Spec Miata Rolls Over

Spec Miata Rolls Over in turn 10 at Summit Point. The data indicates a speed of approx 85mph at turn in...too fast for the setup of the car. After the first correction he is into the marbles on the outside of the turn...and going into the trap sideways does not help the situation. Driver OK, car amazingly OK as well. Cracked the hard top and busted the drivers side window, mirror and fender. Raced the next day.

If this is that blue KingRat car, I think Bret at RP Performance revived it and now it's a rental that my friend just drove last weekend!

Nope, wrong car - the car you are talking about is featured in another YouTube video called "SCCA MARRS 8 Spec Miata - Wilson Flips", among others. That car was named "The Deer Hunter" as it was also the car Wilson was driving when he hit a deer in the chute during the 12 Hour race a few years ago.

I'm not a fan of gravel traps.

I'd definitely rather roll than hit a wall if I had a rollcage like that.
