I know the point of the article revolves around the powertrain, but I must ask - Is the chassis based on the NC Miata?

This question applies to MadMike's "RADBUL 4 Rotor ND MIATA" as well. Seems like MadMike slapped ND body work onto his existing NC Miata.

Not sure, they're mostly skinned tube-frame racecars at that level so it probably doesn't make much difference

I'll be going to see this thing at FD ATL this weekend. Mohan and his dad are some of the nicest people I've met. They always talk Rotary and life with me every year I go. His 20b is practically the same setup he had in his rx8. He just lifted it out and put it in the miata. His dad says the lighter chassis did wonders for on track speed.

I will ask them this weekend if it's based off the NC miata. I don't think it is though. I think the body work looks tacked on because of the wheel/suspension setup.
