SpeedSF Presents: The Heads Inside the Helmets - Feat. Nash Ramar

MEET NASH RAMAR!

Nash began to plant tires on track asphalt back in July 2018 in a 2015 Chevrolet Camaro Z28. Somewhere along the line with the thought of being happier with a slower car that can be driven fast on the track, he obtained an ND Miata in November 2018 and never looked back.

Fun fact: Nash’s first time out on the track was at Sonoma Raceway and it’s become his favorite track, so much so that the #252 decal on the side of his cars represents the 2.52 miles of Sonoma!

MOD TIME

Armed with an MCS + Karcepts suspension package, 235/40/17 Toyo Proxes RRs for added grip, Kirkey seats to hold Nash in place, full Verus Engineering underbody panels and rear diffuser along with a wonderful stock motor, Nash was ready to take on the SpeedSF Challenge. He entered a couple of events in the S4 class throughout 2019 and managed to place 1st at one of our Laguna Seca events! Proud of you for that one, Nash!

With his best lap time at Laguna Seca being a 1:44.4, it’s exciting to see what Nash has in plan for he and his car going forward. He claims he’s already fully invested in parts as of January 2020 so maybe it’s all about enhancing the driver at this point! One day in the distant future, maybe this Miata will turn into one with a V8 grumble! ;D

TRACK LESSONS

Nash loves running with SpeedSF to enjoy great company and run with skilled drivers out on the track. For beginner drivers starting out their first track outing, Nash advises that it’s not about the horsepower of the car or achieving the lowest lap time the first time out, but rather, it’s about hitting each corner smoothly and learning to be a consistent driver!
