I am not a Miata guy by ANY means but there's just something about this one lol. The fact that something so small sounds so menacingly evil is hilariously awesome.

It really has been a hot minute since we’ve seen the Miata. I didn’t realize how long it has been

@@kings_nemesis5995 Also, it's been the offseason. Also. It's hard to justify taking a week+ to go travel around the country to drive when the views are terrible since people prefer the shop content.

This video made me miss the og miata. I can't believe I found your channel off the $800 trailer video over 6 years ago. To see your skills and dedication grow over time has been a blast. I think alot of fans hold the miata near and dear to their heart just like you and we cannot wait for the rebuild!

🤔 I'm not sure when I subbed or specifically what video got me hooked but it might have been a cluch kickers event befor they moved to the freedom factory 5ish years ago😂 time flys when you are having fun lol

The quick description of what the rebuild will be at the 3 minute mark just put a smile on my face. The Miata is gonna be a hell of a beast.

Need that old intro music for the miata vids. For the vibes. Glad this thing is coming out and getting some love.

I know you've addressed that before. Plus the chance of a copyright strike. It's just nostalgia at this point. Still here, all these years later. Love what you do. #2681-20 gang @@Taylordrifts

The terrible irony of this. I've been following you for a few years. By far my favorite channel. Decided YESTERDAY to go back and watch the build of this car since it was before I followed you. Heck, I didn't even know it was red once. Keep doing what you're doing. To see the evolution of your content over the years is epic. Even the early stuff was excellent and it's obvious how you've been able to grow so much.

Taylor and cleetus are the epitome of the phrase “driver mod”

One of my fav KZreadrs. I’ve been on a long deployment so I’ve had downtime recently to watch your older vids, also Marathoning Sloppy’s “dontbsme” build. Thanks for what you do brother.

Best chanel on youtube mane. This was the car that got me into this channel, into cars period, and into working on my miata. For me, this is the goat car of youtube, up there with the ferrari frs.

Honorable mention of Tuerck and the FRS, love that thing

I’m so excited to see the Miata back! For whatever reason it motivates me to work on my LS swap in my 81 trans am.

love that the helmet mic is back. I love the real time jibber jabber in line and during the run.

"gonna take it easy on this lap" proceeds to ride the dudes door through the entire track lol

Its really cool to watch Taylor's in car footage. You can tell why people enjoy driving with him. The fluidness in hand motion with the steering wheel, handbrake grabs, just everything is top tier. Well done brother.

I've never liked miatas but man I've missed watching you rip this thing! Good to see you still got it! Excited to see the rebuild!

I'm glad to see the miata ripping again! I'm excited to see the rebuild!

So nice seeing the Miata back 🙏 gives me motivation to work on mine!

Glad to see josue back !

Had to watch the part with you drifting again after a few days. Man i miss you 2 drifting the miatas in sync. It was beautiful and elegant and damn rowdy.

so excited to see more miata content! I forget how much of an absolute monster this thing is until I hear it start up. excited to see what you have in store!

Pedal shots were cool. Thanks for your videos!

It’s good to see the Miata again. It’s been months since I’ve driven mine and I miss it so much. Can’t wait to see the rebuild. It’s gonna be a good off season

Great content brother! Also very family friendly and you always have a good attitude about things. Keep it up

Most underrated tech on KZread right now!!!!!! I don’t need a like from you for this one Taylor ❤

Found this channel in the middle of the Fummins build....what a journey this has been for you to see how far youve progressed and where you've taken this channel!

Love the miata content man,literally the first ever video of yours I saw was the day you bought the miata when lz was looking for one😅.my little brother even built a 5.3 swapped miata while you and Ben were building his car.keep up the great work taylor,you rock dude!!!

The miata brought me to your channel. Glad to see it back out and shining again.

Ughhh Hearing that cam chop sent shivers down my spine then for you to just hop in it like nothing ever happened and catch doors is something else entirely. NOT TO MENTION BENS OLD CAR!!! Those vids of those Miata's catching doors every single lap where my favorite to date!

Amazing to think that this miata is still not at its end, always a step foward in every way !! So crazy ahah

Let’s goooo! Super stoked to see you and SRC collab

Love that your back in the miata!! Keep up the good vids

Its good to see your friend Jose back .

Man I love seeing the miata back up and running

Dude this thing is awesome. I just love the whole concept lol. Keep up the great content. Much love to you from Maryland❤❤❤.

This was a bit of a nostalgia episode, and I love it! The Miata back! Josue back, and helping get ready for an event! Racing "Ben's" Miata! I can't wait to see what that thing becomes after you put her on a diet, and give her all the RPMs!

Great to see the Miata back out. I think it’s still my favourite car on KZread.

About time the unicorn gets brought back out !!

