Years ago I bought a beat up 94-95 Spec Miata and set out to convert it to an ITA car. At the time ITA was a pretty populated class but not as large as Spec Miata. I wanted to race in a smaller field until I felt more comfortable with wheel to wheel. Now ITA is sparse in the SEDIV and I'm thinking about converting the car back to Spec Miata specs. The big question; can the NA 1.8L car be competitive in a field of mostly 99-00 model cars? I still have most of the original parts so the conversion would be of minimal expense. Shocks, exhaust manifold and ECU being the biggest expense.
At least as a SPEC Miata, I could run either SM or ITA.
What do you think? Is the juice worth the squeeze?
