I’m going to race against a 14 year old!

After watching my 14 year old son have all the fun last season, I decided to buy another spec miata… for me.

I’m going to race against my son.




I bought the 98 car. My son’s car is the 35 car near the back of the pack in this photo.

Cool combining family and racing is very special.
Is he behind because you get the new tires every time?
My wife enjoys helping and spotting for me during race weekends too.

And should something go wrong it's not like you wrecked the 911.

Great!
To paraphrase Conan the Barbarian, what is best in life is "To crush your children, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their mother." Crush him like a bug UB.
