Mazda Miata
SCCA Street Mod 2

THE DRIVER
For the 2005 season, Steve will be autocrossing a very tricked out Mazda Miata in the SCCA Street Modified 2 class. Look for Steve at various events in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Iowa. He will also be attending a few SCCA National and Pro Solo events on his way to the Solo II Nationals in September.
THE CAR
Before it's career as an autocross car, Steves Miata started life as a Base Model. It was purchased new by Bob Palmblad in Florida, and has never seen a Northern Winter. Bob developed a well-prepped Street Modified 2 (SM2) contender, with the car taking 2nd and 7th at the 2004 SCCA Solo2 Nationals. Now it's all Steves! The biggest challenge for Steve in 2005 will be learning how to drive the little beast to somewhere near it's potential.
