RACE REPORT: Enjoy our coverage from the 2025 David Love Vintage event at Sonoma Raceway hosted by CSRG:

Happy to see all Z Car Garage clients in the exciting Historic B and C Sedan group qualify and finish the race.
Tom’s 510, Noah’s Bluebird Coupe and the Tse brother’s 510s all had a blast achieving their personal best times.
Enjoy the in-car video and paddock highlights all on zcarblog. Next race is the Corkscrew Classic at Laguna Seca June 20!

Thanks for sharing Alvin.

Beautiful 510’s!

 

I have to admit what really caught my eye was the “vintage spec Miata” heading.  My son just bought an NA Miata.  We pick it up Monday.

 

My daily driver is a ’71 bluebird – exactly 1 year older than me.  The Miata is ’90 or ’91 - 11 years older than my son!  So funny to think of that as an “old” car.  : )  Older to him than my cars are to me.

 

Put it another way – my first “car” was a 1949 chevy pick up.  23 years older than me.   It was definitely viewed as a “vintage” car when I was driving it in high school.

 

My 510’s are generally 30 years older than Corey!  All his life that’s all he’s seen me in.   They all seem normal to me but to him and his friends, they must look even older than my old chevy truck did to my friends.

Carter,
Glad you enjoyed the report! 
Yes, it sounds a bit odd to consider a Miata as a "vintage" race car:)
Having the Miata join in the fray is a great way to get folks into traditional, vintage racing. 
Congrats on the NA purchase. They are pure sports cars that will put a smile on your face, no matter what vintage the driver is!
