I think that has to do more with the course ran, which I believe is shorter by about a mile-

Actually I think qualifying is tomorrow.

Practice session bodes well though. However, if those times were when it was wet they could change if qualifying is dry.

At VIR, rain isn't so much a problem for the track. But if you go off-track and hit wet grass, you'll slide forever.

BTW, looking at those pics really makes me want a MazdaSpeed body kit... if is wasn't so much $$$!

I think someone was selling a FRP(fibre reinforced plastic) replica that is of very high quality. It comes unpainted around $700 for the whole kit. Yes Whole kit.

Hmm.. Saturday its Nascar Nextel Cup Qualifying at Noon then the Craftsman truck series after that.. then shortly after midnight Formula One..

Sunday... Oh my god.. more Nascar... then FIM World Superbike...

And inbetween those events.. more nascar shows I bet :(
I understand they get ratings but c'mon.. I'm watching Speed Channel not Nascar Channel. Watch the Rx-8's get pole and win the race and we miss it on national tv coverage. :(

Yes Whole kit.BAD BAD BAD IDEA :spank: :nono:I know that both Rotary Extreme and Extreme Dimensions make both FRP/Fiberglass and Urethane MS replicas. For the front I'd want the more pliable Urethane, and I'd settle for FRP side skirts and wing. (Give a rip on the rear bumper.) I've heard rumors that fitment can be an issue. If anyone has actual experience with these products/companies, I'd be curious to hear about their experiences. Looking at something that's 1/3 the cost of the "genuine" MazdaSpeed stuff, I can deal with a little imperfection, as long as painting and install doesn't end up costing more than the originals.
