this Spec Miata doesn't look like its doing too bad on the track, but as soon as he tried his luck against the S CAR G0 on the street......... bad news for him! passed this guy on a four lane, 90 degree turn on the OUTER lane in our direction, then accelerated to 90mph and shut it down! haha, my bad!
