So what sort of power does this MX5 have?
Silver SE (now definitely a Keeper). 2 previous MX5s, various turbo VWs/Audis, a few exotics. The SE (BARMY) is best by far!

That's got a lot of power behind it... but the lines aren't 100% clean from the '5, not to mention twitchy. Might be to do with all the power though. Does anyone know who it is?

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Somebody put us out of our misery. What sort of power does this thing put out ...the way it twitches I would imagine use.

What mods were done to this car for the track.

Awesome.

That MX5 has to be boosted. It certainly looks like a handfull to drive at the limit, with plenty of oversteer.

It's pretty quick but the GT3 is definitely faster and is being held up most of the time.

It is 160kw at 16 psi. I was on do3 dun lops on that day testing new brakes. I was probably pushing it a bit beyond it's happy place in those laps to feel brakes out at extreme. Those laps are 106's accordingly. It will do a lot better on slicks this weekend I expect. Hopefully with a tow from Matilda it will dip into a late 104 or a very low 105.

Cheers
