[Miata] How 'bout this one

[Larry Alster]

Give standard size tires you should top out with 4.3 gears and a 5 speed at 137.1 MPH.  That is of course given the fact that you have enough HP to do it.  A stock car won't make it.  His turbo should but that wing might counteract his HP with it's added drag.   :)

  Nope, it is around 135MPH if I remember correctly w/ the 4.3 rear.

  It's actually not a half-bad looking engine bay.

  Umm, I don't have the numbers in front of me. But I don't think a Miata with a stock 7300 rpm redline will hit 160 mph with a 4.3 rear. Perhaps the wrong recipe was used when selecting the wing.

  Now I've heard it referred to as "Home Schooled".
