    Street Racing Sucks

    Hey Snacks McGee: Street racing is dangerous, unless you are doing what 2K3 said, namely running within the posted speed limit. I don't think going from 0-50 mph as fast as you can is dangerous if you are doing it in a 50 mph zone -- I generally call that "pulling away from a stop light."...

    Street Racing Sucks

    2K3 -- You got the right idea! If you do it right, street racing isn't dangerous... but we all know true stories about people doing it wrong and killing or hurting innocent bystanders. Most people I see street racing do NOT do it safely and unfortunately are a menace. The drag strip, auto-x...

    Suv's

    Truck based SUV's themselves are a menace to both their owners and the rest of us. High center of gravity, poor impact energy absorption, a huge amount of mass, rotten fuel economy, and poor rollover protection have all been hallmarks of the class since its inception and contribute to the high...

    Autocross shocks

    Hey miata autocrossers: I've got an E-stock miata that is in desperate need of shocks... what do y'all recommend? I use it as a daily driver, too -- I've heard Koni's were the way to go for auto-x; what do y'all think?

    what should i buy?

    I had settled on a Cooper S -- it drove like a go-kart, had no turbo lag, no torque steer, and I liked the idea of going back to smaller cars that could drive circles around bigger cars... but I'd had 3 RX-7's and a miata, so I wanted to give the MSP a chance. I didn't like the tail or the...

    GT Championship on Speedvison 8/9

    Hey HondaToMazda: Great work with the Proteges! I'm bummed your switching to the 6 (since I have an MSP!). What a great series to run in -- some of the best racing around. How'd you get involved with OPM -- I'm infinitely jealous, of course!

    RX-7's?

    Hey guys: I've heard precious little about the ?upcoming? RX-7 -- just a lot of dealer smoke blown around. All I know is I've been out of an RX-7 for way too long! What is the scoop on the new one -- if there even is a scoop...

    Rx-8

    He's probably talking about the old 13B probs... hopefully the new porting config will take care of the old probs. I was like everybody else... I had 1 N/A 13B die, and another lose compression and watched my brother go through 4 in his Turbo II...

    demented CD deck [kenwood]

    I had to have mine replaced as well -- it took a CD and wouldn't spit it back out or play it... They had to order a new one for me. No other probs, though...

    wINSHEILD HAS A CRACK

    Cracked windshields sound like the norm... I had mine maybe 2 months at the most -- my wife was standing next to the car (parked) and it cracked right before her eyes. From the top down to the center. Our dealer in Va Beach was real cool about it though -- they replaced with no fuss. If you...

    Watch Out!

    Them SRT-4's are FAST... but I'd take one on any day in the twisties! And the inside... well, the inside still looks like a neon (although I wish my MSP seats had some side bolstering!)

    MSP Drivers What are you???

    auto-x Autocrossin'... This car is too awesome among the cones. I did Evolution Stage II this year, and brought the MSP rather than my '91 miata... much faster!!! Can't wait to get it on a real road course, too...
