Got dusted following an rx8 on skyline and a miata on mt tam. is it the body roll and the sound of tire, or does a stock base 370 not stand a downhill chance to hang with these two cars? am i asking for too much to hang with them on the tight mountain turns???
i put swifts on, k&n, post-mafs, berk hfc+cat backs, what else?

In Auto-x the miatas are hard to beat in my Z. A lot of it is ME. Some is the Z set up. A miata is just smaller, lighter, more nimble. Let the flaming begin, but remember, this is MHO.

You do indeed. You are the great warrior on the track and the cones tremble in your presence. The sound of Zynful's engine starting strikes fear and trembling in them. They bow to your will. They shrink in your awesomeness.

Thank me for finding the problem with your well thought out and modified
370Z...You sir have one rare Z... In Japan they offered a valet system for
safety and the unexperienced Z driver. Take your Z to your local dealership
and have them disengage this valet option. You will find a new world awaits
your Z and you my fellow forum 370Z buddy. Cheer's

Please do not post when you are under the influence of hallucinogens. Based on your syntax, and my experience, my guess is peyote.
