Possibly the Quickest BP Powered Miata Pass?
I've seen this car in person on the dyno and it's pretty badass. Drag racing isn't my thing but this thing moves out.
8.419 @ 159.40
Does anyone know of a quicker BP powered Miata 1/4 mile run?

Definitely more than 600.
One of my friends of 25+ years who races a drag Baretta that probably has roughly equivalent weight of the miata in video, if his Baretta is heavier, probably not by a lot. My friends Barretta has a Scott Shafiroff small block that dynoed over 800 at the crank (cant remember exactly) runs best of 5.60s in the 1/8th, so has to be at least that plus some.

That thing must be ******* scary, look at it slipping out of the hole. My car is scary and I am less than his 1/8 mile speed at the 1/4. It must give you a headache to launch that thing more than a few times.
Cool!
Cool!

That car has been around for years. The car’s previous owner lived just a few miles from my house. It was sold a few years ago, and looks like the new owner got it going again.
Edit: If it isn’t the same car, I would be surprised. OP, can you find out the car’s history?

That youtube walk around posted above is the car.
The shop doing the work is my tuner, same shop that also tuned Ryan's HyperMiata.
