Furai at Buttonwillow

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YMcE-01sJs

Sorry if this has already been posted but I saw on autoblog today an in-car video of the Furai doing hotlaps at Buttonwillow.

All I can say is OH MY GOD that engine sounds amazing. Comparing it to the RX8 is like a chainsaw compared to a sewing machine.

Devs is awesome. Lucky bugger!! Mazda's up to something. There's no way in my mind at least, that they're running that at Button just for fun.
