Bestmotoring.jp New RX-8 Races
I wen't to the BestMotoring.jp website I checked out a section
called back number which has previous issues and it seems there are a few videos of the RX-8 racing that I have not seen before. One is in the rain against 4 doors sedans the G35 and the TSX and the other is the Mazdaspeed RX-8 against the Nismo-Z and some other cars. Has anyone seen any of these? Does anyone know the result??? http://www.bestmotoring.jp/digest/BM/0406.html http://www.bestmotoring.jp/digest/BM/index.html |
Nice, they even raced mazda mpv and the 3.
|

|

|
cool link thanks.
|
Man, I really want to see this outcome. Bestmotoring has some of the coolest races. Some a bit controversial, Japanese Propaganda
as some would say. But its cool none the less. |
Looks like the Z took this one.

On track Starting Grid: 1. Renault Clio Sport V6 (MR) 2. Mazdaspeed RX8 3. Lotus Elise 111R 4. Nismo Z S-Tune GT 5. Honda Integra Type-R 6. BMW M3 CSL 7. Lancer EVO VIII MR Track condition was wet at 7.8 Degree Celcius Finish Grid: 1. BMW M3 CSL 2. Lancer EVO VIII MR 3. Nismo Z S-Tune GT (Overtaken by EVO on second last corner lap) 4. Lotus Elise 111R 5. Renault Clio sport V6 (MR) 6. Mazdaspeed RX8 7. Honda Integra Type-R They do a Review on Mazdaspeed RX8 and i think it's hopeless. They compare with Stock RX8. 0-100 kmh = MazdaSpeed RX8 faster by 0.100 sec 0-400 m = Stock RX8 faster by 0.100 sec There you go ;) Cheers |
Damn that kinda sucks, It didnt do as good as I would have hoped. Well at least it didnt get last. Where did you see this video? Did you order it or view it online?
|
Also if you could
Lap times or Fastest Laps? |
don't be disappointed. that's not surprising at all
first of all, of course the m3 csl and evo viii mr would win. those are the super fast versions of really really fast cars. the mr is arguably the fastest car out of japan to date. the elise 111r is the same thing as the us-spec elise, excellent power-to-weight ratio, weighing ~1900 pounds and is powered by 190hp celica engine. that those three would beat the ms rx-8 is a given and that particular nismo z is no usual nismo z. it's a new type loosely based on the jgtc race car. its engine is tweaked to ~300hp, it's been heavily modified, long nose and long tail w/ various aero parts, and it costs ~$65k (!). it's nismo's all-out effort to tune the z, its flagship (or desperate attempt, depending on your point of view :p) and that renault, while i think it's a p.o.s. :p it's essentially like this: take a geo metro, strip off weight, convert it to mid-engine rwd, drop in a race-tuned v6, of course it'd be fast the ms rx-8 is the same a-spec from before, w/ stock engine and only chassis components and the exhaust, so given the opponents it probably still did quite respectably. at least it didn't fall behind the integra :D and why is it slower than stock? 'cuz it has no engine tweaks (yet) and it's heavier, mostly due to the body kit and the wing |
total lap time:
M3 CSL 5'40"96 Evo VIII MR 5'45"76 Elise 111R 5'46"89 Nismo Z 5'47"45 Renault 5'54"37 RX-8 5'55"22 Integra Type R 5'55"45 fastest lap: M3 CSL 1'06"99 Evo VIII MR 1'06"54 Elise 111R 1'07"73 Nismo Z 1'07"78 Renault 1'09"50 RX-8 1'09"31 Integra Type R 1'09"34 |

i got the info and times off their website. they usually post battle results. yeah check ebay. there's one selling for 25 bucks right now, here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ayphotohosting but it's a region 2 dvd, which i think would only play on your computer. be careful tho 'cuz i think most dvd programs only lets you chage region settings a set # of times |
Ok i Finally be able to ripped it. So anyone can host? Or i'll host if someone teach me how to Host using Bit Torrent. ;)
|

You need a Torrent Program to download it. I also put in the RX8 Tuned (hot version) for you guys interest. http://jarek.dnsalias.org/torrent/ enjoy |
couldn't get it to download...maybe it's just too crowded right now?
|
you can download it here
http://pingpong-abc.sourceforge.net/download.php after install just click on any file you want to download. Torrent is like sharing files with others, therefore after you finish leave the Torrent open as long as possible so people can share it. The more people share the more it faster for download. Cheers |
cool thanks a bunch!
|
waiting to download, can't want till if finishes!
