    What did you used to have on it?
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Nice! I've done a few trackday laps there in MX5's but never wanted to spend the money on competing properly. Had a standard Mk1 and a pretty rapid turbo Mk1. Sold that a few years back and got a Mk2 RS recently but just a road car for now.

    Welcome aboard.
