Max Samoylov intro: Miata + ae86
#1
What's up my guys, I'm Max. I'm a computer science major just transferred from blue ridge community college. Lived around Harrisonburg for like 13 years now. Currently have 2 cars I bought, my Miata and my ae86. As you can tell, I'm into those lighter weight rwd Japanese cars.

Miata is a 1990 with like 200k miles on it. Didn't run or drive when I bought it, changed fuel pump to start it then changed clutch to get it driving. It's got some stiffer springs but otherwise all stock. Has a vlsd! 
Also bought the ae86 as not starting. Changed rotted fuel lines and got it driving. It's got a s13 ka24de swapped in from previous owner. I mainly put in the two front seats, got those wheels, front bumper, and other stuff. Has a welded diff, still the weak sr5 rear end. Rides on bumpstops. Gutted interior from prev owner. No hvac system or power steering. Not pleasant to drive but it's cool I guess.
I used to drive a right hand drive bmw e39 540i wagon.

Autocrossed my Miata several times, took it once to a Shenandoah drift event a while ago. Also took my ae86 to a drift event once. I want to get more seat time with grip and drifting, but first kinda want to condense into just 1 good car instead of 2 mediocre ones haha. 

Pic of my Miata drifting. No pics of my ae86 unfortunately.
