I almost did(seriously) I was going out old route 34 today and the road is slipping right outside of town. In the jeep you dont notice it, but in the miata it looks like a cliff.

Nice car.

I've got a 95 that I've had for almost 3 years now. I've put around 60k on it with no problems. I've driven it cross-country 4 times, was my winter car in Ohio, autox'd quite a bit in it, been to Deals Gap 20+ times, etc.

Miatas are honestly THE most bulletproof car ever made. You should have alot of fun with it.

I've got an S2000 so I can't say much, but Miatas make me lol...I honestly can't imagine even less power in a girlie car

You know for $1000 it will murder your car (which hasn't changed since it first came out).

Every time I hit a nerve he goes in with the Tech nonsense. Every time.

Your S2000. You know, the car that screams, "I can't get laid, so I'll make up for it with this."

I could post up pics of what I did last weekend, if you would like.

I'll spare you the details, but it's essentially the pussy I pull because I DON'T drive an S2000.

the S is also easily the superior track car to a Miata...engine, transmission, brakes, chassis rigidity...no contest...sure, you can throw a turbo on the Miata, but you can do the same with the S

Awesome.

You're cool.

Which is why Mazda is the most used company when it comes to SCCA.

YZF has always got to have the biggest e-penis and he can't even use it. HA!

S2k's are heavy and over priced for what you get. Given the choice i'd take a Miata over a S2k any day....good buy. have fun with it. Don't let YZF's insecurities get to you.

sure, they're cheap to purchase and mod....1+1=2, but the stock car isn't on any list of best track times for sport compacts, heck, the new Cobalt SS would smoke it

It isn't designed to be an all out track terror like the FD, and it isn't. I'm not sure why you feel the need to proclaim this when it's common knowledge to everyone else.

But it is great at being a lightweight, nimble, canyon carver and its a blast to drive fast in the curves.

If you put the cones close enough together, the Miata will win :P

I looked at a couple s2ks and they just were not me. I did not like how I sat in the car and the suspension was a lil to stiff for daily driving around here.

stock for stock, guess which one turns the better lap times, by far, on any track you care to mention?

class dismissed...

Mark owns an S2000, so it must be the best. Everything Mark owns is the best. Everything he does is better than what anyone else can do.

Fuck, don't you guys know this by now???

that's not the point, the point is this comment


The point is, you have a superiority complex, and you aren't superior to anyone. It's like a massive righteous little man/little penis Napoleon thing you've got going on. Your therapist must rip his or her fucking hair out dealing with you.

Meh i dont care. Miatas and s2ks share the same ideas. I fun lil car that is NA and RWD honda just went the next step I think, with this comes the extra price and the not so good for DDing in this state ride.

So today I said fuck it, I'm going boost. Inthe morning I will be making the call to Good-win-racing to see just what I need to go along with the Big MP62 super charger they sell. probably a pump and injectors. 200 something HP would seem just so right in this car.

The sound of a super charger spooling would be mighty wicked on a Miata.

I am trying to break into the 2k range on this car so that means I myself have to go on a diet as well. The only bad things is that I am adding weight with the SC and the roll bar and bigger wheels. I still think i can hit 2k and still be pretty comfortable.
