Hi
Anyone else watch \'Ten of the best\' on Men and Motors tonight?
I saw a couple of rex\'s,Re:works red one got a mention,and was shown
on it\'s high speed run.There was also a silver fd with black centred rims
shown burning off the start line.
Apart from those two no other mazda\'s at all.
Does anyone know if they were the only Mazda\'s there that day?
Anyone planning on entering this year?
Cheers
Pete

Rich had a red one IIRC, I suppose it was that one, had no idea it was TOTB fast

Hi
Neither of the rx\'s got into the top four,which was a real shame.
Where were all our big BHP boys,Dragon,Hayward and the privateers?
Couldn\'t see number plates on the either rx\'s so unsure if the Re:works
car had had a respray.I know the grey n orange one you mentioned,not sure
if it used to be red.
Hope there\'s more of us there this year.

More bits,what you got planned?
Saving and scrapping everything together myself,my car is
still down at Dragon\'s,the bill is going to be huge!!!
Then she\'s going to the spray shop!! She\'ll be ready for the show
season then.

Hayward Rotary were there at that time in that the engine in the ReWorx car was built for the car by Hayward Rotary.
It was a bridgeport engine.
The car has progressed dramatically since then with Geff building his own engines.

Geff and ReWorx have already ran a nine with the car which is all their own excellent work and development.
Something for the rest of us to aspire too.

Hi Carl
Thankyou for the info again,but on a regular basis our Rx\'s need to faster,and more capeable! We need to take the fight to the skylines n supra\'s in the rwd classes.
Dragon and Re:works have shown us the way forward,but we all want to compete and win down to our own beliefs.
Show and guide our ways
Cheers
