472 RWHP Turbo Miata, Ultimate Street Car Challenge 2004

Andrew Campbell's 472 RWHP Turbo Miata that was featured in Sport Compact Car's 2004 USCC.
The road course part was @ SOW and the car was driven by me.

As you can tell, it was quite a handful - huge, laggy turbo, stock brakes, tires that were far too small to put the power down and a stock radiator that prevented us from taking a warm-up lap (or the car would overheat...).

Still, we came 5th after the dust settled, ahead of HPA's twin turbo R32 Golf, the mighty Nissan Skyline R32GTR as well as the overall winner of the event with the supercharged V6 MR2.
Not too bad.

Give me a break people, I was just driving and someone held a camera.

Let's give the tripod comments a rest, okay?

[Tarck452]

Have you considered a tripod?

[MotiMiataR]

You do realize that you're a dick, right?

@MotiMiataR

A dick makes a terrible tripod, unless it is comically large.

@gojohnson48 Hey there, my comment was not meant for you but for those who were criticizing you. If they are worried about the camera work then they aren't gearheads. I only care about the 400 plus bhp miata not weather you got the shot right. Awesome car, awesome work..

[gojohnson48]

@sqd8r how? im a racecar driver that works on my own cars and a photographer and videographer.... im a total gearhead that makes sure my camera work is good....
