12.7 @ 115.6mph - Stock VVT Motor / 2560r
Afraid I am about to get roasted, this site is brutal but I love it!
Here is where my miata is at today, it's been a long journey over the last 16 months and I wish I would have done a build thread to chronicle it all, just for my own reference as much as anything else. I bought the car nearly stock in February of 2023, it only had ultra cheap coilovers and the rollbar. I ruined the original motor due to oil starvation. (Lost almost 2 quarts in about 250 miles somehow, I didn't check the oil often enough I guess). Swapped in a motor from ebay and have put about 3k miles on the setup since and it feels great. I check the oil weekly now! I've done all the work on the car, to include the tune.
Best E.T. is 12.5 on street tire, best MPH is 115.6
A brief and not complete mod list:
VVT swap with VVT not VVT'ing - stock internals
Kraken top mount manifold and 3" Exhaust
GT2560R - 16psi
Skunk2 TB - Ported VICS intake manifold
ACT Streetlite flywheel - Supermiata 4-puck clutch disk and pressure plate
FF640 injectors - DW200 Pump - E85 fuel
FF R8 Coil on plug kit
Flyin Miata coolant reroute
Ebay aluminium radiator
ms3pro
6 speed - 3.9 torsen
225/45/15 Nitto NT-01
Supermiata Techna Coilovers
Supermiata BX11 Front BBK - 2 Piece rotors

No reason to roast you on that thing. It looks really sharp and has some solid performance. You have a good bit left on the table too, 115mph trap in 1/4 would likely be very low 12,s with a set of drag radials. I see you had a dragy flashing too! Those gadgets are really cool, I use mine a lot for testing.

That's a lot of power, but hey if the car stays together and doesn't blow up, it stays together and doesn't blow up lol. You should do a virtual dyno pull to see an estimate of what the hp/tq curves look like. Just remember the more accurate the data you put in is (including the slope of the road), the more accurate virtual dyno will be.
On another note, I'm jealous. I'm at 26psi but without ethanol (96 octane last time I raced, but 100 octane now) and you're trapping similar times and speed as I am. I'm going to pull the excuse that Bristol Motor Speedway is slightly uphill, while the track you're at looks to be slightly downhill. Simultaneously, you're almost definitely shifting faster than I was and your 60' time is slightly better on average. Very cool stuff

As to my racetrack, it's las vegas motor speedway, so it's hot... real hot, and very uphill. I attached a dragy result to show the slope and 5500ft da.

Appreciate the kind words. I'm very happy with how the car is running right now and don't plan on too many power mods for a while now.
