Miatas, Motorcycles, Motorsports: The Enthusiasts Triple Threat

Our guests this week on the  @WestOfTulsa  show Vivian Topaz, Sharyn Chan and Ryan Gold. We talk about everything modifying #Mazda #Miatas to your @Instagram handle identifying who you are to spirited driving versus #racing on the track and the street. Vivian is a content creator visiting us from Ohio who's building a 420 hp Miata, Sharyn is a former motorcycle racing champion and Ryan Gold is a return guest from R&R Motorworks in Goleta. We hope you enjoy the show and please don't forget to like, follow and subscribe.
