that DBR1 replica is sweet! Those little ones would be insane though too!

You can pick up a cheap, run down miata for under $2k nowadays. Sell the hood, trunk, bumpers, doors, and all the interior parts you dont need, and you could probably get around $1k for it. So you could conceivably get everything you need to build one of those open air ones for under $7500.

Add an intake, cams, exhaust, tune, and maybe some port/polish work done and you could get 150whp in a 2000lb, RWD car.. They dont look all that horrendous either IMO

Or if you're insane, you could piece together a turbo and easily hit 250whp, which would be insane.

^and turbo builds for one of those bastards are SOOO cheap.

Turbo miata motors are queer. Drop an SR20 and have reliable power that doesn't sound like this:

Start at :27 seconds, evidently I can't embed at a specific time anymore? Lamee

[Rowleym]

^ that was hilarious.

Also, E28 took a spill today, I hit a tree. Tree is no longer there. BMW is fine.

The participation is lackluster People either dont have their cars out or don't wanna take pics outside in this weather. But I have no ideas for another contest either.
