I think for this year, if Signal Auto enters the S15, I would put my money on them.

600hp SR20 built for the track.....

For honda, I'd say the S200 Modulo FP, or the Exige w.K20 would win.

Weird, the rest of my post git delete. What i said after that "yeah" was that I'll put my $$ on the 600HP S15. All out power.

Word. I know this is a Honda site, but its just too fast.

Partly because its specifically tuned to be an allout track car.

Partly because its got a T88 thats as big as my head!

I think a 335 whp turbo Miata would put a major hurting on an FP S2000. If there's an S2000 in the competition it's going to need forced induction to keep up. That, and since this is a competition among tuner cars a factory-fresh unmodified car wouldn't be one of the entrants.

As far as any sort of Silvia, thus far all of the cars in the last couple years have been done by tuners who sell to customers in this country. The Signal car is a drag racer and wouldn't be very well-suited to this test which is mainly a road course with a top speed run.

Problem with the Miata would be the lack of aerodynamics. The Exige has power and aerodynamics on it's side. (factory tuned even )

Actually the orange Signal SIlvia is tuned for the track. It set some record for the lap times in Tsukuba or Motegi. I donno honestly.

Ah well, I cant wait for this either way.
