I lost............
Just raced a WS6 Firebird with intake, headers, and exhaust. He pulled a car on me off the launch cause a spun, and never pulled another inch all the way to 100. I feel pretty good about it, one length isnt bad at all. I ran 13psi, poor engine.
My setup.
Stock '99 engine
turbonetics t3/t4
FM piggy back
2.5" turbo back
no cat
255/30/18's out back, oh ****.

You're right. I'm a decent driver, I've been racing for several years, but you know how it is every time your in a different car, its like a whole new game. I plan on going to the track in a couple of weeks and seeing what kind of et's I put down. I ran a 9.1 in my turbo civic with no lsd and on 185 width tires. If I cant beat that with the miata I'll be royally pissed. I think it will all be in the 60ft.

My best time with my civic was with a 2.30 60ft. Near bald tires. What really helped me is that we tuned it with chrome pro which utilizes full throttle launch control. It's cool, kinda works like a rally car's anti lag system, you pull a **** load of timing and add a bunch of fuel on the launch control and you can build like 8psi on the line at about 4000rpm's. Then just pedal it out and tease the **** out of it and you can rip first gear. I might also add that I burned up 3 300wtq clutched doing this while preloading the suspension before launch, lol.
EDIT: The afformentioned civic weighs in at 2250lbs.

Yea, I'm hoping for something between 2.2-2.0 60' times now. I got new 225-50 YOKOHAMA's ES 100's. Still need a torsen, so I likely won't hit lower than a 2.2. It's my understanding that taking a tenth of your 60' takes off MORE than a tenth off your time. Isn't that right? I believe my car would run 8's.

Well, Right now I've got about 200 at the wheels as an estimate. A lot of head work and a 100 shot nitrous. I could use a torsen, but I'm in college and don't really have much money right now. However, if the price was right, I could not eat for a while and get it. Let me know what you want for it.
About the 60' times. Here's the way I see it. It seems that taking a tenth off the 60' times takes around 2 tenths off the overall time. I know a guy with a 240 that can run a 2.2 60' all day long on street tires. I can outrun him on the steets easy, and my trap speed is always higher than his, but he runs a 9.4.
