plenty of miatas run out at the track. Roll hoops are pretty cheap and we know a guy who can make a good custom cage

If you do want an E36, take a look at my blue car in the shop. It was being prepped as a race car, basically an M3 now with a low mileage drivetrain. $5k is what I paid, I was trying to flip it and make money but now I just need it gone. That is pretty much the price you will be for a decent miata and it's a little bit quicker lol
