I know it is early in the season, but it looks like the MX-5 isn't the overdog in CS that I feared.

If GH Sharp had not coned his last run in CS, he would have been in 3rd only a couple tenths out of the lead (Note that he is a past national champion and even helped with the SoloPro School in Florida a few years ago).  The Scion continues to surprise me ... well-balanced but awfully fast for an underpowered car......very much like a Miata.

However, note that in STR, the new MX-5 is leading ... Development will continue to make the car faster and faster .... LOTs of really fast, national-level drivers have picked up or are running the new Miata ... interesting.

3rd heat (STR) running now ... out of 5 heats.

Darrin DiSimo, author of the Pro Solo software, is running a '16 MX-5 ... near the top ... but just coned his first run ... 2 more to go.

Interesting results ... Jinx Jordan won his class as did Mr. Roberts followed by Eric Peterson in ES (both SoloPro instructors) ... seems to be quite a few cones hit.  Wonder what the course looks like ... saw some video somewhere on FB .. Steve Hoelsher in his Prepared MR2 ... from yesterday

In-car from the leader in FP ... in an S2000...  from Saturday.

Whoops!  Correction, that was a video from January at the same lot ... different course ... but somewhat limited due to the narrow lot ... almost like an airport course really.

There are some others on YouTube ...

Here's Sam Strano leading over Matthew Braun (4/10) after one day .... in SSR in a pair of Z06's .... That will be a good battle today!

After 2 runs today the '16 MX-5 is 1st and 2nd with a run remaining.  Ricky Crow in his S2000 is in 9th (2nd yesterday I believe) but he has coned both of his first two runs today ... putting himself in a hole .... A real test to see how he does ... they are running now!

Check the results on the link above (1st post).

And Ricky gets it together and wins over two days by 0.067 seconds!  Less than 1/10 over two days, two courses.   Amazing job.  The 2016 MX5 was 2nd and 3rd.

Darren Murray and his son, has run with us a number of times and he has a Stalker. They are supercharged and are fairly quick.

Interesting that STR all ran the new Rival 1.5, while street classes all went with the RE-71R.

Might have to do with size availability?  Rivals come in a better size for STR with their tire size limitations?
