classes.

Great seeing you again eric, thanks again for like the 11th time letting me hop in your car for the challenge after I blew up 2nd gear again, **** that thing accelerates like holymoly.

No worries at all man. Good seeing you again too and congrats on the Trophy.

What do you mean it accelerates like "holymoly"???? It's just a little stupercharger car

Hope you get your car fixed and look forward to seeing you in Wilmington in a few weeks.

6 speed 3.636 is a decent combo ill break about 10 5 speeds for every one 6 speed using it for autocross. I was shocked to loose about 12 lbs with the 5 speed Quaife however. Even lighter now that big side of my 5th gear is ground down to nothing more than a spacer sleeve. less rotating mass. Most of the weight difference between the 5 and 6 speed is rotating assembly parts.

Check out the % of time we spend loaded up over 1.5g. No wonder we were so out of breath when we got out of the car after every run.

Car was pretty good at the Wilmington Summer Pro. I drove well...just red lit away a time that would have landed me in second place....then coned away a time that would have....you guessed it.....landed me in second place. We were the fastest thing there with fenders. Only vehicles in the 31's were my car and 2 of the shifter carts.

Had both these runs been clean, I would have been 2ths out of the lead and solidly in the challenge. As it stands....my co-driver won by over a second.

This is what you missed if you didn't make it to the Wilmington Champ Tour.

Is that your car in the background? September issue of Sports Car, page 7.

Yes. And it's also in the "Pick to Win" section.

Fastest Miata at Nationals second year in a row

On a side note. I need to find the best cylinder head builder in the US. I need to send him some parts for a post mortum. Those of you who were at Nationals know all about my issues....when I got the head off the car today....it was A LOT worse than I had expected. We are REALLY lucky the damn thing didn't fly apart on Randall's last run.

Pics will follow

All I know is that his intake valve clearance closed way up. He can say more. I'm too afraid to look at my intake valve clearance or my oil after the amount of time my car spent banging off the 8500 rev limit on the plane side course.
