    Hell yeah! It took some persuasion, but the damn thing finally did it!
    Mmmm since it seems to have more in it, why not keep pushing the limits some more, I wouldnt be surprised that with some more finetuning and good air it might dip into the 8.5s.
    I love that little car for some reason.

    Mechanically your combo is staunch but as I've followed your lead up to getting into the 8sec zone , it's mostly the electrical/electronic gremlins that have been the fly in the ointment. However very consistent 9sec runs and the much needed tech support you have received during this mission, Scotty your determination and patience shines through 😊 Well Done Mate ! ! 👍🥇🏆

      lol woah steady on baby steps let's get to the lower half of 8's before trying to chew off a 7. He would need a lot more tyre and power to crack 7's. Not impossible but every second down takes a lot more work.

    In all seriousness, I can't wait to see you squeeze a few more neddies out of the MX5 and shave a few more tenths off. Plus, I was wondering would a notch/recess in the bonnet so the turbo intake gets all fresh air be a mod you might look at???
