My Twin :D

I need to clean this sucker.

Chillin'

Hai.

On any given weekend, there are more Mazdas on the road-race tracks of America than any other brand of vehicle.
Haha, actually there were 12 Mazdas in my running group. (20 total in 1 group)
3 FCs, 3 RX-8s, 3 Miatas, 2 Mazda 6s and 1 FD lol


Well, despite the sunroof giving me 1 inch less of headroom making me kinda have to slouch a bit to drive, but yeah, this gives me a place to mount the camera so I can get a glimpse of my mistakes.
Videos and track pics to come later.
Man, I feel dumb, and I feel like I'm about to get flamed lol, posting this might not be a good idea.
Gee... I NEED to work on my shifting indeed
Got a hell lot better at the end of the session lol. See that's what simulator does to you when ur just driving cars with paddle shifts

Nice. And don't worry, driving my Mx6 I've got a video of me doing the fastest 180 of my life because I tapped the brakes mid transfer between two corners. Very stupid mistake looking back at it, haha. But you get better, especially when you're actually getting out there. 
Keep it up, there's tons of fun to be had. I can't wait to get my Rx8 out for some events myself.

Little Miata holding everybody up for 5 laps and just refuses to give point-bys... Dunno what the marshalls/instructor doing... Should given blue flags or even black flags.


Grrrrr... Friend here just too concentrated and forget to give me point bys lol

Woah, for some reason, I felt the engine's more alive than ever this morning and, and, and much smoother? Am I imagining things or did my car just got the stretch it much needed during the event?
You probably aren't. Doing the track day allowed you to push the engine harder for a longer amount of time, ultimately allowing you to burn off the carbon build up in the engine. That's most likely why it's smoother now, which is a good thing.
Went to the track again last weekend.

Didn't bring a camera or really have a photog this year, but here's a gif

The only pic of the day in 2012.

Very jealous Dezau! That track is on my bucket list. It is an expensive track from what I have seen and quite a drive for me but I will drive it one day.
Oh and my car never drives better than the week following a track weekend

Looks great! I love that sound. I will be driving by your way in a few weeks on the way to Roebling near Savannah GA. Interested in going again? There are 11 8's registered at this time.
