Mazda Race Days!

waggie945 · Mar 4, 2004

Mazda "Rev It Up" coming to a City near you for only $40.00!!!

First stop, San Francisco this weekend.
Then Orange County March 13-14th, and San Diego the following week . . . Sounds like a total BLAST, racing Mazda 3's for time on an autocross course, test driving the new RX-8 and doing some go-karting:

I'm going to the SD one for part of my spring break... going to swing by Mexico as well... Both should be a blast... Did anyone go last year? Just wondering what it is really like? $40 just seems too cheap and wondering what the catch is and how I get around it...

Uhh...have you heard of the RX-8?? 228HP from a 1.3L!! ...0-60 mph in 5.9 sec, 0.25mi in 14.5 sec @ 95.6 mph, 6 gears... BBC's "Top Gear" raced it around a track and it tied the BMW M3 time... Not bad, I'd say...

What exactly is "kick"? Only stats can tell, words mean nothing when it comes to this argument. Find a car that can pull in such stats at the same price... New vettes start at over 40k...

I think that Longshot is right about the Mazda RX-8.

Not to sound like a car salesman, but any car that puts out 182 horsepower per liter ( more output per liter than a Porsche 911 or a Ferrari 360 Modena ) and has 50/50 weight distribution, not too mention a Championship at LeMans . . . all for $32,500 out the door . . .must be a POS!
