cars you have beaten
 

Now i know miatas are auto-x kings, but what cars have you beaten/hung with on the 1/4 mile track/street

i smoked a 6 cyl mustang off the line and for about a block... But there was a girl driving it, does that count?

i could run past a 6 cyl mustang and beat it... shoeless

my altima can beat a v6 mustang.

n/a I took my buddys daytona turbo..until he got traction that is...We'll see this summer if the turbo 1.8 can slap him around (most likely)

I'm naturally aspirated and I beat a 6 banger in the 1/8th...reaction time and jump FTW.

are they anymore? i heard the soltice is the new auto x car to get your hands on :(

with my stock 1.6L miata n/a, i beat a uh..... its not turbo'd who cares:nono:

LOLA can rip the snot out of a VESPA

Fuck the solstice, its the lotus' you have to worry about. Our local club pres (prolly fastes driver and car in the area) had some problems taken him out, swapped his FM stuff out for JIC and beat the lotus.

Well I wouldn't get carried away. Richard is quick and so was/is the car, but being the fastest in the area? No.

As for Richard beating Brent, it happened during one event. To say that swaping to the JIC setup did the trick is a little far fetched. Every dog has their day. And I don't think the Elise was on r-comps.

At the challenge cup two years ago I beat EVERY Miata in the rain when my car was still NA and on bald as hell RA-1. I think that was 12 Miatas from stockish all the way to a completely done up M62 autocross beast from Calgary that regularily sets FTD in Calgary and Edmonton. Most of the Miatas were FI'd. Does this mean I'm god's gift to Autocross and have a magical car? Nope, I had a particularily good and lucky day. Everyone else had a less good day.

Sorry for the drift, but if I have to hear this particular piece of bullshit again I'm going to scream. :)

And the Solstic is supposed to be the new C-Stock car to have. The 99 Sport had a long run. The new MX-5 is a wine and cheeser's car.

One of the fastest then..? Well he acredited the win to the suspension so I thought I would too..

Sorry if I hit a soft spot Jay.

at least it's not ugly.

:) Didn't hit a soft or sore spot :) Richard tends to state things as fact, when they are anything but.

One of the fastest? He's quick (quicker than me), but doesn't autocross enough to be THAT fast. Brent is a better driver from what I've seen.

I'll give you that the Solstice is ugly for sure. But the new MX-5 ain't a real looker as far as I'm concerned. While the solstice is the ugly step sister the MX-5 is the plain and boring cousin. Instead of Mazda doing something bold and interesting (The NA Miata) they played it safe.

Does that honestly surprise you? These are the same ppl who built an n/a rotary 4door...Plain is their plan

hey hey hey...I'm a wine and cheaser ok...with 440/350's. hehe

not to mention the "toned-down" mazdaspeed 6. Designed for the average driver in mind.

I don't think it could be said that a 4 door sports car with a Rotary engine is playing it safe. In fact the RX8 is pretty risky if you think about it. :) A better example would be the Mazdaspeed Miata, now that is half assed.

The Mazdaspeed 6 and 3 are a step in the right direction. The new Miata, not so much.

If it was there first trip down the block it would b risky, motherfucker they've been making rotaries for how long now? And turbo and twin turbo rotaries!

A four door n/a is fucking safe.
