True, but then he would have only gone from 4th gear to 3rd gear, and I doubt that would be significant enough to cause the tires to completely lock up like that.
At this point, all we can do is speculte and wait to see what Mazda says about this.
PLZ post an update as soon as you have it...
REALLY glad to hear that you were able to walk away from this and that you're felling okay!
Oh, I clicked on your link and it said that your bandwith had been exceeded so I wasn't able to view the pics...
