      Nismo Jdm nah it needs full on over fenders and a aero kit of some sort

    Just flares and lips. The kit looks a lil too basic but at the end it's up to you

    Never caught it this early! +1 for flares + lips! Miata is looking great :)

    First one definitely, hot boi is sick, but the first one just looks more your style.

    Stock with flares for the win. Hot Boi stuff will just get wrecked and look like hell much sooner.

    The amount of effort and energy that you put into your videos is appreciated. They are so easy to watch and I am such a big fan of not only what you do around the garage but I aspire to produce videos 1/2 as awesome as these.

    Lug soldering tip. Fill the lug halfway with soldier and stick the cable in. The heat will immediately flow into the cable. Add shrinktube and your done. I did prototype work for Ford's for 11 years. (Yes im old) fyi all connections had to be soldiered, even pins.

    I prefer the stock bumpers and flares, thats more because i like seeing the meaty tires being visible on the back, and the round rear works really well for that

    Hey man I kinda had a shit day, but I got a dank gas station burrito and ate it while I was watching this and it made my day a little better. Thanks man

    keep the karting in the vlog. its good to see some variety thats still car related. if i lived in florida i would happily paint your car for free. are you doing any of the bodywork/paint yourself? what about exhaust? you seem to be decent with the tig torch.

  • @SOLOIIguru
    @SOLOIIguru 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    So glad you gave Ben the 'ol look back flying bird flip. Nothing like some good 'ol hand-gesture shit-talking amongst friends to make you smile after a shitty day. Thanks for making me smile!
    p.s. I used to Kart a lot as a kid the secret to winning is keeping a couple banana peels ready to toss out in front of competitors to spin them out. Or green turtle shells.......those work pretty well, too. Just beware of the spikey blue shell!
    p.s.s. for real, though, I did Kart a lot as a kid and I can see that you are trying to stay full throttle around most of the corners, which is good, but on the ones you feel yourself scrubbing through the turn with the front end, instead of entering full throttle, simply lift off the throttle slightly, so that the front tires can bite and then get back on it full.

    Holy cow, a group of us were standing around inside and saw that wreck through the window. Didn't realize it was you. You were definitely much faster than the 20 and clicking off some pretty quick laps after your pitstop. I think thats the same kart I had in my race after pitting, super fast but also loose. A couple things you can do to help are use up the whole track some of the turns you have an extra foot you could have worked with. Then it's hard to do, I struggle with it but pay attention to where you want to be when you exit the turn, you'll more naturally hit your marks giving you more speed out of the turn. Im signed up for next season so if you need any help let me know we'll get you going good!

  • @MX304

    Tip on soldering those big cables. Tin the cable and the inside of the connector with solder. Slide together, crimp, then heat to make the solder flow.

  • @DeadFront1319
    @DeadFront1319 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    You gotta use the "jump" technique when you're trying to pass and it's that close, jumping slightly outta the seat revs the engine, it's almost like a clutch kick. Those few rpm's are all you need to make the pass.

  • @TorqueMediaau
    @TorqueMediaau 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Dude, next time youre doing one of the big lugs, stick the lug in a vice, heat it and fill it with solder and then while its still liquid feed the wire in and hiold it till it solidifies.
    so much easier than feeding the solder in after the wire has been inserted.

  • @saltyjohns8687
    @saltyjohns8687 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    more KARTS GOOD SIR! and go full HOT BOI! you and the miata deserve it! unless you think the color and stance choice would be better suited for lips and Flares, but i just feel flares are over done on 240s and miatas imho... plus there is a sick fast back from th UK i think that would look dope wide body and a full KIt! in the end do what makes you happy bro!

    Do they ever have actual karting events there, or just rental karts? I really like that track layout. Lots of places to pass and it rewards momentum. Might be worth dragging my 125 stock moto kart over for an event some time.

    And have you thought about doing non-drifting racing with the Miata? Autocross? Track days? Time attack? You seem to have a natural aptitude for grip racing.

  • @Victor2924
    @Victor2924 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Both pics look good. But hot boi requires big lip wheels also. Those karts look so fun. You should do a front mount an rear moth go pro to be able to catch both sides of action sure you got 2 go pros.
