MAINEly MX-5's

John J, thanks!

Hoping to finally put some miles on the car this coming weekend. It's interesting, and completely counter-intuitive, that more HP would lend itself to what seems (to me) to be "more aggressive" gearing... but as you've stated, I guess it wholly depends on your powerband and what you're doing with the car. I know some of the FM cars are geared 3.73, and perhaps it's because of the 525 cam's powerband.

Question about your T56 Tranzilla: is the shifter angled towards the driver? Are you using the Flyin' Miata adaptor for the shift knob? I always see pictures that show perfect placement and it seems to be mostly vertical, but mine is slanted toward the driver... I have a picture somewhere to show what I'm referring to.
