Spec Miata laps at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca

Check out my footwork on this circuit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28ijoZwpmbU

3 laps of Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in a Spec Miata, prepared by Ed Railton and Premier Auto Service.

The 3rd lap is the fastest I've driven the Miata yet, a 1:48.48 according to the timing transponder (the onboard timer is usually a couple tenths off). The time was good enough for 13th overall, in a field of 60 cars.

Ric McCormick was in my ear, on the radio for the whole thing. He helped me with setting my pace and managing traffic. It paid off hugely.

In the 2nd lap the red car passes me and gets a bit sideways. Both our laps are blown. He was faster so I let him go. Having a rabbit to chase helped.

@blixtenkarting It's called a "Wink" mirror and you can get them from a number of manufacturers with different numbers of panels. Mine's a 5-panel. It's really awesome because there is no distortion like a normal wide-angle mirror. Cars should come standard with these imo.
