Never say never mate!

As above, what about RSTs?

Would love to know of people/experience/mods/times for:

Nissan 200sx
Skyline GTS-t
Mazda Mx5
205 Gti
MR2

Basically, your typical budget track day cars and what they're capable of.

I know now that 90% of times at the Nurburgring seem to be down primarily to driver talent and knowledge of the track but it's still interesting to see the different times and get an idea of what cheapies can keep up with!
