So I took the Miata out to the Streets of Willow with the Porsche Owners Club on 1 23/24 2010 running CCW and it was a great weekend! It was POC STS #1. I whooped on some rookie drivers in 911s and Boxsters, but I also saw Marty, the chief driving instructor run a 1:19 without breaking a sweat.. Damn he must hold some track records for sure.
BTW anyone know of a way to compress/encode video for free on a 64bit box? Xvid doesn't support 64 bit/windows 7, and I don't wanna pay for Divx...
Ah, the Subie was on the R-compound! No wonder he posted 1:29!
Your 1:34 is quite respectable :)

@sashazxtt Yeah, he had a lot left in that car though. I:25 easy.
I need to learn to brake later and get flat on gas earlier (don't we all haha?) Stock engine street tire Miata can do 1:33 no prob. You going to toro for the next one?

LOL! Yeah, there is a lot left to learn :) 1:33 stock in a stock Miata? Wow, that's good. That means that my time is really bad... Of course, I had a sizable passenger :)
Prolly won't go to el toro... There is an x-cross in Santa Barbara in March, so I will do that.

@sashazxtt For sure. Lots. Miata is too easy to drive though, no power to get you in trouble. I brake and then I'm flat through pretty much every corner whereas you have all that power to negotiate with. Imagine the porsche guys with that powerful rear engine too.. Respect
