Actually I looked into the possibility of offering the Ginetta kit as
the ultimate Miata bolt on accessory. One part number turns your Mazda
Miata into a real British Car.

VERY light - no doors or anything - as basic as you can get and still be a
car, but with better aerodynamics and weather protection than the raft of
Lo-cost style options out there. I like it!
I raced against a couple of Ginetta G4s and lightness counts for a lot! One
had a 1500 and one had a Cosworth 1000 and both howled!
Now if we could take this kit and add some power - a nice turbo Ecotech
engine perhaps - do you think 1300 lbs. and 260 BHP - hmm - 5 lbs. per
horsepower.
Gee, a new Corvette ZO6 with 505 BHP has....ah yes - 6.2 lb/BHP.....
Double hmmmm.....
