Good photos mr Butler.
I never had a chance to ask, but how does/did the Mg go?
Cheers MG? Me and James have an mx5, it performed so well, just needs to be a bit quicker in the straights
Couple more pictures of Tony, got the better lens on for these pics

Yeah sorry got confussled.
Sounds like you suffer from the same problems as me. The mx5's are quite good out of the box handling wise so I beleive, just have the same problem as anything smallish engined, speed.

Looks pretty awesome to me  good line there 
--- this picture however 
Bit of a shallow line going with this one??? 
I guess it's probably where I had to go off line shallow into the corner after overtaking a slow mx5 into this corner

I always see pics of me on the track and think my line looks terrible, always feels right on track though. Damn it I need to film myself.

I've decided I'm gonna raise the rear of my car a bit 
Plus I may or may not of just spent £650 on a j's racing ECU for my car
Will lower the vtec to 5300 and change mapping slightly, improving my drive out of the bends a lot!

I was watching your car on track warren on a different session to the WR one, looked really good out there, looked like it was handling well, was it not?

alot of people said that
it doesnt handle the way i want it too, its not balanced, just understeets, it did handle better with tony in the car, it seems if you add weight to it (4 up) it handles much much better
got a few more thing to do, then should handle how i want, atm its running almost positive camber, so want to give it about 1.5 degress neg with adjusterable top mounts
rear springs are too soft, so going to fit some harder ones
and the car, although not on track, pulls all over the road, as feels scary to drive flat out, need to find whats causing this too
