Thanks for sharing with the rest of us Dads that can't get out there right now. Much appreciated and get some coffee on us!
thank you so much! appreciate the support!!
A miata in capable hands is quite a thing! Great driving dude just subbed
Such a relaxing video. Please keep making these, love them 👌
You were really gettin it done by the end. So FUN!
Always a banger video when you post!
That Mazda sounds really good, congrats for the pilot too
Really appreciate you posting these. You're living my dream! 😄 Ahh.... one day I'll get my BRZ on a track. One day... 😀 In the meantime I can enjoy your moments. 👍😁
def get out there when you can! thanks for watching
Sounds like the infamous ice mode kicking in. When I had my 2016 BRZ and had a race instructor on board who did the Continental series. we both had it trigger on midcorner trail braking ( I asked him for braking tips ). it always happened mid corner if any trail braking was applied (power cut timing even with gas pedal to floor)
Gentle with those pedals, brother. Trailing throttle oversteer is an evil beast.
This is great. I’ll definitely be watching more vids. I hope to one day get my rsx on a track
thank you sir! no time like the present to get out there 😎
02:45 Yes and no, some had it some did not, i had a 1989 NA (one of the first ones and that did not have ABS). NB same story some do some do not. From NC forward ABS & TCS is standard :) Great video love your driving.
gotcha! I figured that was the case and assumed that's why he was braking conservatively in t1.
thanks for the quick answer and for watching!
My NB has no ABS. I also ease into hard stops on and off track. I found out one day just checking out my stopping distance. Went tail happy. Adjusted the bias and now the fishtail mostly gone. Still stuck in my brain tho lol
I feel like at lap 5 and on you started driving outside your range, overall it was a sick track day it looks like
Righteous
That GT86 sounds so good…
That miata is flying 😂 hell yea bro
this looks so fun. damn what a sesh
That Miata is my boy Eric, awesome guy!
haha nice!! do me a favor and send it his way! I was talking with him afterwards and he wanted to see the footage I had, not sure if he ever found the channel
Nice driving Eric! I see no reason why you should not be running in the advanced group. I noticed you picked up on the Miata driver holding the turn 1 outside curbing longer. Widen that entry into turn 2 as much as possible.
thank you! I actually just moved up to advanced this year but since this was my first time at thunderbolt I decided to sign up for inter
great driving. Miatas do really well at thunderbolt, they barely have to brake. What are your camera settings? Do you have image stabilization turned off/on? I like how it looks!
thanks! most of my GoPro settings were on auto the only notable changes I made were maxing out the fov. and yes image stabilization def on!
Gas money 😎🏁🏃♀️
lol thanks for that dave!! 🫡
i like to watch these videos when i eat lol. i watch this video so much i know the track
awesome hahah thanks for the support 🤙
Strange watch racing without voice changers lol wish highway Swimmers would do more track days like this
Awesome video! May I ask what your lap timer/display setup is?
thanks, it's racechrono!
No abs for most , if its full racecar, it wont have abs even if it came with it. His early braking could just be not being used to no ABS cause i usually can get in on the brakes pretty hard with no lock up
Good vid, I know you were keen on the comparison with the Miata (MX5 here in Australia) but is that a black 2022 BRZ/GR86 @ 0:29 (Can't make out the badge)? If so, I thought you may have been keen to have a run with them and compare your modified Gen 1 vs the Gen 2?
yep! I would have loved to drive with him but I was just coming out on track and still needed to warm up the cat
Like your vids. What organization you running with at NJMP?
thanks! this was with masstuning
Ive only been at a track twice and neither time was I driving, but i thinks it’s hilarious that miatas tend to be the loudest cars on any given track
straight piped na cars are brutal. I've had similar experiences with e36/e46s and Hondas too lol
okay but how did it get that loud
Hey man I have the opportunity to do a time trial at pocono raceway this weekend but I am undecided what do you think of the road course?
it's decent but it really depends on the layout. you know which one you'd be running? I have a feeling you wouldn't be running north/south course like I have in my videos.
