MR. Trembley dint say the # or the name of the teams, he only told me we are building 5 chassis right now one of them is the new #70, lets say the #44 is included in this bach

we end up with this:

1-#8
2-#40
3-#44
4-Spencer
5-#69
6-#70
7-???
8-???
9-???

#70 speedsource (newer and lighter)
#69 speedsource
#40 hypersport
#44 aponte bros
#63 team spencer
#08 goldin bros (not a mazdaspeed)

4 unknown

All of these cars should make Daytona 24. Since for all teams, it is the race to be in, even if they run only 1 race a season

Who has heard 30 screaming rotors? Maybe they'll make history for the most rotaries in a single race

nothing mayor, they are trying new things on the car to see if they can improve them, but nothing mayor that I know of

there are some rumors that hypersport will have another car along with the #40, but this are unconfirm rumors

Maybe someone in the circle can report something for us

Hypersport #40 along with 2 speedsource RX-8s are now entered in November test days @ Daytona.

Also I seen somewhere that Hypersport might field 2 RX-8s. I wouldn't be surprised if it happens, since Hypersport seems to have the financial backing to accomplish that.

Did that driver ever get in any kind of trouble for causing that accident?

The new #70 should be better on the new Pireilli tires. They had some testings with it before the car was totaled, so if they build an entirely new car, adjustments should've been done to it, to better suit the new tires.

+1.

I sent an e-mail to Sylvain after that crash expressing my sadness about the loss of the #70 car. He replied saying that they already had an eye on '08, and that I should tell everyone I knew to go out and buy a Mazda.

Chomping at the bit for the next series!
