if this things got an engine like you say go grip racing in it as it looks as though it been designed that way? if you drift it (properlydriftit) youll damage it.for sure.
this what your aiming to achieve?

What you mean by that? Anyone who knows me knows my cars get driven, and are generally to be honest far from mint bodywise. I'm not a man for cleaning or polishing lol!

Such is life. No different to damaging any other car. I will be taking it out in Mondello on a normal trackday and see how it does. But without R888s or A048s, and with steel wheels, a welded diff, and 195 not great tyres it wont come close to its full potential in that sense lol. But I still should be able to somewhat gauge what it could do.

That has diamond racing wheels in 15x10. Considering the weight of the wheels and how uncomfortable that now is to drive that is the last thing I want. I'm going for a compromise of beefing up the looks of the eunos without sacrificing too much of the handling. The Bassetts weigh about 18lbs a wheel, and the enkeis weigh about 14.5lbs a wheel AFAIK.

Thats the autokonexion fastback hardtop
To be honest at this stage over the last year I've gone through nearly 1,000 pages of mx5/miata/eunos roadster picture threads so have probably seen most lol. When it comes to planning out cars I dont skimp on the research!:D
cool...cant wait to see it wen you've few bits done to it dude mx5's are cool cars
good luck wit it an buildin it
Good luck with the car, hope to have mine charged in some way or another before the summers out!!
Thanks man. In fact I'm sorry if the basics of my car appear to be in many ways copying your own! BRG with black steelies lol, although I suppose you have gone white now. Just the way it worked out as never planned on keeping the BRG but its really grown on me, and as said it would nearly be a shame to ruin the good original paint at this stage. But we'll see in the future! :DQuote:

The 20v was in Mondello maybe 4 or 5 times, untill I ran out of money. The FC didnt see the track (couldnt afford that kind of petrol costs lol), but the condition of its front bumper and the black electrical tape that held it together vouch for it not being too clean to wreck, although they were done before I got it. The other cars I've had dont really matter in that sense.Quote:
