So Sport Compact Car just finished the write up on the new suspension on my miata. Just thought I would share the results as I am pretty pumped about them.

76.6mi/hr through the slalom (the new rear wing added 2.1mi/hr!!!)
1.09g on the skid pad

And this wasn't on optimal tires. My Avon Tech R tires had been beaten up on 3 track days before we did the tests. They had dropped off significantly on track before we tested them.

the setup is:
15x7.5" SSR Comps with 225/45/15 Avons
KW 2 way adjustable coilovers with 60Nm springs
Garage Vary front lip
APR GTC-200 rear wing

It was then on Streets of Willow. I ran a couple upper 1:30's running counter clockwise. (Terry or others - what do you run in this config in your supra?) I better driver could probably pull another 2nd or so out of that...

When I get some pics and a better write up on my website I'll let you know. The write up will be in the August SCC.

Matt I ran a 1:30 flat clockwise at a speedtrials event a few months ago have not run it counter with the bowl but counter clockwise is about a second faster.

Did you mean you ran 1.30.8 or 1.38 or 39 not sure upper 1:30's

 

[turbomx5]

My fastest time was 1:30.7

I think CCW is more than 1 sec faster. I bet with the bowl you'd run 1:28 or 1:27s

Damn! Good work, brother!

Excellent time Matt that's really pedaling fast.

Geez Matt, I thought you rolled it.

 

[turbomx5]

:lol: that would be a great headline if that was the case. I need to remember that in the unfortunate event that I do roll it...

...I should pass this on to evo drivers. They could use it pretty frequently...

 

[Steve Theodore]

Congratulations Matt...sounds incredible! Well done.

 

[Xenon Supra]

Congrats on the fantastic lap times and g's.

Matt,
it reminded me from another post here someplace today ...but I have longer than usual hair and wonder if you do boost cuts? I might try some of the hair goop my kids use on their hair on my track tires, got any advice?























sorry, I couldn't resist, I have poor self control

 

[turbomx5]

:fawk: all you current supra owners need mullet cuts and fiery birds painted on your hoods...
