and Im not a fan boy.

and really? I'm pretty sure mazda holds down D1 with the Fd's and the Lemans, and American Lemans seriers with the other cars they run, pretty well. like, back in 1992 Lemans BANNED mazda from running rotor engine, because they were beating everyone on the course with out trying, and were more reliable than there piston competitors. i mean SKIP BARBER even uses mazdas to teach driving schools and racing schools.... why dont they use honda for that if honda is so great?

I'm so fucking tired of you honda guys acting like your little turbo 4 banger is the quickest, most well made shit ever to hit the road.... yeah it might be quick going the 1/8 mile from light to light on the street next to miss bundy's sienna. but in reality, thats all its good for.

My Porsche 924s was a stock NA 4 banger pushing 160hp. I took on a kid in a mustang fox body with 410hp, and ate him till i ran out of power in the top of 4th gear @ 138mph with 5th gear giving me no power, and he walked on me.

needless to say i didnt want to race him from the beginning, but when he caught me on the road alone, i had no choice. and he still respects me for being able to handle that ride.

NOW, that being said, if someone was to tell me that Porsche didnt put race engineering in there street cars id laugh at them. cuz theres no way a 160hp 4 banger should even keep up with 410hp v8.

its the same with mazda, for you to say youd buy a mazda over its competitors, and that they out perform there competitors car for car on the street, BUT mazda doesnt use its race engineering to do so...... WTF?! where do they get the ideas from, elmo, big bird, bert and ernie?!

as for never seeing an F1 mazda...... http://www.japanesesportcars.com/galleries/img2998.htm
mazda doesnt run F1 but they have there own class in SCCA thats close to Formula 3... so, even though its not quite the big guns, its not like they havent done it before.
You do know that up till 2008 Ford owned over 30% of Mazda and even played a role in most of its Design and modeling.
So Ford must not suck to bad if you love Mazda....