So glad to see the Miata back on the channel and the plans for it 💪🏻

Cant wait to see a full rebuild on this thing. As you guys said it has most definitely earned it, such a unit👌👌👌🤘🤘🤘

Always the best feeling seeing a T Ray upload. Only content I really get excited for.

So cool to see the SRC crew and friends from your perspective. Can’t wait to see you in the no prep world!

Im not sure how long iv been following your channel but i know it was before this car had a v8 in it. Cant believe its been that long. Great work. Enough jibber jabber im going back to the video

Damn that was the most refreshing thing I've experienced this year. Miss the Miata content more so than I thought.

Hey Taylor, glad to see you're getting back into drifting with the. Miata. Hopefully you'll get all the upgrades done to her so she'll run better. Cheera

Awesome video. Can't wait to see more videos with the Miata.

Yes been waiting for more Miata ripping 👍

I saw your battery terminal cover had to buy some lmao! Dont need anything arcing or shortin out, thanks Taylor!

I really miss you driving this car. The Vette is amazing, and I enjoyed watching you and Josuea build it, but I feel like your channel was at its best when the Miata was out there slaying, especially when you and Ben were on the track together.

Can’t wait for the rebuild!

I never watch technical KZread channels, but some how Taylor really holds my attention. Even Adam’s technical videos bore me to tears

Every time I see a cool Miata build it makes me want to get one, but they look so much smaller irl.

car has come a long way, just when you thinks it was lvl capped a new update appears full of new go fast parts. cant wait to see it all over again

Crazy seeing big boost in the video haven’t seen him in forever

dude i miss the videos of you drifting the miata :( and its funny feels like i was watching the miata get painted black not that long ago lol crazy

Miss that car. Glad to see you ripping it again.

Heck ya it’s back 🙌🏿

Great timing!

Thanks for the efforts 😎🤙🦅

I freakin love this car! So happy to see it back ❤

25:48 the head nod from the other driver😂🔥🔥

never stop loving this car

Ahhhhh the food ol days tapping doors side by side in the ol miata 😂 love that car

Pretty cool watching this Ryan tuerck lives a few miles from me and he’s always drifting in his driveway

Great content thanks for sharing

Glad to hear its hot back in Fl while im in Alaska in -40 ambient temps

Currently building my electrical system and I so badly want to go lithium but the risks don’t outweigh the rewards, looking forward to seeing how this battery does for you

Imagine lining up next to this Miata on grid and genuinely being intimidated by It lol

Bro i been waiting for the next miata "build/upgrade" 🤙🏼

Didn’t realize you have to use the brakes so much wen drifting but it makes sense now that I’m thinking about it lol

The peddle footage is so sick! Need that for the vette comps fs!

It's such a nimble car. Makes sense why you've won so many comps in it!

The "LZBMX" sticker on your OG pics really took me back a few years!!

So you say you were conserving tyres then proceed to rev limiter bash it😂 love it😂

I get hype when I see ur notifications 😅

You didn't see the car get plowed into when it shutoff? It destroyed the rear quarter panel which has never been even dented. At this point i should just change the title. I can't stand being accused of clickbait when I don't even put caps words in my titles. no words in my thumbnails. No me making a crazy face. We fixed up the car, drove it. got plowed into when it shutoff. fixed it. kept going. Theres only so many words that fit in a title. So trying to explain what happened in less than say 50-60 characters is challenging. I would have loved to put "car shutoff and we got crashed into and destroyed the quarter panel" but that's longer than the whole title.

In hindsight I should have showed the damage to both cars and talked about it. I just don't make a big deal about wrecking unless the car is ruined. in fact it got wrecked by rualdo the last time it drove, and i didn't even mention it I just thought it was funny the car never got wrecked, sat for a year, got wrecked, sat for a year again and first event back out it gets smashed. I didn't think about it at the time because we were busy trying to fix the car. The other miatas whole front end got torn off. I'm lucky it just caved in the back of my quarter panel. The bash bar took a lot of it.

MORE FOOT CAM ACTION!! I’ve learned so much about car control from watching those beautiful feet 🤪🙏🏼

I sometimes think about why I live where the air hurts my face in the winter, but then there's people who live where the air is difficult to breathe and I don't know which one of us is worse off. Hoping to visit Florida soon again to enjoy some quality time in the AC as well.

It’s tough. Idk which one is better. Ideal would be Florida in the winter north in the summer. But I’m not rich. lol I do love being able to do anything year round. But the summer is pretty brutal. Almost like winter up north where you don’t really wanna go outside unless you’re doing a hot/cold day activity.

Shoutout to cleetus for putting me on to one of my favorite KZread channels what I’ve learned and continue to learn here is crazy to think about also the dingle berry hone video was hilarious 😂
