One of my favorite trash shots from El Toro ... Max had just cut one. It was enough to distort the time/space continuum.

Ha! Beat me to it. Although I probably would have resized the class letters a bit and interpolated the resulting additional, uh, info :computer:

....I have a good imagination :o

280-300whp. the car would have to weigh 2240 so you'd have to add 200 or so lbs in the trunk giving you a near perfect RWD weight distribution of 45/55 f/r. Slap a good sized wing on the back for good measure.....

:heyes:
Then my target of 400RWHP and a 2445 lb car is right on target for SM2.

I can point out a thread on rr-ax which shows that this "limitation" is a good thing...

The Miata solution for SM2 is Bill's car with the 2.3 duratec as used in the new Formula Atlantics.
300 hp na.
Of course the power band is probably 8000 rpm to 11000 rpm so you'd want a sequential gearbox...
OHH good point. that caterham CSR was CRAZY fast. only problem is you could probably build the whole car for the cost of that engine.
Staggering back to Bill's imaginary SM2 car. I think he should buy one of these in a crate from Mazdaspeed:
