TPC MX-5 Cup, Autopolis short, 5th November

Just finished buying and building this spec car...
Had to do a little grinding,but very affordable build and great fun to throw around Goodwood(hadn't got the suspension,crank,engine balance,LSD or clutch/flywheel installed for that...)

Onto livery and quick grind for wheels now!
 
Thanks for hosting, and for having a livery I could ramp to the rules pretty quick @RacingGrandpa

Had fun in both races but in different ways. Race 1 trying my damndest to catch up to @O604 after running off and dropping to last on lap 1.
Then race 2 with the battle all race long with @DelboyD That was fantastic. And thanks for setting the picks @Chevy Heavy and @O604

Always a good time when I can get back on track with you guys.

And awesome dominance @The359
 
Very fun race, that car (and track) was a challenge throughout. It's a very different animal from the other Spec Miata, I just wish we had more of a chance for closer racing with it like the other Miata, but it clearly is a car that requires a lot of finesse on every corner.

It was a challenge. My first run with Barber's tune was a bit of a wake up as I was expecting the car to be planted with a "jump in and race" feel to it. I realised that I'd need to practice to do well and edit the tune.

I found it difficult enough to make being consistant tricky, but I could tell when I was just on the limit and I knew this was quicker.

It could be soft tyres would be enough grip to close the field up a little.

Having said all that, I'd be up for another race in this car as it is.
 
I tried to add you on PSN yesterday. I think I sent to wrong person the FR.
Sorry about the sudden change of host.
No worries,the missus turned up so couldn't spectate/race of a spot was available unfortunately.

Sounds like a good time was had by all.
Very fun spec car to drive, looking forward to hopefully participating in any other races in the future.

Will check out the replay later!
