Quick update...just took the car on a 2hr run around the lake, and it felt really good. I wish I hadn't taken 10+months to finish the suspension so I could have a more direct comparison to the last time I drove that road.
However, the car felt very neutral, only on the tightest corners did the car push at all, and I was able to bring the rear out with the throttle. There were some pretty bumpy sections and the car did great over that even under full throttle (koni's set full soft). Overall the car felt great, and I was able to hang with my friends turbo miata (dynoed 230 rwhp) pretty well, he would pull away coming out of the corners, but I was right back on his ass in the corners ... Jake, that engine just keeps on pulling ... well past 6k ... I really need to hook up that rev limiter ... oh and oil cooler worked great again, still havn't gotten the temp above 190...however the real test won't be untill summer time... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) The surface was much better than at the autox, and I wasn't pushing the car nearly as hard...so its really not a fair comparison, but I thought I would let you guys know anyway. Weather is supposed to be nice again tomorrow (60* and sunny), so the car will get another beating then. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) Tony |
