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

As always, don't let the British accent fool you. Max is only a few degrees removed from Larry the Cable Guy.

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.

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:
