The car will be at Sevenstock late September. It's not a rumor. It's a drag RX-8.

It's in Irvine, California at Mazda R&D HQ. It's quite the rotary mecca. This year will be my 3rd one, and if it's as much bigger this year as last year's was from the previous one (uh.. hang on a sec, I'm dizzy now) then it should be huge.

Yeah, I saw that also. It was red and it did look like an RX-8.
