dang.... am looking for a pic of mine loaded up, can't find one but here is a guy I know, Bruce from Adventure Cycles, he's well famous for carrying epic loads w/his Daihatsu Mira's... he's been given tickets (which he gets off) & has I think recently appeared in the news.

Wish I had taken a pic from when I went to Meremere with 6 tyres and all the other gear in the car. That was with hardtop

Not really an epic load but stuffed freshly painted rims ($50 on TM!) and tyres in wherever they'd fit for a quick trip down to the workshop for a fit and balance.

Ha ha, cannot beat that today NicF, I have 2 sets of Momo race buckets in Vader, he & I are just heading off to deliver a pair to the new owner, w/one in the co-pilots position & the other on the tray..

4 Seat Miata?

No shit (sitting at the lights) "bro, you have something sticking out the back of your car?"

If you look at the pic you will notice that Chris had the load on the passenger side extruding to increase the down force on that side to compensate the weight on the passenger side......

why?

CAUSE RACE CAR!

out of all the sports cars you own, I just knew that you would favor your mx5 the most, Mr Stark.

Huh, I did that once, when helping a mate to move, we had to get a couch down a steep driveway, so used the MX5 as a ute, but that was down a driveway, whole nother ball game taking it on the road.

Dude. Thats such a legit costume.

You can't not make an Ironroadster now.

The front badge = the arc reactor.

Put 'cool white' LEDs in the bumper lights to make the eyes.

Its red already. Good start.

Wheels = colour matched gold.

Let me know when you're done.

Turned the car into a 4 seater (can't see the seat that was squashed inside)

Turned it into a 4wd by putting a 6 speed in the boot and pulling the hard top off

Chris you have no excuse not to pick up your engine now. Just take the hardtop off!

Btw that's a strange engine for an mx. Not sure what I'm looking at but it doesn't look like the one in my car (or I just need glasses) :p
