    Default Fastest Lap In Miata At ECR?

    Anyone know who holds the track record for a Miata at ECR? What was the lap time? Is there video? I'm looking for a good video of a Miata doing a sub 2:10 on this track to make a Corvette owner shut up, lol.

    P.S. The research I've done seems to indicate that a Spec Miata might do somewhere in the neighborhood of 2:05 or 2:07. Can anyone confirm?

    Go to 11:37 of this video to see a low 2:09 done by a mostly stock Miata.

    Go to this video to see a low 2:08 done by a Cosworth Supercharged Miata.

    Go to this video to see a mid 2:02 done by a turbo Miata.

    I don't know what the record is.

    Hell, our Lemons Miata will get close to a 2:10...

    I can give you a clip of me doing a 2:07.9 at the toy run in the black NC.

    Corvette ran a 1:51.7.
    M3 is always the answer.

    Keith Verges held the spec miata record at that track with a 2:07.xx. Not sure if it still stands.

    As far as I know, Matt Andrews has the miata record with a 1:59.3 from 2010.

    He hacked the list to put his name in.

    Hmmm... I don't doubt his ability, but I am skeptical that he kept a car long enough to get it on the list seven times in one year.

    Wow, I need to run TTE! I'd have to run smaller tires than my autox 255's and the stock airbox, but I think I could stay under the bump to TTD. I'm running 3 sec faster than the TTE record for ECR. tempting....

    Anyone know where an STR NC would fall in the SCCA TT/club racing classing, roughly?

    Doesn't work that way. They use a completely different points type system.

    I ran a 59 and change in March at the Vette day at 260whp on new NT-01s. I'll never run that again since I have a poverty car now. I picked-up 3-seconds with no-limit baller braking.

    Looking at the NASA record book makes me pissed, I could turn some competitive times in C or D. If I go junkyard motor, look out TTD.

    Hence the "roughly". :)

    I couldn't easily locate the points and base class system for SCCA. NASA was easy to find and calculate.

    They might just class you as a vintage Trans-Am if you put the superchicken back on.
