Winter teardown

Post by sdwarf36 »

One of the advantages of a "real" race car ;) is the ease of maintanance.
Translating road racing to hillclimbing:
Proper tire selection== nothing hooks up on moss or wet leaves.
Staying on the racing line==anything paved is considered good.

The Miata is almost to that point ... with the exception of the roof. I can't get over how much the roof gets in the way of the roll cage. How long does it actually take to tear down to that point?

Its all Dzus tabs. 40-50 total in the car-about 1/2 for the body. Maybe a minute + half? Depend how many I drop and how far they roll under the car. :?
