Build history

A very clean, fully stripped build for 2023, everything replaced, no expense was spared, clean and current SCCA logbook. No wrecks, dnf’s or on-track failures. 31 total track hours (~2100 mi).

Aside for the extremely clean build, the standout component is the cage. Designed specifically for the car and the SCCA SMX class, incorporating FIA bars, 3D modeled stress analysis and computer controlled pipe bends and folded plates. Complemented by the pro installation from SharkCage, one of the premier builders of Miata cages.
