As I'm 5'7", #155 the size issue in a Miata wouldn't be a problem for me.

Every SCCA region requires a hardtop in this class except for the Rocky Mountain region (where I am at). From what I hear, most guys runs with tops here anyway because aerodynamically they run faster. (Weight no issue since you have a minimum weight anyway.)

Also, I think it's going to cost more than $ 5,000 to have a race prepared Miata. I keep checking the papers, etc., and you can hardly find any stock Miata (even 92's to 94's) for less than $3000.
