2l sports sedan record is 1:39 with an Rx7 but those cars so far divorced from the original who knows what weight, power or tyres its got? http://www.piarc.com.au/files/PHILLIP%20ISLAND%20LAP%20RECORDS.pdf

As for what an MR2 can do, how much do you want to spend?

There was an old thread here that had some laptimes but its probably disapeared into the ether by now.

I'll put my lack of wikkid wheelman skills out there.

Thanks for the feedback people.
So I should be able to meet my target of 1.08 at Wakefield by the sound of it.
There was footage of the ACT MR2 trackday which was loaded up recently. It was good to see how they behave on the track although I suspect they were running street spec tyres. Good little video.

Hopefully I will have the car ready by the end of the xmas break so I can give it a run and give some feedback on the car

cheers

Thanks for the feedback Rob.
As far as how to spend, all the feedback gives an idea of what the MR2 is capable of in what would be considered a level 1,2,3 or 4 state of tune. From what I can see so far no one is going crazy with their expenditure and providing very good results for what they are putting into their cars. I have seen people spend $60+ on Silvia's,GTR's to get similar results to what Im seeing on the thread .Im sure the driving experience will also be more lively than the a 4wd. So its all good news.

I have a look around for the lap time thread too.

merry xmas all

Steve

Was that your xmas present for yourself!
