I have managed to overcome the problem of an Mx5 being to low to use as a rally car

Check the pics!

Did you have to do much work to get the suspension to work in the new angles/planes?

No not realy, I just use some off-set bushes in the lower arms at the front to get good negative camber.

Awesome! First time I've seen an MX5 used as a rally car.

Where do you compete?

The shockers are Bilstein, springs are King and the set up is my design with a little help from true steer fabrication for the fabrication works.

Ps. I compete in Victoria in the Victorian Club Rally Series and will soon try the Victorian Rally Championship.

Hi, i saw your car on the trailer at nagambie. Looked like you had fun going by the amount of mud on it. How did you go??

16th outright, 5th in under 2 litre class (C) with a sick navigator, had a ball was heaps of fun.

Yep, it was heaps of fun, well done picking your way up the field
