Yes sir, that's why this:
Gets followed by this:
Hopefully I keep the rust at bay for a while, I do avoid driving it in the salt unless the snow is just too enticing.
Update: this car continues to rule. In the spring I built this mtb tray for it so I can drive it even more instead of having to use a different vehicle when I'm planning to ride, works great!
After ~7 years of owning this thing, I decided it should have another fresh timing belt. I've got this under 45min consistently now, I've probably done more MR2 timing belts than all other chassis/engines combined:
Yep it's still great.
Seems like that old MR2 gets to rest after a life of racing and just be enjoyed as a fun lil commuter.
In reply to Darkrider :
I think it may someday become a racecar again, but for now this is the best job I have for it- rallying takes up all the competition time and budget and this car is probably too nice an example to do that to. For me, racing something more modern (for chassis strength and ease of parts acquisition) makes a lot of sense and so does driving something older, for the enjoyment and simplicity of it.
