Mazda's take on Runoffs Contenders: Spec Miata

Danny Bender, Jim Drago, Justin Hille, Tyler Kicera, Chris Haldeman and Alex Bolanos lead in the hunt for Spec Miata glory at the SCCA Runoffs

 

 

Might we equally add in the drafting partners of those listed as potential win/podium people.

The draft is over stated in this article IMO.. The draft will be worth more than Mid Ohio, perhaps the same or less than the back straight at Road Atlanta. But I will work with that guy in the picture, we managed to gap three 50 plus car fields this year and finish 1-2, seems top work pretty well.

Did people want to move there MAZDA decal up ?

I didn't see the peoples champion in any of those combos

[Bench Racer]

This peoples champion deal, is this sort of like NASCAR's favorite driver of the year? Y'all know what Harvick has to say about that!!!

Seriously John, I look forward to meeting you at the Runoffs.

Uh, sir,  that's my guy, not yours!  If for some reason I am not up to the task feel free to let him push you for a majority of the race.

When I go down the list of drivers, there are a lot of really talented people in the field,” Kicera says. “But honestly, I feel like all of the heavy hitters, a lot of the guys that are going to be contending for the win, with the exception of a couple of names, were at VIRginia. We had a 55-car field and I managed to come away with the win both days. That gives me a lot of confidence I can at least be in contention at Indy.”


Wow, this is some serious confidence.

Okay people, its officially one month away and the smack talk is really struggling.  Time to spice it up some! There are just so many unanswered questions:
 
15.) Who will win the Spec Miata golf tournament that we should have?!.

Is there any interest in wasting some of our down time playing a round? And if so, what day is preferred?

And non golfers would be welcome, someone has to drive the drink cart and laugh at those playing.

I am probably the worst golfer in the world.  When I step up to the tee, it is actually a danger for other people within 100 yards of any direction. So it will probably be a good idea for me to not touch a golf club. However, I am so down to be a caddy/drink cart driver!

Will you be in Sebring drag and working for tips?

[MPR22]

I may hit the 2000 post mark by the end of the week, what else can you do when hurricane is going to trap you at home for 5 days.

That may have to come back out!  You gotta give the People what they want!!!

The "Peoples Champion" is lucky that I am not going to the Runoffs.

Danica, I'm a Scottish golfer. Once that ball goes in the woods and it usually does, I'm not leaving it behind. And I always hope the water has nothing in it that will eat me. I start by 8 AM so I can get finished before dark. And I rent my clubs, golf cart, run a tab for meals and refreshments because when I get finished, I have enough balls I found to barter all my fees!!  Heck, you should see my tool box of found sockets, wrenches and ratchets from walking race tracks.
