ITA Miatas have won the overall there several times. I was lucky to beat him once back in April and thought I had him on Sunday in July, but he made a great pass on me in 1.

I don't think an S car has officially been in the 19s at Roebling. Track record is 20.5 (Irish Mike) and I think Charbonneau and Williams have been in the 20s. Best I've done is a high 21.
Not saying that John doesn't drive the heck out of the car. That car has had some rough times. (it was rolled at the double school last year). It has a good motor, MVS puts out a good product. My point is that Mike in the BMW on a miata track was toe to toe with the best in ITS miata. Both with great drivers.
