ScottyB Wrote:"proper wheels" don't make much difference when you're only putting down like 100whp.bah! Then ur doin it wrong. The only cars worth considering for road courses are RWD. While I agree, there's nothing "special" about a Miata, it does get exclusive status amongst the minority of cars that are still made with the correct drive wheels while everyone else just putts along to work, not knowing or caring which wheels put down power, because they only do that when accelerating onto the highway.
A FWD Honda on the other hand might as well be any FWD car, they're all the same. Street cars. Rental cars. A Honda might be the king of the class, but it's like.... being king of the retards.
Miata? Well it might be near the bottom barrel of the RWD club, some might poke fun, but at least you're in the right club. It's like how Porsche guys make fun of Boxsters. Fine. It's a hairdresser's car. A mid-engine, 250HP hairdresser's car.
So go get that Miata! Just.... don't ride around with another dude in the passenger seat too much. :thumbup:
