Out. Work.
Don't worry, I won't melt! I am in Dallas most weeks, and head back to Wisconsin most weekends.Originally Posted by nomadtrash
BTW - drove an Miata MX5-MSR in the street tire class at the CenDiv in Milwaukee this year. Although the car is a bit of an anti-Z06, once I figured it out it was a hoot to drive. I finished closer to the class leader in the MX-5 than I did in the Z06 at the National Street Tire Challenge earlier this year.

Good day on a fun course.
Results A fun course with speed and options. This was a good one.
Good course, even if it did kick my ass. Congrats to vetteblues for beating me in my own car. Back to the setup drawing board...

My thoughts exactly. I thought that was a really fun course. Thanks Mike, OZMDD, for letting me drive. Very sweet car.
+1!
Thanks for the ride alongs and the help too!
If Baby Jesus beat you in the same car wouldn't that be more of a driver issue than a setup issue??
Actually, I thought it was Fat Jesus. Anyway, The Jesus has much of the same feedback that Mike already knew -- the car is not rotating well. I blame Miatamoto.If Baby Jesus beat you in the same car wouldn't that be more of a driver issue than a setup issue??

I could've told Mike this before he even bought the car. If he'd ever get around to swapping to the front spring rate I recommended months ago...Actually, I thought it was Fat Jesus.

Actual photo of the blessing!
I'm pretty sure the blessing was a little different. OZMDD should have the seats cleaned.
Well, I hade some changes before I ran it int he afternoon, and I learned that the car DOES need some kind of front bar. :)

Funny, but the poor-rotating setup is faster than all the good-rotating cars out there! :)

Hey it was hot out there... beard does not help at all, but got to give the people what the people want.
Mike, the car looked like it was rotating fine to me. Most cars will be pushy at PMS, due to the high grip, tight turns, and low speeds.

Agree on the "most cars being pushy at PMS". OZMDD and I have already consulted on this today. :)
