That R8 looks SICK though. That lip looks bad ass on there.

I'd like to paint a track Miata up like a shark, that way when you come up on those ballin ass cars, they will see a shark coming up behind them *cue the Jaws music*

Do it like a shark mouth from military aircraft.

By lunch everyone was spending more time around my Miata. The R8 was my bitch. If I were him I'd commit sepuku or sell the R8 and buy a Prius. I was running quicker than any car but a full race 350hp 944 with a very experienced racer behind the wheel. I'm not so talented but that track is perfect for smaller cars that handle well. Me coming in for the kill...

I love it. This is exactly why I built my car.

Edit: thats one lucky son of a bitch

Big Stig? No way. Piss poor driver. He'd hammer it on the straights but was scared to corner. Not good for that track. He bought that Ariel used this year and he's only done a few track days. He's still afraid of the car. When I say he's at least 400lbs that is not an exageration. I'm not exactly slim and trim but that guy was a huge tub of goo.

He was out having fun though and trying to learn and improve. I don't fault him for that.

Must....race.....ORP.....


That guy apparently catches his Danishes with his mouth. At least it's cleaner.

Working on finding some better video of the v8 atom and the R8. Hopefully someone running that day posts something up better.

Curly, you gotta get some R-comps. Would have really pissed off the R8, heavily modded evo, stock STI, M3's, two 996's, full race s2000 and that yellow Atom having TWO Miatas owning them all day. Actually the two guys driving 996's were cool about it as well as a very good driver in a Works Mini. The Porsche guys are thinking a turbo Miata like ours might be a good way to hit the track with less financial risk.

Awesome job at any rate Cueball, way to spread the turboed miata 'gospel'.

Yea brothers, foresake your overpriced Devil rides, and come join the righteous path of the high horsepower Miata.
