I love that your NC has a captain's hat on the dash LOL

Great video with good advice. My tips: - Clean and wash your car, especially the windows and mirrors (it will also help to spot some hidden damage) - get some good sleep - be respectful and kind And remember: it's a trackday, not a championship race. Don't take it too seriously and have fun 😘

Tires and pads! So important! That by far is probably the most important for me. Proper tires and pads will keep you from going into the bushes, and pay for themselves in saved paintwork. Don’t forget about nutrition, sleep and hydration, also, wear sunscreen, long sleeves, a hat, and stay out of the sun as much as possible. It’s a physically demanding sport, not just sitting in a car!

Track food is the best.

Essentially, bring a support vehicle with all the goodies(Fluids, tools, air pump, snacks, cooler)...the wife's SUV, etc... nothing fancy, but it's nice to have a place to work out of.

What tire pressure do you suggest for the Miatas?

Can you comment on how the RF model fits into the roll bar conversation?

As always, check with the organizers. The top isn’t really structural.

Question, on a somewhat hot day do you run your AC if you have one?

@FlyinMiataVideo 5 ай бұрын

That dumps a bunch of heat into your AC condenser, which basically preheats the air going into your radiator and affects its ability to transfer heat. So while it's nice for the driver, it will stress your car's cooling system more. If you start to see your engine temperature rising, turning off the AC is the first thing to do.
