Arrow Race A Family Member?

I recently got challenged to a race by my aunt! She seems convinced her 98' Miata can beat me. I know i can destroy a stock Miata on a straight run but here is the catch, It has the factory Mazdaspeed turbo kit on it (I know it came as an option near the end of the last generation.). Im not Miata pro, i dunno shit about them. Will this thing give me any trouble? My Mods are GMPP Stage 2, K&N Typhoon, B Woody Traction Bars. Thanks guys, id love it if it was an Uber-sleeper and it destroyed me, but chances are its not.

race a relative only on the track homie.... u def don't want that going bad...

i remember looking at the ms miata's one time when i was at a dealership, seemed like some pretty damn peppy machines if you ask me. but i don't remember the HP figures on that 1.9L, so can't magazine race "accurately" (if there is such a thing) for ya.

good luck tho. i'd say just do it, who cares if you win/lose

I keep trying to get my aunt to run me in her S2000. Maybe one day i'll convince her and when she loses we can throw a turbo on it.
