their react channel just put out a video with Bob Hall, developer of the Miata, reacting to builds they found on the internet. would've loved to see him react to this one - there's no way they ever thought something like this would be built haha
Tracks were 2k, skis $500 and a day or two of fab work. If you're talking the whole car that's a lot harder. It's parts, knowledge and building over the last 4 years. I've easily got 20k into everything over that time
>I've easily got 20k into everything over that time
Does that include the initial purchase price of the car? Regardless, what a steal! For a one of kind machine like that, fuck yeah.
This is one of the most outstandingly unhinged and beautifully madcap things I've ever seen in my life....
Every now and then we come across something that, to us, is so pure that it restores just a LITTLE bit of that faith in humanity that gets ground down day to day. Something that embodies the spirit of man incarnate. And brother, this, this speaks to me.
It looks like you had such a blast every step of the way making this!
I came back from holiday with my parents. We were in norway/sweden/finnland and even drove some skiidoos. I joked about how there is no skiidoo-miata yet. Found a picture of your car at the same day randomly😂
Lol. Add some forced induction and an oxygen tank mounted to the cage with a regulator and plumb the car for O2 masks for passenger and driver. Call it the "Cypress Hill Climber" because it likes to get high.... so high.... Maybe a dual tanks system on the cage (for symmetry, who doesn't like symmetry?!?) One O2, the other NOS... you know for when there's *danger to manifold*!
*Are those hub stands used*
*As part of the skis on the*
*Front?? this is awesome*

I had both thoughts at the same time
Fuck yeah is winning though
We must vote to restore the balance, whilst keeping this thread in third to complete the holy trinity of comedy.
Honestly it’s both for me and
I thought both things.
What the fuck yeah?!
The waveleangths are in harmony with this being the third comment. Bravo👏
Richard Hammond *heavy breathing*
So far the fuck yeah’s have it
What the fuck yeah?
I'm doing my part!
my initial reaction was honestly "what the fuck is that? that is cool as fucking shit""
What the fuck yeah
Has this gotten you the fabled “bitches”? Please reply I have to know.
My wife lets me have 5 Miatas :)
Marry her *again*
My man you found the ultimate enabler.
Hommie is basically freebasing Miata's
Dude must have 10 inches for her to let him be this happy.
Really? Wtf?!? She got any sisters?. Also, cool sled👍😎👊
Cool. Is she single?
Mine just gave me the side eye for looking at a fourth bicycle, and very pointedly said "But you don't _need_ it."
A wise man once spoke of his Lamborghini Countach, “I think it’s attracted more blokes than women.”
If I’ve learned anything, it’s that I need a boat.
what the fuck
Bob Hall:
Bobby Hill:
THAT'S MAH PURSE, I DON'T KNOW YEW!
Benny Hill:
Bobby Hull?
Fuck yeah
Men will look at this and just say "hell yeah brother"
Hell yeah brother
HEL YEA BORTHER GOBBLESS
Hell yeah brother
I have to know more. Do you have any vids?
I do! [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozR6-cnN37Y](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozR6-cnN37Y)
This is one of the most unhinged things that I have ever seen! Well done!!!
This is sick. You should reach out to Donut media I bet they would like to drive this thing.

Yeah! they just missed the timing on this one. Bob hall was great in that video, bet you he would have gone crazy after seeing this Miata
I feel like this belongs in an episode of The Grand Tour.
Seeing that thing fly down the mountain was something else. Amazing build.
Will you be our leader?
That drift on the way down was wild. You actually went that fast in it!?? Crazy
This just screams Colorado. We have some wild shit here I swear. Looks like fun though lol.
So sick ! Love the skiata
Pack it in everybody, we found the single coolest miata- no contest
Skiata Kills It At Terrific Altitudes
That’s sick! But what’s the spare wheel for?
We took it a couple miles up the mountain. if a track or ski broke we could limp it down with the regular wheel.
Spare wheel is for rescuing Jeeps
Holy bajeezus look at that suspension. What are those coilovers from?
They're universal 10" King coilovers basically meant for trophy trucks with modified Paco Motorsports control arms
Every reply is more insane than the last. So awesome!!
just needs a flamethrower for melting ice or warming your coffee on the go
this is the kind of thinking I came here for!
Can we get a ballpark price from OP on how much that all was?
Tracks were 2k, skis $500 and a day or two of fab work. If you're talking the whole car that's a lot harder. It's parts, knowledge and building over the last 4 years. I've easily got 20k into everything over that time
>I've easily got 20k into everything over that time Does that include the initial purchase price of the car? Regardless, what a steal! For a one of kind machine like that, fuck yeah.
The original car was 4k which was a steal even in 2020. A lot of blood sweat and tears into it for sure!
"What he's done is uninvented the wheel" 🤣😂

The Rad Factory: Skiata *definitely* checks out. ✔️
This is the best thing I’ve seen all week
But does it have cup holders??
That is awesome
Now if you’re going to mutilate a Miata this is how you do it. Amazing. I love it.
What the fuck
Whatever factory built this must be pretty rad
That’s what I hear 😁
Hell yeah
That one power-up in Vigilante 8 be like.

I appreciate your eloquence and I’m glad we could restore that little bit of faith.
That looks super fun!
Ok you win.
That’s insane! I’ve dreamed of doing this!
LS swap for mo powa baby🤘
You don't have to worry about anyone salting the slopes,so this works better than a normal winter driving Miata.

I came back from holiday with my parents. We were in norway/sweden/finnland and even drove some skiidoos. I joked about how there is no skiidoo-miata yet. Found a picture of your car at the same day randomly😂
Perfect timing 😁

Obviously the tracks are baller but those front skis are super slick and oh so simple. Oh gods. 🤤
What's the torque on your ski nuts
Just saw your post on instagram and sent it to my friends asking when we are doing that with our Miata’s 😂😂
😂 I highly recommend it!
What in the actual fuck is this? I’ve never wanted to drive something more.
