So apparently Mazda has decided that the RX-8 is now a drift car...
So I decided to see if WA's 06 RX-8 inventory ever changes (looking for a MT base, but the inventory never changes!?) and lo and behold...

... RX-8 Drifting game. Drift the streets of Tokyo! (WTF?!)
"RX-8 Drift Battle RC"
Now we can't complain about the lack of "adverstising" since the release of Tokyo Drift and the spin off launch of this mini game.
I guess any PR is good PR??
This summer has offically kicked off to a great start!!

Oh yeah I love the exact reference (although horribly pixelated) to the blue RX-8 from Tokyo Drift. LOL!!
And yes the game is just plain hard unless you really want to master it.
I'd rather go play PGR3 on the 360 (why no rotary!?! arggg...).
Now did Mazda internally really waste their time on this app or did they outsource it... and for how much?

Drifting is done by 'left click' on a mouse, so for us you can control speed & steering by 'hovering' the pen to control the dot, and then touch the screen while steering to create the 'left-click' to drift.
