Firstly I dont see any risk because it seems that the road is quiet, and also, it doesnt seem that there is any building, house or whatever nearby

Also I agree with brembo that the drivers arent taking any risk because they arent reaching the car´s limit at all such as understeering, oversteering, an exaggerating roll and so on; the drivers seem so much in control that actually the video is quite boring, and it would have been more boring if it wasnt for the BMWs sound

That looks like a fun little miata. I wonder if that is just stock?

Here is my local road(s) I goto a lot. It almost enver has traffic on it because it is a fire road.

the mazdaspeed miata was pretty quick stock (not fast..but quick)

it had the venerable overbuilt 1.8 BP series engine with a small fast spooling turbo. it was rated at around 180 hp. only the mazdaspeed miatas came factory turbo.

they ran 14s in the quarter stock, and have all the great handling characteristics of a normal miata, just a little more power
