: Miata goes 11.8@ 124.7mph!!

I was running the Minimonster (purple 10 sec 400hp miata) at the track. I was nervous as hell because the last run I snapped an axle. A snapped axle and welded diff are not a good combo.. During the burnout I heard a snap (turns out to be bushing noise). I thought it was the axle. We line up stage and go off a sportsman tree. I had been running a pro tree all night and redlighted like hell (.24 light or something crazy. It was because I was nervous about racing the minimonster and that I thought I had a snapped axle. We go and I bogg the hell out of it. I run a painfully slow 2.27 60ft time. He pulled the hell out of me out of the hole( 1.7 60ft.) I start to pass him at the 8th mile (me 97mph him 91.) By the traps I have him killed (redlight helped :D) His map sensor had gone out and was not telling the TEC II how much boost he was actually seeing. But I end up hitting a 11.8 to his 11.7 but I was at 124.7 mph and he was at 119. It was VERY odd to be racing a miata down the track, much less a VERY fast one..

With that MPH I should hit 10's soon once I get the Turbo II diff and axles...

BTW I am living in San Antonio now and helping out at Ric (aka Minimonster's) shop....

I riden in a couple SC'd Miatas around here with roughly 200 to the wheels, 300 or such is outrageous. Good numbers.

That thing is slow Danny! ;) How's San Antonio? We miss you man! Jon and I were trading storys last night...lol. I can't get my damn injectors to seal up. They keep leaking from the bottom O-Ring. I'm about to get some new seals and try that out.
