Soul red weights 15lb more than white car! wow! interesting fact

@setra23 5 лет назад

I think soul red is about 5 different coats of primer/paints.

These Guys are the best , Great car built by great people, truth is that the car is made great by the Long Family, I own an ultimate Miata, and I love it Thank you Glenn

This is so cool, and even cooler that it is right here in NC! I know the Miata market is crowded, but if there is anything LRR makes for the NB that is not available elsewhere, please let us know. There are plenty of us that commute in stripped down Miatas with 4 point harnesses that would love to be able to buy parts with real pedigree, not marketing babble. It seems so much work is done to make specific racing parts, but perhaps a lot of the knowledge gets lost trying to make it work financially. That's a shame. I think there are a lot of us that want to take our street cars to the level that LRR provides, but at the end of the day each one of us is a one man band.

Very cool 'how it's made'-style video, well done!. I would kill to make it to this series one day; just need to raise that $58K ;)

@charleshill9236 3 года назад

Very interesting shop tour. Love the cars and watching the miatas race is a blast! One question. Why do you remove the seam sealer when you're building the race version?

@romeocano1919 Год назад

My best guess it replace it with seam weld to stiffen chassis on top of roll cage

@DrVaticinator 20 дней назад

I want one

@PaulCuenin 4 года назад

@PinChE_LoCo 8 месяцев назад

What transmission?

@SloanZurnToto 6 лет назад

I always thought the Miata race cars were factory built by Mazda.

@miichaelneri4687 Год назад

They are now.

@carracuda3920 7 лет назад

Surprised that they don't try to bump the power at all. (I know they swap the exhaust but still seems minimal)

@mattwright2529 7 лет назад

Mike Berry I understand how more power is useful but the weight of a Miata is what makes it a good track car if a person who buys one wants more power they can add it ya know

@BoziTatarevic1 7 лет назад

They run a custom ECU along with exhaust and intake which gives it a mild power bump but the tune gives the drivers a lot of features like flat foot shifting in order to perform better on track.

@patthonsirilim5739 6 лет назад

brb was able to hit 190hp with just intake exhaust headers and a tuned on the stock ecu and that with a cat this should be able to hit the same numbers or higher since it have a straight flow exhaust with custom ecu i think it should be pretty rapid since its 100kg down on the stock mx5 which is already a feather weight car with a lot better tires suspension and stiffness
