If anyone is curious enough I just found out that Speedhunters did a feature on the racing club that I joined in college (I even appear in one of the pictures! Smile )

http://www.speedhunters.com/2013/01/wreck-racing-low-budget-priceless-education/

What we do is basically build racecars for $2000 or less. We built a Supercharged 1UZ-FE (4.0L V8) powered Miata NA6C that puts down about 300whp and the car weighs about 2,200 lbs! Our current project car is a 1969 MG Midget (kei car lol) but we swapped the engine for a 2JZ-GE and are now in the process of turbocharging it! Projected horsepower should be 400+ in a car that weighs about 1,900 lbs.

That Miata looks like a monster. It must have been the one you were telling me about a couple days ago.

I drove the Miata a few laps around a parking lot once Smile The car is insanely loud, no power steering, and the driver's seat is so close to the wheel that I can shift with my knee Laughing I think the car 0-60s somewhere around 5 seconds flat or less!

Wait you get to BUILD race cars? Holy crap that is awesome Smile

Reminds me about the time when I was in the go-kart club when we turbocharged our 2 cyl go kart lol. We put a small turbo from a kei car, disabled the wastegate and put a blow off valve. It got disqualified because it had more power than pro level go karts haha. If you don't control the throttle, that thing will swing around and do a 180. Good times tongue
