Post Miata.. Miata.


I found this today: It was back in '97 though.

Saleens have outrageous body kits and some suspension improvements but most
of them really aren't all that much faster than the basic 'nags. They do
handle better though. I think in the twisties, you'll walk away from them,
and 10psi should take care of them straight line. (I did pass a couple of
them in an ex-CHP Mustnag LX at Thunderhill
Now, things like the S and SR351 are a different story, but you can still
take them in the twisties...more power doesn't exactly help a Mustnag's
problems.
