Default Racing in a 4-Rotor



4-rotor Mazda RX-792P IMSA GTP car during practice

Qualifying Race

Not sure if the two vids are related, but damn they are bad ass. There are also some other great races including one at Tampa International Raceway. TIR is the Florida State Fairgrounds. Enjoy!

I had no idea there was a racetrack 10 miles from my house. That sucks horribly that it's gone. That looks pretty high speed, too.

Yeah, as much as the disappearing 1/4 tracks are talked about, road tracks have been suffering just as much in the last 30years. I am so fearful Sebring will grow too much and pass sound ordinances that puts the track out of business. Hell, I just about keeled over when they changed the hairpin to a safety pin. Oh well, I will quote Hans Stuck as introduced to me by treekiller, "So gone are the days when racing was dangerous and sex was safe."

Actual Quote
"When I raced a car last it was at a time when sex was safe and racing was dangerous. Now, it's the other way round." -Hans Stuck
