I believe this was the fastest lap of the day at the Flyin' Miata open house. I'm trying pretty hard and it shows. A tidier run would have been faster. It's a pity the camera isn't better placed as it's fun to watch the LED tach bounce around and there is a lot of wind noise. On one of the short straights, I actually managed to peg the rev limiter. The track is 0.9 miles and this lap averaged just over 42 mph. Most of it is in second gear with a couple of spots that use third. Ignore the gyrations of the temperature gauge, it turns out there's a voltage leak in there somewhere. Aug 22, 2005
