Bmw's and ecoboost make me wonder.....

I guess this thread should just be called the Spec Miata Discussion thread now. To D-Street we all go

Does it not have the TRD suspension parts? Or do you mean you can swap to the non-TRD parts and go to DS? I don't think it goes to DS as shipped.

justinco · 10-21-2016, 02:24 PM

What about the 2017's?

MrFisty · 10-21-2016, 02:34 PM

I've reached out to them for clarification so I guess we'll see. It's rather stupid really.

Biggins · 10-21-2016, 05:40 PM

For once, I'm glad my off-season is ~5-6 months. If I had to guess, I'll be raising the car up and running DS next year, but I never did get to try my car in full CS trim, so...

On the bright side, our car is THE car to have for DS now. I think a turbo Mustang/Camaro, WRX, and 228/328 M-Sport could work on the right course in DS, but we should not have any excuses in 2017. I still wouldn't want our car for ProSolos though.

Who all voted YES to move the BRZ/FR-S to DS?

Pffft 2017s are the reason we're being moved to DS.

As long as you downgrade rear TRD swaybar and use stock FRS springs from that year (All same from 13-16?), you will be ok (suspensionwise). The front and side Aero package would be the questionable parts (could just unbolt for autocross at a national event). All the rest is under comfort and convenience allowance.

Beautiful cars in the Yellow!

DS is a spec 2015+ WRX class and was poorly attended except at Nationals. The ND Miata should be top CS dog after another year of development and revised transmissions that don't come apart.
They have excellent bottom end pull.

I will predict the new 86 will not be much different in performance autocross wise to the 13-16 cars with the shorter gearing (more 2-3-2 shifts) on longer national type courses.

I think the classing changes will even out attendance numbers in CS and DS...

Shark_Bait88 · 10-24-2016, 09:27 AM

So is anyone actually planning on staying in CS with a TRD car?

Or is everyone jumping to DS?

Or jumping to DS and trading in for turbo Camaros? lol
