Car is a 1990 Eunos Roadster hardtop - stripped out, TR Lane rear cage, Avo coilovers, Toyo 888s + one passenger. I reckon id be quicker if I softened the rear a bit, its very scatty at the moment.

pushing quite hard by the looks of it. lovely control when the back end steps out in the first 30 odd seconds.

What you dont realise is that a lot of the movement in the wheel is feedback due to the solid suspension which isnt aided by how light the steering is. Like I say it needs softening on the rear.

Hopefully the ease at which it spun last weekend has now become apparant. The rear is so stiff and i should have softened it for the second session.
Mallory looks like a circuit quite suited to the mx5

I reckon the power steering should come out, another few kgs to be saved as well
