... and .28 is plenty, that's a good 3-4 car lengths.
And of course, you have to dis the MR2 -- what else can you do when a much cheaper, less powerful, significantly older used car is much faster than you? 
Seriously it would be anyone's race and it would be interesting to see the results. Where are you located razor?
I'm game for a challenge ... besides, it would be nice to havea video of Hyde beating a Skyline  |
New Zealand.
There are a couple of MR2's here in the low mid 12's and one that runs simular times as yourself. I don't really street race either as I prefer to take it to the track though the odd time has arisen in the past where I've endulged in less than legal speeds.
I've not purchased my car to be a race car by any stretch, but more fo what it is. The only things I've done to the car since I've owned it is a new front mount and chipped ecu. So considering that, I've spent a total of around $500 USD on my car outside the purchase and general maintinace such as clutch, brake rotors, pads, oil changes, hoses, coil packs, etc.
However in saying that over the next year or two I wil be giving the motor a good massage as honestly it is beginning to bore me. There are plenty of GTR's here that are in the 11's some in the 10's, and two in the mid 8's not to mention a host of them over the 600hp mark. So in the bigger scheme of things mine is very standard but damn reliable
It's also driven daily as it is the only car I own in New Zealand.
BTW what is your best 60' time Jykle both on drag tyres and normal road tyres? I've managed a 1.66 on 235x40x17 Federal 696's on good track conditions but have yet to run on a good track since the last tune.
As far as an influx of MR2 owners they are welcome to the boards as long as they abide by the guidelines ( link in my signature ). So far it's been nothing more than jokes and smiles. However in saying that if it turns ugly or someone gets their nose out of joint and decides to take this personal it will be ended quickly. So lets not go that far shall we
