I've hauled a Miata w/ a UHaul trailer (trailer+car near 5000lbs) using a '96 2dr Tahoe without any problems. More than adequate and difficult to keep under 70... :) -Brian -Brian porterb@mediaone.ne

As being an newbie to autox myself, I'd recommend you stick with street tires for a while. I found street tires speed up the learning curve and are much more forgiving when mistakes are made. (so you

Sorry for the confusion.. I meant more forgiving in a wear/damage sense. Assuming errors WILL be made and these errors will wreck a racing tire, newbie autox'rs will learn car control easier for les

My '95R's alignment is much different with the presence of my 215lbs in the drivers-seat. (can't recall exact variance but it was substantial). Prior to this practice, I had the dreaded 65mph shimmy

S2000? I've actually heard the opposite about the '99 Sport.. (i.e. it's great). I know the Miata Sport is softer than the 94-97 R-pkg it replaced. I don't think the '99s had enough development time

I'd say it'd depend on the ABS system and it's performance. For a very bad example, my Chev. Tahoe does a very poor job braking on any surface (it's a tug). Once ABS decides to get involved, it's 10x

Both the Mercury Capri(91-95) and Miata(90-93) shared Mazda's 1.6l "B" motor, little else. I'd agree the Crapi was really ugly, I think FWD had more to do with it's failure.. (or rwd contributed to t
