MATG

We are pleased to announce that Moss Motors has created a limited run of laser-etched shift knobs commemorating this year’s Miatas at the Gap event. They will be available for sale only at their tent at this year’s event. Get one while supplies last!

Bonus: here’s a small behind-the-scenes video of the knobs being etched!

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!

Continuing to highlight the sponsors of our raffle that benefits the Graham County Rescue Squad is important to us. Our friends at Treasure Coast stepped up and donated again this year. Items are TBD at this moment but they haven’t disappointed in the past!

Hit up the registration tent and buy those tickets!!!

As we continue to grow our event and bring you new people to talk to we are happy to have new vendors for our attendees.

Nine Lives Racing – A wing manufacturer dedicated to making proven, high-quality airfoils at a reasonable price. Products are available to a multitude of chassis including NA/NB/NC and growing… #BigWangGang is happy to be at MATG this year!

MX5 Digital will be joining us again this year! Come check out their completely digital dash for NA Miatas. They also offer a new dash kit that includes a GPS sending unit for more accurate speed display. James Michael Mack, Travis Divine, and the rest of the MX5 Digital crew will be there to answer any questions you might have!

With a mere 2 weeks (and a day) before the Sunset Run officially kicks off , we at the always Unofficial MATG we want to extend our gratitude to Moss Motors for their donations to the raffle and for the goodie bags! They’ve always donated to our raffle for all generations of Miatae but this year , they’re going to have a vendor tent with what I’ve heard is some special event-only items for sale!!! Check them out to see what they have to offer!

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!

Only 21 days remain until Miatas at the Gap 2018. With us again this year is Fab9 Tuning. Last year Bryan and his gang brought several cars: 1 turbo NC and 1 supercharged ND, along with some of their products. Stop by their booth to see what they bring by this year!!!

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:

• Folding or Camp Chair
• Sunscreen
• Towel
• Umbrella
• Jacket (It can get chilly at night, especially if you’re on top of the mountains)
• Comfy Shoes
• FRS/GMRS radio (most people use Channel 5 to communicate)
• Maps/GPS units (Cell phones won’t work, you’ll need a dedicated GPS if you want mapping)
• Beer or Wine (for the Saturday Night Beer Swap and Wine Tasting)
• Cash (Fontana Village has one ATM in the main lodge and one at the Pit Stop)
• Hat
• Water
• Camera
• GoPro or other video camera
• Epi Pen, Benadryl, and other medications
• Bug spray

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.
