With the 24 Hour of Le Mans running today its a good day to post this. 

The 1974 24 Hour of Le Mans also saw the first attempt to qualify a Mazda Rotary Engine production vehicle, a 12A powered Mazda RX-3... but Claude Buchet failed to qualify for the 24 hours race that year.

At the 1975 24 of Hour of Le Mans, local French Mazda Dealer, Claude Buchet did qualify his RX-3 in 50th out of 55 entries, but retired around the half way mark of the race. This was his second attempt at the great race in a production based RX-3. Mazda was starting to make progress at Le Sarthe.

The 𝗠𝗮𝘇𝗱𝗮 𝗥𝗫𝟳 at the "Fast Cars Only" Hall of fame.

The second generation of the RX-7 ("FC"), still known as the Mazda Savanna RX-7 in Japan, featured a complete restyling much like similar sports cars of the era such as the Nissan 300ZX. It is also known as the FC3S, powered by the 13B rotary turbo charged engine.
