NASA tests new moon car
June 12, 2008 - Researchers at NASA have tested the chassis of a prototype lunar vehicle. The car is much more agile than its predecessor because he has six wheels, each of which can turn a full circle. This allows the drive in any direction, for example aside. That makes it easier to get the car fixed and has run in loose sand loose.

LS6 Miata track car for sale on nasaforums - Miata Turbo Forum - Turbo Kitten is watching you test compression.



nasaforums.com • View topic - LS6 Powered (V8) Mazda Miata (XP Autocross and Track Beast)


Quote:
Engine:
2004 LS6 (Originally out of a 2004 Z06 Corvette)
Fresh rebuild with less than 100mi.
Balanced and Blue Printed
ASA Cam
Ported 243 heads
LS6 Intake
Custom 6qt oil pan
3 qt accusump with EPC valve
Very conservatively tuned at 390HP/380TQ (12.0 AFRs, and 2 deg of timing pulled up top) I'm sure it's very capable of low to mid 400s, but I wanted something extremely safe and reliable.
