A few weeks ago, Scott drove to a giant Mazda Miata gathering at the infamous Laguna Seca race track. As he pulled his car up and parked, an older gentlemen came up to his car. Scott over heard the older gentlemen say to a fellow companion: "Oh, this car must be here for the car show!" Little did that man know just how wrong he was. He's
Because it's Motorsport Month here on Speedhunters, you may be asking why you are looking at a street FD RX7. I might struggle to justify this but, to me at least, this is a proper, realistic race car on the road. The highlights are 450BHP, full cage, single turbo conversion, bucket seats and harnesses. A lot of race inspired street cars are just
This is a car I've been meaning to feature for a while now. It was built by my friend Russ, the man behind the RE-Extreme blog, the place to go to for the latest news on anything and everything related to the RX7. Before Russ got rid of this, his second RE-Extreme project car, we met up in the Tokyo Bay ready to immortalize his very unique ride
As we got ready to start the Speedhunters coverage of Bonneville Speed Week I was silently hoping there was going to be a Japanese campaign at the event. The legendary Japanese tuning shop Jun Auto's Bonneville runs are now the stuff of legends, and I was praying we'd be able to find something similar to document at Speed Week. However, when
Darkness still blankets the world when you wake up and get out of bed. The minute that your toes touch the floor, you're wide awake. There's no sensation of grogginess or tiredness. As you wipe your eyes, the thought of how the rest of the world still sleeping at this very moment flashes through your mind. It makes you smile, and you quickly
The first time I spotted this car, I was out at Willow Springs with the yellow Nissan 370Z that I was test driving for my driving impression story on Speedhunters. There were a lot of Miatas at the track that day (obviously, because there was a Miata Challenge event happening at Streets), but in the sea of Miatas parked in the Streets of Willow pit
It's funny to think some Speedhunters readers were concerned that we had gone through our Mazda lineup of cars and forgotten about about Tony Angelo's RX8. Don't worry, we didn't. How could we forget? Everyone knows that Tony has been a devoted Mazda fan for a long time... does anyone remember his article in Wired Magazine that describes
Pit Crew? RS Aizawa? In Atlanta Georgia?! WHAT! Okay! (you have to read that part in Lil Jon's voice) It's hard for me to imagine I shot this car way back in 2005. After stumbling into it on the internet, I immediately made contact with the car's owner, Peter Brusa, because I knew I'd be going to Formula D in Atlanta, where the car lives
If you follow the Southern California drift scene at all, then it's likely that you know the name Justin Pawlak, aka JTP. Our boy Justin has been making waves in the media recently, as one of the most popular new drivers in the Formula D series; even ending the season strong with a podium finish at Irwindale this year. Before Justin ever became
In my opinion, the third generation RX7s look so good from the factory, it's kind of difficult to make them look better than stock. If you're a regular reader of Speedhunters, then you already know that the best way to improve the looks of any car is by improving the stance of the vehicle. It's a fact. Bruce Kress definitely agrees with
