Video Description
First time at the small and narrow Castelletto circuit. Great fun for slow cars. 
First session almost dry and learning the track. Subsequent sessions full wet
Bonus! My son Aki had his first trackday experience and we had amazing fun!

The poor miata is consuming a lot of oil and the performance is decreasing. Probably time for an engine rebuilt

The 2001 Miata NBFL 1.6
- Rear torsen differential
- Final 4.1 ratio
- 6 speed gearbox
- Exhintake mod with high peak characteristics (not efficient, but fun)
- ME442 (poor thing once had 120 derp horses, now they are all drunk in oil consumption...)
- 6 years old Vmaxx coilovers... time to change
- Aggressive alignment -3°front, -2.1° rear
- 0 toe all around
- Cold intake from Wish (works surprisingly well...)
- Roddisons brake pads
- Hankook RS-4 195/50/15 (highly recommended for road and track!)
The whole thing is made to have a very peaky power band (poor's vtec yo!) for the "feels".
