These cell phone shots of a Mazda Miata, clearly ready for the 24 Hours of Lemons, were taken about half a block from my house! This is the “Team Eyesore Racing” Miata, caged out and with a homebuilt turbo kit. What’s even more interesting, is that the rig is hitched up to a brand new Dodge Ram 1500 with Michigan “M” plates, meaning it’s a press car. Is there another journalist/weekend racer living on my block and I don’t even know about it?

Oh My God! That's Dave Coleman's racing team – he runs MotoIQ.com, wrote for Sport Compact Car and I think he works for Mazda.
I think eyesore racing is Dave Coleman’s team. He used to write for Sport Compact car back when they were thick, tech rich issues. Now he contributes to motoiq.com
