    Default Country's fastest autocross Miata now for sale

    Bob Palmblad (2nd this year in SM2 at Nationals) is selling his supercharged '99 Miata. Heckuva car for the price ($16k). Here you go POS - you wanted a competitive new Miata, and you've been talking about superchargers, here's the whole package rolled up in a price that probably wouldn't even cover the cost of parts if you had to do it yourself!

    I think that would look good in POS Racing garage.
    I think he could even beat that pesky MR2. Just think how much fun it would be if you where "top dog" at the S2K events. Heck I would even pay your first entry fee to watch.

    I tell you what... if I had $16k laying around I'd be booking a flight to Florida as we speak.

    Tempting, very tempting. But it doesn't sound like it would be useable as a street car (500 front, 300 rear springs). And I think Bob [Palmblad] needs to ask Dan [Pedroza] to delete his post about "... the money pit portion". I know it doesn't necessarily refer to that car specifically, but it will leave potential buyers wondering. I don't know about you, but I don't need a[nother] money pit...

    Still, it's a nice looking (I like... prefer?... white), well sorted car that might be able to give a certain red supercharged '99 a little competition at MSR. $16k seems like a good price, and it even comes with a TireTail!

    HAHAHAHAHA

    I would film it and set up some kind of adult pay-per-view site to raise cash and buy the car myself...

    I've ridden in that car and all I can say is that it's amazing. It's a Z06 killer and can run in the 12's at the strip.

    As far as a street car, Bob drove that car on the street supercharged for over 30k miles or something. I don't know how anyone can use a car with an aluminum Kirkey racing seat as a daily driver.
