April 2012 (Miata of the Month) Discussion Thread

[morr]

There's something about a miata hurtling down the corkscrew! It just looks right!

It looks so... natural

[DavinRS]

So since I wasn't able to submit my last picture, I went to racetrack to have some pictures taken for this thread. ;)



Unfortunately, I was only to get one, and they put this big watermark on it...

clean NA for sure, why didnt you submit your Miata into the contest?

Here's the two I almost chose. Same track as the one I submitted; Hallett Racing Circuit.

Climbing out of turn nine aka "The Bitch".



Heading into the pits at the end of a session.

Did anyone notice that your tires off the bead

no it isn't, you're seeing a slight side angle on the right.

I had to choose from a few, too. I picked the one that needed no introduction, the corkscrew is pretty recognizable from that shot and I love the composition.

I was considering these, too:


Laguna Seca, turn 5 (passing on the outside )


LSR, turn 9 (Rainey Curve)


Streets of Willow, turn 13 (Skidpad)


LSR, Rahal Straight (setting up for T6)


LSR paddock (Miatas L to R: thatDguy, me, Slevin, Emmi)

the first two are great because it gives a sense of speed!

I did earlier in the month, but it wasn't a rolling shot. Some admin told me that I had to have a shot of me on track, which I didn't have... so Zzzz.

Then I got bored with it and forgot about it for a while. ;)

[EMMI]

linh's shot is priceless.
