A few months back Kelley Blue Book got the crazy idea to go spec racing in a Miata. With a little guidance from some smart folks at Mazda our first step in preparing for fender-to-fender racing was to send our driver, KBB's Micah Muzio, to Skip Barber's 3-day Mazda MX-5 Race School. In this, the first of a 3-part series, Micah learns the ins and outs of driving on a race track and what it takes to win behind the wheel of Mazda's popular little roadster.http://www.kbb.com/mazda/miata-mx-5/To follow Micah on Twitter, please visit: http://www.twitter.com/kbb_micahmuzio

Wedge4Life says:
Mar 10, 2012 - Nobody who honestly loves to drive and knows what that means will say the Miata is gay... the people that do are looking for a car to enhance they're 'image' and making sure their hair looks good when they drive in it.... by contrast people who own Miata's are probly having so much fun driving it or even racing it, they probably couldn't care less what other people think.
