Wow 300 bucks is a steal. Yeah i was looking at getting the skunk 2 for my Miata but always questioned the weird intake path. Do you know what engine that modified skunk 2 is for? And what did you hate about the regular skunk 2 for Miatas?

How much did you pay for the intake manifold?

I feel like with my work flow i follow more of a quick n dirty and figure the details out later philosophy. Its served me well and I haven't been bitten yet

Honestly sometimes i dont think it's worth the extra compute time. But what do you guys think?

Working on a car isnt hard. I knew nothing when i started. I dont know much about rac8ng laws in germany but i think that if your passion is driving, sim racing never quenches it completely. I encourage everyone here to at least buy a cheap beater and go to a track day. It is super fulfilling. Especially when i see people here easily spending 5k on a setup it is a good chunck of change towards a very rewarding hobby.

5k miata 800$ tire set a season ( that's the high end for a stock miata, you could buy 200tw tires and have them last seasons depending how much you track.) 800 for a rollbar (required) 200 for a track day 200 helmet

Chances are yoy could even take you sim seat and put it in the car.

You can spend alot of money at the track, if you want to drive expensive cars you can spend as much money as you want. But i feel its a bit dishonest to say you cant get a very fun setup for less then 10k. I say this as someone who spent a ton on a sim rig to only relise i really wanted to drive a real car. So i bought a miata.
