Well seeing as the thread is "So, how fast have you had your Miata?" I would imagine it would have been in a Miata... or a toaster. My little carb running friend.

You guys will end up liking Calvin (scandmx5)... he talks **** and it's funny to read. He is local and I approve of his postings.

With that, magna's comments are null and void because of his constant abuse of the English language.

That's why I backed off...he DID follow forum etiquette, he fought back without going nutso or overboard, and I figured he might be part of that Hotlanta clique.

Newbs like this are welcome.

142.750 and still climbing when I went through the timing gates. Minor aero, yet the car was stable and geared for 170.

Fastest recorded event, 155 in a Porsche turbo according to the Illinios State Trooper...

Not sure what the speed was but I was at a MS indicated 7600rpm (oem tach was pegged but it reads like a pos) in 5th with 205/50/15's, no aero, top down.


Felt terrible, def not a comfortable cruising speed.
