hmm, i can think of a lot of other ways to get a new engine, without doing something so stupid. I guess if someone sets out to destroy something, they will do anything. poor car.

And you wonder why Mazda issued the recall on the RX8 for reving the engine for long time's at idle.

that video isn't the best of them, there is one with the oil, and coolant removed.

The Car was pegged for somewhere around 15-23minutes........that is extremely LONG!!! Do that with a normal engine and it would barely last few minutes.

in a way though, it kinda goes to show that the rotary engine is very durable. if it can be gunned for that long, thats pretty impressive to me. still sad though i would never do that to any car no matter how old the car is.
