Not only did mazda win in the all motor class but in the Modified class it was an all Mazda Rx7 finals in both lanes. Carlos Gonzales with his 1990 second gen. won running 8.0 @ 170mph against a 1983 first gen Rx7 running 8.2 ...

You gotta love that ****...15 year old cars mopping up...

 

Nice, put those Hondas where they belong.

 

 

hhahaha this the day after my buddy said if he got a turbo for his prelude an rx7 would be toast......dumb honda boys.

 

Awesome!

 

I was at the races at moroso yesterday and saw it happen. The run was awesome; close but the 7 came out on top. T'was a wonderful day of racing. There was also a 3 rotor that was stuffed in what seemed to be a Datsun 120Y that ran great all day long. The sound of that motor was awesome. Lisa Kubo from the looks of things is going to put some serious *** whopping on the guys in her class.

 

Will have some pics this week for us guys to salivate on.

 

Oh yes, give me strength rotary gods! Oh how I will love ripping my friend's CRX a new one...when he gets it
