this is a highly subjective ?? since the driver accounts for about 98% of a cars performance on a road course..... I am a novice racer and my conservative lap times at my home track put me near the back of the pack in a spec miata race.....but thats bone stock with the crap tires.....I think on Star Specs I could put down a decent mid pack spec miata time.....

My best lap at Thunderhill is a 2:18 over the top.....Spec miatas can turn 2:08, but those are the very best cars and drivers.... I think I could get my FRS into the low 2:10 range pretty easy on better tires....
