sounds great, but what a pity they used a mazda3 instead of an rx8 or rx7.

[MVdesign]

@SPHINX144 This team had an RX-7 (13B with huge turbo) from 2004 untill 2009.

I don't really know what happened to it.

[BelgianMusic]

leuke videos. ik woon vlakbij zolder (in tuilt) en hoor elke race tot bij m'n thuis :)

[MVdesign]

@BelgianMusic Dank u. Ik woon in heusden, dus in de tegenovergestelde richting van het circuit als u.

Als de wind goed zit hoort ge motoren ook tot thuis brullen. :D

Veel hoor ik dat niet thuis, want ik ben meestal op het circuit zelf als er iets te doen is. :)

[SummerConspiracy]

I wonder how the Mazda3 market would be if Mazda made them with 13Bs, even 20Bs... Even though the 2.3 Liters are still a blast to drive. : )

Awesome MZ3! Heh, Mazda should consider a 20B engine option at the dealerships. :D
