Annual Miatas At The Gap event
It’s hard to believe that there’s less than a week until MATG 2019!
With only 6 days (SIX DAYS?!?) until we meet up again for a weekend of fun in the Dragon’s curves we want to shine a bit of light on a long term vendor.
V8 Roadsters and their LS and LFX swapped Miatas are fast and efficient, and their parts are always of the utmost quality. Check out all of their components and full swaps for every Miata on the road.
With only 7 days remaining until the start of MATG XXIII, we’d like to let you know that the crew from uRace Simway will be returning for a second year at MATG. Last year they were very popular and even held a competition for the fastest lap in a Miata! Who knows what this year will bring? Make sure to stop by and try your hand at some amazing sim driving beside the General Store!
With only 10 days left we are very happy to announce a returning vendor for 2019, Öhlins suspension! Highlighting their DFV equipped coilovers for all generations they will be on site to answer all of your suspension questions. Look for Casey and the crew in the vendor’s area on Friday and Saturday!
Only 16 days until Miatas at the Gap XXIII! Make sure to stop by KMiata’s new tent and trailer setup and check out their engine swap kits and other Miata upgrades. They offer BMW 5 or 6 speed ZF transmission swaps, drivetrain modifications, and some really wild exhaust solutions. David and the crew will have multiple cars of all generations to look at and drool over!
22 days until Miatas at the Gap 2019!?!?Our friends at Exomotive will be back again this year and are bringing several examples of their exo-cars for you to see.
The Exocet kit puts Miatas on a serious diet bringing them down to only 1500 lbs. This improves handling, braking, and acceleration. So, make sure you come and talk to Kevin, Trevor, and the crew at Exomotive while you’re in the vendor’s area!
One of the most common questions about the event is what to bring along for your weekend of enjoyment on the wonderful roads and at the events we have going on. While we are all a bit different (we do drive Miatas…) a pretty simple list to start with is:
Finally, don’t forget to stop by the registration tent. Registration is free and gets you a swag bag and annual dash plaque. You can also purchase your official event t-shirt there as well.
Today leaves us with only 24 days remaining until Dragon Hunting Season. What kind of last minute prep are you working on? Any new modifications, upgrades, or engine rebuilds? Maybe just a good deep cleaning and wax? Let us know what’s on your list before you head out!
Today leaves us with only 30 days until MATG XXIII!!!

Russ David Beckner was kind enough to share with us, a video he created in 1999 at MATG III. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did. There are a few familiar faces (and one familiar car)!

With only 65 days until MATG XXIII comes together, we’d like to remind you of a pretty big update to our lunch offering.
Instead of serving a lunch with a date/time/expiration (and huge lines) we are going to be offering a gift card good for food, drinks and whatnot around the village! These will be handed out with registration at our tent similar to the infamous dash plaques: first come, first served.
