      ostbullen One of the reasons I bought my Honda delSol Si back in 1996 was because at 6'2" I could not fit in a MX5 with the convertible top up. In fact I had to duck even with the top down to see out of the windshield of a MX5.

      That was definitely a sheep, not a goat. Not just because it looked like it had quite a thick coat, was on terrain more suited for sheep, and there were loose pieces of wool all around the ground, but mainly because this was shot in Ireland and sheep are the main population of that country.

      Psalms 143:10 Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness./Inspiration+We truly must be taught in order to understand God's will. Like the Lord commands us to train children (Proverbs 22:6), our Father also needs to train us. Before he will do that, however, we must take the first step. We must show a token of our faith by asking Him to show us in the first place. Do that, and our faith journey begins! /Prayer+ Gentle and loving Lord, I am truly the most fortunate person that has existed. We are all equally fortunate, blessed by Your holy nature, O Lord. I ask that You show me what You want me to do with my life; show me the best way that I can be utilized in Your name; show me how I can help others to see Your bright light shining in the darkness. I humbly pledge my service to You, ABBA, in accordance with Your commandments. Amen.

    that extreme acceleration 0-45 mph in 1 second explains the huge bruise on my leg when a greyhound [a rescue dog] I was releasing off her lead used my legs as a starting block. the force of her accelaration knocked me backwards. These hounds are real Queens of Speed, even the slow ones are fast. A split second is what separates a champ from an 'also ~ran' but in pet terms they are all winners.

    I never enjoyed the mk3 if I am honest, my dad has a 2012 2.0 and it just doesn't feel like the old one, it just feels to built up, too much like a 'normal' car when compared to the NA and NB which both had that rattly go kart feel that made the 5 so famous.

      Clearly in the piece Hammond mentions that there is only a 10kg increase. However further research indicates that the last Mx5 NB 1.8i had an unladen weight of 1025kg and the newer NC 1.8i had an unladen weight of 1075kg and 1090kg for the 2.0i

IDK why it needed such a thing considering how well it behaved around Hammond and , I'm guessing, the owner. None of the other dogs in the clips of the actual dog race had muzzles on either, so it's not like some safety requirement for the sport like shin guards for soccer/football. It just seems a cruel way to treat an animal without reason...

    Just looked it up,same thing. IN this case I agree with you, definitely taking the Bentley to the banger race/demolition derby lol. I stand corrected, you were right on that point.
    The follow up? Parading it somehow through the richest part of town for all to see. Now THAT would be epic lol

      Yes and no. Greyhounds are sprinters. They can easily win a race like this, but they are not made for long-distance or endurance running. Short bursts of energy and then they are spent and have to rest- all day preferably on a comfy cushion.

      That's only true for a couple of hundred meters. After that the greyhound leaves the cheetah panting in the dust and can keep running for several kilometers. Greyhounds have extraordinary lung capacity and high heart rate to oxygenate the muscles that the cheetah can't match. So if it's a race longer than than a quick rush, the "boom" is on you.

    Sadly thousands of greyhounds that do not run so fast are killed every year just to fuel greyhound racing and gambling.

    It comes stock with a soft top, which you have to fold down to fit the hardtop. You can, however, remove the soft top, and attach the hardtop permanently, Just a little fiberglass to do it, the hardtop is fiberglass. I have seen these on track. I used to own one, and what he says about 'Jinbattai', horse and rider in perfect harmony, is 100% true. You don't feel disconnected from the car at all. After driving it for about a week, you drive with instinct. The shift is short and 'notchy'.

    I for one love that you used the music from the Splinter Cell soundtrack By: Amon Tobin. Plus I have a 90 Miata MX-5 and I much prefer it to the newer MX-5's because its so much lighter and simple. Plus you can do a lot of customization to really take the car to the next level. But every time I pull up to a Mazda dealership they try to get me to buy a new MX-5.
