yea the stock suspension looks to like it holds back for the drifter.

wait.. so most of you bought your RX-8 so you could sit on your porch and look at it? maybe drive it like a little camry on the way to work?

I bought mine cuz I want to DRIVE it. If I wanted something good to look at, I am sure there are better things i can do with $30K

That's awesome... looked a little like my autocross a couple weeks ago : ). It's a good thing Falken is a sponsor- that's a fun way to finish off a set of tires!

I catch a tire or a donut every-now-and-then but the bumber fell off! shows he cares, after all when it fell off he didnt do anything. If mine did, i would be crying and wouldnt be able to move. just the thought of it happening to me makes me cry

When you race your car, stuff breaks.

I doubt it was his car anyway.

Off topic- but I have to ask this - what's the deal with so many people saying 'bumber' instead of 'bumper'?? It can't be a typo- the letters are no where near each other on the keyboard. And it's not just you - I've seen this at least 30 or 40 times on this board... is it some new word you kids are using??

Ummm, well, let me put it this way, they pass kids in school all the time who cannot write or spell worth crap. 'Nuff said about that.

Do you know what I heard they are going to do with all of the Mazdas at the end of the Rev it Ups? I cannot confirm this but I heard it from a reliable source, they are going to junk everyone of them. None will have any warranty so no one will buy them anyway. I think that kind of sucks myself. At least they could be good for parts, with the exception of that bumber...oops, bumper. LOL :D

You got that right. I would imagine that Mazda would give their employees a shot at the cars. I sure would love a dedicated autocrosser at a deep discount : ).

The one thing about that guy is that he must have the money to repair it. I think two rear tyres costs more than the repair of his bumper. So enjoy it buddy.

i think everybody is forgetting that its probably not his car. its a mazda rev it up event its meant to promote mazda.

everybody makes mistakes once in a while......in drifting its expected due to the nature of the style of driving.
