My New MS3 Three Wheelin'

I just bought a sunlight silver 3 last week and realized that whenever I pull into my driveway (on an angle to avoid rubbing) the rear right wheel comes off the ground. I got out of the car today to observe what I thought was happening all week ... and was surprised to see the wheel off the ground!!! S W E E E T
 
Mazda has built some really stiff chassis. My dad (accustomed to older, flexier cars) was pretty stunned how quickly the back wheel got in the air when jacking up the Miata at the front of the rocker panel!

If you ever see a Protege being autocrossed, you'll likely see some more sweet tripod action going on!

I used to see the VW rabbits do it autocrossing all the time and thought it was cool as hell.

Im in neptune builhatch
 
i got a stiffy too! car that is :D

i did it on accident one day with how entrances to businesses have that little ramp into the parking lot. i totally 3 wheeled and felt myself teetering as i pulled in...i was impressed. good thing it wasnt RWD with an open diff, ive had friends get their 240's stuck in midair because the one wheel would spin and no LSD = no go haha. to get my nissan to do that it needed sway bars and super mega drift coilovers lol.

but i have to say i'm itching to go autocross this thing stock, i can tell it would be impressive --- if i can remember how to drive half decent, it's been a while.



ps - yay for the fastest color :)

It's hard to see but the rear wheel is a few inches of off the ground! (eekdance)
