Mazda Miata with a LS3 V8

Aaron Leichty built this Mazda Miata at his company The Winning Formula in Louisville, Kentucky. The car is powered by a 480 horsepower LS3 V8 crate motor with an Aviaid 3-stage dry-sump system sitting on a V8Roadsters subframe. Power is sent through a Tremec TR-6060 six-speed manual transmission through a Getrag G80 differential out to 949 Racing 15×12 wheels with Hoosier R7 tires. The car rides on Ohlins DFV shocks with a Mazda NB manual steering rack, MiataHubs billet front hubs, and Stoptech STR-42 brakes. The body features NoPro fender flares, Garage Hundred-One widebody front bumper, and a APR GT-250 wing.

  1. Like the Wright brothers first airplane there were people 7 to 10 years later never knew airplanes existed same goes for Corvette Miatas as hopefully for your permission an nostalgia I’m going to copy and paste this address do a bunch of Noobs as if voice video claims the best way for a Miata is to turbocharge the stock 4-cylinder engine and I’m trying to explain to them you can burn your candle at both ends get a brighter light but for a very short time so hopefully some of the noobs can see what real people do with real race cars that go really fast
