Tom, If I liked madzas I'd be on a mazda list for a start. I freind owns a pretty fast Rx7 s1 20b pref ported or what ever it is with turbo intercooler and dail up in the console,Its fast bloody fast ,in fact when he got his last ticket it went right off the cops rader gun 300+Kph. But its not like a 1600 with power ,and the rx7 doesn't corner as well. The IRS puts the power down thats what the madza needed and they probley have it today just like most cars.
I dont like holdens either I owned a couple of oldie ones HR ute,HT,HQ,,shit pure shit.Grew out of those at 17. Fast holdens have ford diffs Fast fords go bang Any car with a M in the name is trouble(Madza,Mitis) NISSAN'S KEEP GOING. As for race cars,No I dont at this piont ,but will be classic club racing the 510SSS.
