Completed about 100 laps at Suzuka East yesterday; about 70 laps on tuning the '07 Superlight.

I am pretty happy with it for now and it has been posted to the CG for those wanting to have a go.  The build has no wings (only way for me to keep up with reduced PI) so the cornering could get hairy.

Lap time is 58.4xx using 385PI but that's really pushing it.  In a race 59.000 will be my target.

l my posted MX-5's have been updated and such a difference that I can't say which one I'll commit to...
...just yet.
The 94' and 07' both have some different good points to consider.

The Superlight even shines better in multiple areas it was lacking before.

I cannot get my '10 Superlight to go any faster at Suzuka East so my tweaking will rest for now.

Time to get some practices in for West & GP tracks!

Come, Friday!

Looking forward to it, quick question?  Since last fridays race was cancelled due to the memorial weekend, are we moving on to the June races now. So Mazdas this friday and not, the pre 69 coupes.

We move on!  We are in June therefore we start June race = Miata MX-5's.

Maybe after the Miata races if there are enough people then we can do the Pre-'69 2 seaters . . .

Glad you can tentativley make it Seeker, and besides thats what the pain pills are for. They might not help your driving much  ;D  but they will let you drive lol....

 Close call car wise I have it narrowed down to 2 cars. The Superlite and the Mazda gen3 only car I could even get close to my superlite time in. Steering towards the gen3 at this time. Will put in some more testing later and have my choice by tomorrow.

I only have the '10 Superlight.  I will send when my son gets off 360 & Minecraft!  That will be in about 15~20 minutes before the meet!

Glad to make it back to the Friday Forza races last night. That Mazda is awfully fun to drive and Suzuka being one of my favorite tracks made it a good night to come back. The first race it wasn't a matter of "if" you'd get in an accident but when. Fortunately after that everyone's medication smoothed out and the races were pretty incident free.  ;) Good fun guys!

Good races guys and certainly good to have Seeker back.

I feel all left out being the only one not on medication.  Next Friday, I'll take vitamins or something . . .
