I lost to this blue ford
 

My friend has this 2017 focus rs making 390hp with an exhaust and a tune. Now obviously miata's should smoke that. Ford is all wheel drive and weighs 1600 kg (3527 pounds)

What does my miata need to win??

100 shots of nawwws

Spoon engine and two of the big ones.

100 red buttons?

You need to run at least 18psi of boost to beat a blue ford. Red ones are faster though, so watch out.

ITBs, big ones

Genius:bowrofl:

Mate of mine has a wrc Focus, amusingly its red.....

must send him a link to this thread:giggle:

Rich.

what the fuck is going on in here

We're setting up Ramon for race wars 2k19.

OP, don't let these others troll you.
It's all about the gear ratios. If you're drag racing, you want to start with the highest numerical gear for the fastest acceleration.
In a miata, it's actually reverse!
It's going to look and feel weird at first, but I promise you, you'll accelerate faster and smoke him off the line.​​​​​

Sir,
the "R" gear is for RACE.

DANGER TO FANNYMOLD!

A better driver, obviously.

My 100k miles, NA '94 on worn out Hoosiers would beat a Focus around Sonoma Raceway all day long.

About two schfifty five.

I so want to post the parody Miata / Ford clip of the Fast and Furious "what's the retail on for one of those" video, but I have totally failed in finding it... :(

Did you mean this one?
"More than you can afford, pal. Ferrari."

Nope - there's a fan version of that - with a miata and a ford (crown vic?) that was posted on here a while back..
