My Miata got crunched, and now the hood will only engage the first catch. Will that pass tech? I suspect not. So I am looking for a ride in a street-tired AS/BS/CS car for the second run group. Most

I've been generously offered a ride Sunday (thanks, Ian!). I'm going to see if it's possible to secure the hood of the Miata with wire. Either way, I'll see you all on Sunday. -- john@idsfa.net John

Izzat the "binary engine"? Hey now Jim, don't be talking about turning an R package into a CSP car. It's not quite as silly as modding an Integra Type R out of G-stock, but it's bad enough...Get your

Those are both very good questions. I'll start with the second one. The few 2001 owners who have had their cars tested on dynomometers have found no difference in power compared to 1999-2000 cars. Th

Unfortunately, that's nearly impossible. I went looking for just such a bike (good quality, no front suspension). The most expensive bike we saw with no suspension was $300. She wound up getting a to

The Type R comes standard with a Torsen limited slip differential. Only clutch-type LSDs are permitted in Street Touring. Once could conceivably remove the Torsen in order to compete in STS, but that

Check the URL I posted. Some of those filters sound to me like they're equivalent to running without a filter. Some of them may be worse. Somewhere I read (yeah, yeah, real reliable) that there are F
