Just trying to calculate a new diff ratio.   The gear calculator i have has the ratios for the MX5,  are they same?
400 BHP - 650 KG\'s = 616 BHP Per Ton of Rotary Power

That\'s the way to do it! :Thumbsup!

At that speed with your roof off, your lips and nostrils will be over your eyes and you won\'t be able to see where you\'re going :Giggle  (I take it this is on the stylus ?)

Also, being a rotary it would have run out of fuel long before this would happen :Giggle
