Chasing Boss 302 at VIR

takjak2 · 05-27-2013, 08:17 PM

Chasing down the organizer of the SVT Superfest at VIR in his Boss 302. He's on slicks; I'm on RE-11s. Don't mind the bug guts.

Impressive

What do you have on the car?

cossie1600 · 05-27-2013, 09:22 PM

How come your car sounds so much better than a stock Z? Is it the Nismo exhaust or something?

Good run btw

Oh, and the Z sounds so good doing it !!!

Lol! Boss 302 on slicks ties spec Miata record ...on VIR

takjak2 · 05-28-2013, 02:06 PM

Yea yea Shamu, I know you don't know positive.

Sound wise it's K&N filters, stock tubes, stock headers and cats, AAM mid pipe, Nismo muffler.

If you can beat a SM track record on street tires in a Z you are doing good.

ChrisSlicks · 05-28-2013, 04:43 PM

Nicely done.

sixpax · 05-28-2013, 04:46 PM

Cool !

I missed 2 phone calls, and 2 messages here at work while watching, but I couldn't care less!
That was a fine performance, my friend!

Tickwomp · 05-28-2013, 05:06 PM

Very nice. Camara angle makes it difficult to see into the turns. In the 2nd half of the video, you're killing him on the braking areas and turns!

cossie1600 · 05-28-2013, 06:10 PM

Never let a Miata near you, they are like cockroaches.

mdxj · 05-28-2013, 06:13 PM

Nice vid, I would love to be able to run at VIR! You have to respect the power from the new mustang! You were on his rear through every corner but it was just as impressive to watch how he took off down the straights

Great driving buddy!!! Sounds Great!!

+1 on killing him in the brake zones. What brake setup (pads, fluids, ducts?) are you running?
