I would be perfectly content being seen driving that.

Try again. I had the same problem with those pics that arent recognized as pics.

SNTP managed it somehow?

As noted in the Mazda6 thread, Speedsource isn't actually using the 6. Unlike their RX-8s which were still factory dimensions with the look-a-like skin, the 6s are actually scaled down because the factory dimensions are actually too big to race with.

Basically a Riley like the RX-8 with a Carbon skin? :)

What not to like ;)

That's a given :(

but with what we have to work with it's still a win ;)

Rxnincj 01-04-2013 02:10 AM

Live Timing is up for for the Roar practice ATM. Only one GX car, Cayman, on the track.

Yeah those pictures are a scaled down 6? Looks really long still

To me, that normal sized door looks rather large next to it. Doesn't look big to me.

Rolex 24 line up:

Second day in a row that Jalopnik featured something on the Mazda6. Yesterday they raved about the new 6 and how desirable it is. Today, we get some Diesel Grand Am GX awesomeness:

Quite amusing seeing this behemoth in these pics. I can only imagine how awesome it will be watching it tear up road courses against much smaller cars in its class.

Behemoth?

That guy leaning on the rear wing isn't 7ft tall...

Back in Black...... hope it stays that way. Never bought into that white livery they had in last years 24hr. Neither did they. Rest of the season #70 was black. Well at least we know how Patrick D. is keeping himself busy...Actor Patrick Dempsey

Another nice shot of the front

It is a rather large car (for its class) packing a decent amount of punch. Direct relevance to the meaning of "behemoth."

Enjoy.

SayNoToPistons 01-05-2013 10:42 PM

You work at the dealer?

monchie 01-06-2013 11:16 PM

Never seen the Speedsource 6 in action yet, and i cannot wait for the Rolex racing to begin to see it.

MazdaMovement 01-06-2013 11:33 PM

I keep seeing people speak about it's huge size. What are the race car dimensions again? It does not look any bigger to my eyes than the RX-8 race car.

Why do some media outlets have to continuously refer to diesels as 'oil burners'? I feel like that type of talk keeps people viewing them as bad for our environment which is so foolish.

Rant over :sad:
