Re: My newest car
Very very cool news Tom. I hear ya about the 6-8min total run time burnout. Time attacks should be so much more fun.

Re: My newest car
Thanks,last pair of events this weekend for the season.
The new tercel coupe ice racer is getting closer to being done,it gets shoved out of the shop when done and My E30 goes in and I'll finally install the supercharger I have for the M52 in it,add A/C and power steering bits back in as well and then the Miata can come back to the shop(its a one car deal)and I can build the cage.I might be pulling the supercharged engine and replacing it with a 2.4 cobalt engine,all aluminum and makes about the same power as the current engine without the weight/complexity and heat generation of the sc engine,I'm hoping the shop that's making the "kit" to install the engine with the Miata transmission offers at least a partial sponsorship to promote the shop.
We'll see how the winter plays out,can't call it the off season as I don't really have one.
