June 30, 2011 - Nancy is the sister car for the Targa Miata at the race.
It's almost ready to run as-is, but it does need a bit of extra rally prep. The most obvious is the Terratrip rally computer.
Why does this car run a Terratrip while the Targa Miata runs a Coralba? Cost. Eric got a great deal on the Coralba five years ago, and it's a great computer. But this fully-featured Terratrip is far more affordable and has proven itself in club competition over the years. The one thing it's missing that would be nice to have is the "pilot speed" function, which tells the crew how many seconds they need to gain/lose in order to hit a specific average speed. Still, the average speed display will work well.
