Corrected
That won't be happening.
MX5 driveline is way too expensive to take that sort of power
Looking at $3000 for a conversion kit, £100 for a BMW E36 Getrag 5-Speed and £500 for a Getrag LSD (Cadillac etc)
"Slightly modified" Skoda Superb
Ultimate sleeper, give us more details and what power and weight it is please.
Also what tyre was it running?

When I did the 11.4 I had 520hp. I now have a little more power and I am also currently installing coilovers which should improve 60ft times. Also my dsg map has been tweaked since. I am expecting low 11s or even high 10s if I remove the rear seats and use race fuel.
The 11.4 was with Michelin supersports. Weight was around 1750kg with driver.
Very nice, never realised they had 4x4 offerings, was expecting a FWD on some slicks.
I am sure a high 10s run is possible if everything falls perfect on the day.

dosen't surprise me the Nissan GTRs are top of the list really, with all their electronics that make amazing standing still starts
oh and their price compared to the others

They're cheaper than the SVR!
No. Only 2nd worst.
I thought the best way to get a time is to forget about reaction times and launch when you're ready.
thats just what people with slow reactions times say
Actually a used 2016 GTR would be around 60k so not much in it and stock for stock the SVR is quicker.
Albeit a new list price SVR with options is north of 120k but I paid 80k and very happy with it as it’s an amazing car and your not going to get a rarer car, without spending over 150k. Plus in the spec mine is in they are holding value rather well with key spec been colour and all the carbon stuff and big wing.
Though right now no plans to sell or change and if values start shooting up I will keep it for a long time.

That's it, I am now too ashamed to join the meet next Saturday. Not only I drive a Skoda, I also have the slowest reaction time according to Gibbo's spreadsheet.

Well, if you need your ego massaged then I guess 1/4 mile drag is where you belong
