Here's what's probably the biggest automotive oops I've ever made. Not even the robustness of a Miata could save me from my own stupidity.

This story won me Miata.net's Rotten Apple Award. I used the gift certificate I won to buy a set of proper brake pads for the track. The car went on to run many more autocross and track events. It's now retired and has a new home and owner near Atlanta.

Fun read, thanks for sharing. Sounds like things ended okay with the new low-mile engine!

It worked out great - that engine lives on today. It was a heck of a way to fix the short nose crank issue of the early '90 motor...!
