I'm sure a lot of you know the specs on the Miatas, but I just looked them
up here are some 'out of the box' specs.
Torsen Limited Slip Differential
ABS Brakes
Bilstein Shocks
140 HP 16V DOHC
mmmm, only a 40 horsepower difference ...

Ride height is not an issue anymore, and the speeds are about the same as
when Jeff and Steve ran the cars. The issues is, the 94+ Miata is to fast
for the 914. The 99 Miata makes it even harder.
