great video. I love these guys, they always seem to be having fun. Can't wait for some BRZ/86 vs S2000 matchups. Should be fun

They had a harder time overtaking the Miata than I was expecting.

Double wishbones / drop top / less weight - Miata > BRZ

In Canada the MX-5 is gonna be roughly 2 grand more to start than a BRZ or 3 grand more than the FRS. I could really care less about whether a car has double wishbones or not. It is very arbitrary to say that it is an automatic disadvantage when cars like the 911 still use MacPherson type suspension too. Look how much body roll the Miata showed in comparison.

+1

BRZ/FRS all the way for me. The Miata is a drop top, which is a good "advantage" (feature) but the race really wasn't that close once everyone got moving along.
