SpeedSF Presents: The Heads Inside the Helmets with Jovan Fiel
Jovan’s car life has been an interesting one. Back in the day, Jovan found himself on the track with a 1991 Miata doing all kinds of hooning, until one day the NA’s motor blew up no thanks to crank walk. Taking a hiatus, Jovan drove boring cars while his day job consisted of playing with Porsches.

SPEEDSF CHALLENGE - JULY 5, 2020 - ROUND 5 @ WEATHERTECH RACEWAY LAGUNA SECA
Class Miata at it again AND a broken class lap record set by a not-Miata! Fresh boi on the scene, Tony Rodriguez took that 2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder for a graceful 1:46.685 lap time straight into 1st place, while Joe Kou in his 1991 Mazda Miata took 2nd with his 1:48.737 lap time. 3rd place was cemented by Eduardo Li thanks to a 1:48.740 lap time in a 1991 Mazda Miata, .003 of a second away from 2nd! A gust of wind in the right direction could have definitely helped in this instance!
SpeedSF Presents: The Heads Inside the Helmets - Feat. Seigo Ma
Smooth driving and a concentrated effort placed Seigo with a good crowd on the podium. Seigo’s lap time for this Challenge was 1 second off the rival Gary Wong’s S2000 time and 2 seconds off Kevin Schweigert’s BRZ time, which leaves a lot of room for improvement, a concept Seigo is not afraid to shy away from.
