My Turbo LS1 Miata Track Video :) Hey guys... finally took my girlie car to the track...
on my 225/45 street tires...
Car makes about 630'ish rwhp & 580rwtq in the track video...
Weighed it finally without driver 2660lb's... With me in it 2800...
Idled off the 60ft... then stabbed it. Slow shifted to avoid breaking anything...
Anyway...

seems a little slow to be pushing 660hp/580tq, especially for a 2800lb car. maybe that's me. i can see wheel spin being a big problem with that hp/tq. fbodys run 11's with nearly 1000lbs more weight and about the same power/tq.. maybe even faster.
sweet car anyways.

You've certainly got the MPH, I can imagine it's a bear to handle with that kind of power on street tires, just keeping it straight and off the wall is an accomplishment enough!

It doesn't spin from a 40 punch on the street.
It's weird...
Thanks for the compliments.
Its definitely a fun car...
It's not crazy on the street. It points straight at all times even when it's spinning.
The car is stupid easy to control.

Cool build 
Got a chance to see it make a few runs and it seemed like a fun ride.
I kept running into you guys everywhere while at TX2K12 (was in that Gray Civic Si)

He already ran 138... being able to get in the throttle sooner with better tires and powershifting it to keep the boost up on the shifts would easily get it to 145... You figure out what kind of ET that would result in with good tires. 145mph on just 630rwhp is booking.
Cool build.

We want to turn it up but the clutch started slipping. I have another 100rwhp to go...
