Antilag on an mx5 sounds just so right, yet so wrong :D
If you ever come up to Qld and need someone to service, just give me a yell.

Sounds nice makes me pine for Group B footage.

Well done for doing something new.

Which ECU did you go for ?

Good result Russell, and nice vid.

One suggestion though, lay off the baked beans before an event ...

I never met a horsepower I didn't like (thanks bwob)

I went for an Autronic SM4 Has all the features I need and I have Cal files for all the MX5's
So the rush leading up to the event ment less time on the dyno.

Awesome! But lol at the Falcon fail.
This is my MX5. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My MX5, without me, is useless. Without my MX5, I am useless.

Khanacross? Look slike a big motorkhana to me. You should come for a trip to WAC near newcastle.

Also I have an ae86 rally car and thats about the only other cheapish rwd car thats any good has enough support and is tough enough, but now all the drift boys want them they are worth a fortune.

Not much of a chance to play with the cooteflex AKA MCA shocks as Stage 1 was Hen and Chicken Lane

But the car felt more planted than it ever has
