Global Time Attack - Round 1 - Road Atlanta
By Wes Dumalski
Quality images by Sarah Forst and mediocre shots by Wes Dumalski
Attacking time is a funny thing… All sorts of things happen during these 2 day race weekends and no one knows what mother nature or Newton has in store for us. This past weekend at Road Atlanta both of these personas had a chance to show us who's boss and utterly prove that we are in control of very little. In this case the Saturday forecast brought likely promises of rain and when the teams hit the track to sunny skies they were in a fury to set down fast laps as no one knew (not even the weather people; do they ever?) what would unfold. As luck would have it the rain held off and as teams pushed ever further it was Newton who would prevail on this day. Through 11 wins in a row and numerous track records the Professional Awesome EVO VII would turn its last laps in anger, its life cut short by Road Atlanta.

MotoBlog: Vibrant Intercooler Installation
MotoBlog Guest Post
As with almost anything in performance modifications, once you add a few items here, upgrade a couple things there, you soon find a new bottleneck. Some might have existed all along, as others introduced themselves as your project progressed. Case in point was the intercooler on Motovicity Rep Bryan Spears’ 2002 Miata project car.

MotoIQ Radio: AEM's Paul St. Clair, Playboy MX-5 Cup Driver Beth Chryst, and Global Time Attack's John Naderi
By Justin Banner & Kerryann De La Cruz
AEM's Paul St. Clair will join us once again to give his background in Automotive Racing, AEM talk, and the future of AEM. Beth Chryst who races in the Playboy MX-5 Cup will come on after him to discuss the MX-5 Cup, a little about her career, and we'll get into a discussion about Mazda and its involvement in motorsports. Then, a man who needs no introduction, but I'll give him one anyway! From the Global Time Attack series, John "Nads" Naderi will join us to close out the show. We'll talk about the recent controversy on Nemo, the GTA season to this point, and what we can look towards for 2013 in GTA and Time Attack in general. We'll probably even discuss cutlery and the perfect steak knife to have in your kitchen!

Project Miatabusa part 16: What's That Noise?
by Dave Coleman
There's a complicated string of excuses explaining why you haven't heard from this project in a while. They involve lots of things that have nothing to do with Miatabusas, like buying 90-year old homes, filming zombie movies and machining medical devices, but there was one car-related issue that contributed to this big delay: a horrible, horrible noise.

 Project Frankenmiata - The Ultimate Coolant Re-Route
by Dave Coleman
Our Frankenmiata makes almost double the stock power output, and can endurance race in 100+ degree weather with the coolant temp staying under 200 degrees. In more civilized weather, it often stays below 180. There's some magic in our cooling system that I'm going to reveal now for the first time. Of course, this is the first time because I've been too lazy to do it before, not because it's some big secret. Still, it sounds more impactful when I use that "first time" line, doesn't it?
