Get tae 🤬 ya radge..!! It ain't over 'til the fat bint squeals...

EDIT:
I just wanna make sure that if the SL 600 '98 is legal for this event? It says in the description that it has a fold roof and I also expect it to have two seats since the new one also has two. What do you think?
By internet definition, it's a 2-door Grand Tourer. I can't imagine anyone will get hung up about that, it's a 2-door, 2 seat, foldy roof thing. And if you can get one under 450PP, I think you deserve a medal

Nice car, smooth and fast, just.way to many PP.
Note: the SL500 '98 can just squeeze into 450PP. The '02 is 445PP as a 0/0/0 car with no oil change.
The SL600 '98 stock with no oil change/engine rebuild is 464PP as a 0/0/0 car. The '04 is 512PP as a 0/0/0 car.

Oh god, I decided to stick in this because I thought I had a vaguely unique car 
so many complaints of overused MX5s...

Good call, that is the car I would have tuned but thought there were enough S2000s already entered.
Didn't know anyone was tuning an mx5 when I started working on it.Oh god, I decided to stick in this because I thought I had a vaguely unique car
Just wanted something that could keep the Hondas honest.
I do have an MG T160 tuned up but saw someone is planning on entering it so I went with the Mazda.
EDIT: cars will always feel different when tuned by other tuners so your choice is still unique because it will be your tune on it when you release it. 👍

I started making an S2000, couldn't make it turn, ignored a ton of cars I didn't want to tune, started a Z4 and just gave up and fully tuned it for something else, then grabbed the Mazda thinking how everyone seems to hate it...and now I'm stuck with something that is apparently just generic. Still gonna upload it if I can make it decent tonight...

Going to check out the MR-S V Edition (6MT) '02 and see if I can figure out why no one has entered one of these yet. Nice looking lightweight MR should perform okay I would think.

@Dragonthing: lol, I also tuned a Z4 thinking I would go with it.
Might check with Praiano I think he mentioned tuning it beforeGoing to check out the MR-S V Edition (6MT) '02 and see if I can figure out why no one has entered one of these yet. Nice looking lightweight MR should perform okay I would think.

With 400+bhp and some aero, it is actually a good car
I guess roadsters are not my kind of thing

Thanks Praiano for posting your temporary results. I am still working on my MG TF160 so I know I have some work to do.
ACSR, don't let me stop you from entering another MG! It is a fun car, no doubt.
or another idea...Has anyone seen Jackthalad around? If he doesn't show up, can I pretend to be him and enter his Eunos Roadster?

My MR-S is 1'25"700 and very safe, no happy tail. I'll publish it tomorrow.@Dragonthing: lol, I also tuned a Z4 thinking I would go with it.

No Lotus Elise's?? I just ran a 1:26 something with mine.
It's a targa they are saying it's not allowed .

I assume the Elise doesn't count?
No, I can't tell the difference between all the different types of convertibles to figure out what's allowed and what's not.
but there's no cross bar??? How is that a targa..it's classified as a roadster on wikipedia!! wiki doesn't lie
That's what they say..... i really don't know.. perhaps because the back part after the seats is part of the car????? Don't know.
