Spec Miata Build
#1
Posted 07-06-2012 05:06 AM

I have a 90' donor Miata that I bought from Johan Schwartz before he went off to do bigger and better things.
He had already started some work on it, getting it prepped for SM but, I was fine with just maintaining it and doing small build steps here and there while I was doing HPDE. I am in the army as well so build time for me was quite limited and as well as track time.
I decided a long time ago looking at my situation I would be better off spending the money and having the car finished by a professional.
This is where I need help. I was doing HPDE with NASA TEXAS region and had talked with many people about where to go and the better builders in the area, most saying MER.
I am currently deployed and don’t have the opportunity to ask around the track so I figured you guys are the next best option. I am trying to find a builder in the southeast region to finish building my car. Really hopefully would be in 4 months so that I may be able to hit the last event of the year on leave. (REALLY HOPEFFUL WISH)
Thanks again for any help,
Mitchell Weirich

If you are in Texas go with either Ed Gilfus, John Phillips or MER.
If North Carolina I would go with Advanced Autosports South, Also know as OPM Autosports!!! (Hi Tracy) or Ti Speed
Any of these teams will give you a great car.

I was stationed in southern Oklahoma before I deployed and did run with NASA Texas.
That being said, my car is currently in North Carolina at my home, and I will be moving back to NC not long after to returning to the states.
Sorry again for the mix up, and thank you everyone for the suggestions!