If he is running those tires and claimed that HP it differently sounds like it’s a SM(Spec Miata)
That miata probably only uses the brakes thrice per lap - T1, T5 and T8, and flat out otherwise with maybe a lift in a couple spots.
that's wild you're probably right. now that I think about it that might be true for me too 🤔 maybe with the addition of t6?
What do you use for a lap timer? Does it work pretty well? I have heard of people using an external GPS for a better refresh rate but heard using the phone isnt too bad
racechrono! I highly recommend it. also def suggest picking up an external gps, a phone's gps is pretty inaccurate they only update once a second. most external gps are accurate to the tenth if not more
bro in the miata is playing iracing in real life lmao
I’d be surprised if it was truly 120 hp. It may be more like around 140 hp or so if it’s a 1.8. I have a 2001 with ITBs and it’s around that power. Mine is a Base model and did not come with ABS.
could be! I don't know my miatas like that
Trying to learn so this is just a thought. It looks like you might benefit from going slower into some of those corners that the Miata’s can just rail, so that you can pick up more exit speed with that extra hp. Again I’m learning but lmk what you think
could be the case. in general I have a habit of prioritizing minimum speed over exit speed.
at this track I was mostly just learning since it was my first time out there. I'd say I was a good second/second and half off pace what I could do with more practice
@@dadhatsgo faster through 4 and get back on the throttle hard. Don’t worry about getting right and setting up 5 to be perfect. More time to be had by hauling ass through 4
...the old "in slow out fast" vs the "knock it down chuck it in wang it out" oh me bad it's four wheels not two moving on ....wonder if PAN PIANO been posting any hand and pedal control tutorials...her ...THOMAS & FRIENDS...was very inspirational even if not in a ...META TARO BLURAY....and the ..BOTTOM OF BARREGARROW ...kind of way ?
Hey. We’re you at the June jame with NASA? Was a great event I was there Sunday.
nope don't typically run with NASA!
@@dadhats if you don’t mind me asking what groups do you typically run with? Looking to broaden my horizon, I’ve only run with NASA and 24 Hours or Lemons 🍋.
Most NB racecars will not have abs
What track app are you using ??
racechrono!
Do you hand draw the map? :D
lol no that's a feature of the lap timer app I use
Where can someone do this in Virginia?
depends what part of Virginia I suppose. VIR is a top 3 track in my opinion.
I use this site to find events near me.

Well that was all very ...DOKI DOKI MORNING...for Team dad cats think safe to say more POPTARTS than KIPPER for breakfast ...
My NA has ABS
Any Chance of seeing you at NJMP on May 20th?
nope. planning on running with track night in america for most of the year
@@dadhatsyou should come run with NASA, great community and we party too
@@Hole_Motorsports I've ran with NASA once. was pretty expensive for only 3 sessions tho
@@dadhats was that at Mpact? The full weekend rates are pretty much in line with everything else I’ve seen think you get 4-5 sessions a day in DE but haven’t DEd in a few years now
@@Hole_Motorsports this was at njmp lighting. think it was like $350 for 3 sessions if I remember correctly
Who runs the event you are in
this was masstuning
Was that a GR86 at the beginning of the clip? Dude was moving.
yessir! dude was on a heater already one lap in lol
@@dadhats seriously was. Waiting to get one. Had a 15 BRZ that I adored.
Enjoying the content.
@@backroadblast6603 thanks man! you're gonna love it, I've heard that motor is way better than the fa20
@@dadhats I’ve heard. Definitely seems it.
You running a baffled oil pan? One thing I’ll be putting on immediately
@@backroadblast6603 nah I haven't had to yet since I've been running low grip tires. I've heard they aren't necessary 🤷
Get rid of the rev matching, a couple of us had it put on, and found it to be dangerous, turn it off, tuner will be able to tell you how
really? what problems did you run into? mines been solid, been running it like this for 3 seasons
That wasn’t a c6 lol
Hell nah no abs
It’s like watching two gay guys have a slap fight 😂
Na Miatas have trash stock brakes. We like to say “they leave something to be desired”
noob drivers are usually ready with excuses
