Re: MONDA - the Honda Powered MX5
My plan for 2015 is to get down to NSW and do some races and meet some forum members. Hopefully I will get to see your car in action!

New PB @ the Druitt (North) Circuit 1:11.2
http://mx5cartalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=54598&hilit=+north+circuit
Surely some faster MX5's have been round just not the "official" days.
5.7 seconds a lap better than I went with my old fully Built MX5 race engine which ran on better tyres.
It Was an Impromptu TrackSchool day at the North Circuit Today.
Open Pit lane total of 3 cars turned up
- Hyundai i30 Diesel (chipped)
- SS Ute Stroker with Rollcage sounded good was dog slow
- MONDA
Was only limited by Fuel on Hand and how freaking hot it was.
Gearbox on it's last legs and tyres nothing special, still no aero 200+ into turn 1 is a moment for reflection.
and the 38 degree day might have sapped a bit of power.
It might not be cheap but HONDA power is frikkin sweet.

Great to hear you're enjoying it
If it weren't for the need for a dry sump in a rhd application the kmiata kit would be very tempting, I've got a K20A outside the back door.

Re: MONDA - the Honda Powered MX5
Dry Sump not 100% needed.
However the Custom Sump similar to the LHD kit would have cost nearly as much
as a one off to get made and taken a bit longer time wise.
There are over 20 getting built in the USA, the YouTube and Results they get won't lie.
I don't think there will ever be a faster Naturally Aspirated Mazda MX5 combination.

RIP MONDA
Monda 3.0 will live on in a Space frame with a Sequential gearbox and a small hint of Mazda MX5 dna as well.
