Dein Projekt: Tom’s Trackday Miata

2. Dezember 2018

My name is Thomas aka Tom, 33 years old and living in France. I’m an industrial technician, and driver/car mechanic of my white turbo NA (1993).

I discovered the miata and the trackday experience thank to a friend and…I bought the Miata in January 2010 haha.
It’s about a standard miata 1600, and I have modified it progressively between 2010 and 2012.

I started with the chassis, this change allowed me some very good times during the trackday. Each trackday made me happy.
I exploited his potential in trackday for a few years, the time to build my house and a large garage for her, to have a place to tinker even more haha.
Recently I have added a turbo, which increase the power and performance of the car. This winter I polish this set up, and at the spring I will test it on track with the friends.
I love working on it as much as drive it on the track.

For now, I’ve been driving on the Nordschleife and some local circuits (Chambley, Chenevières), but I would like to travel to France to try other circuits (Dijon-Prenois, Nevers Magny-Cours, Alès-Cévènnes, …)  and why not in England (Cadwell Park, Silverstone, Brands Hatch, …).
