Miata for ITA

[Andy Bettencourt]

The answer is YES. The Miata has prven to be an excellent choice when you build teh power and develop the suspension.

Its THE car to have for the class. On some tracks (Roebling, Lime rock) its absolutely a class killer, beating ITS in the right driver's hands. No other car in ITA can say its a "you bring one out you win" like that. On other tracks (VIR, Road Atlanta, Daytona) it's not as dominant in a sprint race, but still the right driver in that car is close to unbeatable. It would dominate ITA in an enduro as its by far the easiest competitive car on all consumables.

who loves his Integra, but if he had to do it all over again would have a 1.8

Maybe if you had the right final drive, a better rear bar and a good header...

Seriously, the CRX, Integra and 240SX can win anywhere as well. The common thread for all of these cars is excellent handling. If you don't have that, you need the HORSIES like the NX2000, Saturn and SE-R - which also can win when you put the right effort in.

Hehe, all 3 on the list for the May VIR race. You're bringing your beast out to that event, right? right?

I don't think anything FWD is gonna beat an equal prep/drive/setup Miata at Lime Rock or Roebling

Really???? OK, so, really, want me to call my buddy Scott at king and have him talk Joey (moser) into a Lime Rock race? Bring the ARRC prep package?

Who are you putting the money on, Joey or a Miata?

[trhoppe]

Joey vs Andy at Lime Rock? Andy all day long.

[tnord]

what happens if tom gets in a miata? jordan+bulls, wooden+ucla, lombardi+packers, ppppsshhhh.....a more dominant package the world has never seen.

i'm half tempted to sell him mine just to watch what happens.

Andy is going to love you! If you're saying that because of Andy's skillz!? So, you are, right?
