is that closer to proving me right?
or at least you less right?
You cant realistically compare 2 totally different chassis' / setup. Now if that miata had thrown on larger tires and repeated the test, then the results would be conclusive.

SCC pulled 0.97G on a s13 with 235's. If the goal was to see who could pull a G with the smallest amount of rubber, you would win. However the car doesn't explode when you pull more than a G, just maybe your bladder
