Most recently, there was the Mazda Tuning Festa which was held at Tsukuba Circuit that attracted some famous rotary monsters. One of these is the infamous yellow Panspeed RX8! Photos via...

Been pretty busy the past couple of weekends with a few car events I wanted to get coverage for, but my favorite was definitely the C&C one year anniversary meet at Treasure Island.

Mazda's FD RX7 has always been one of my favorite Japanese sports car of all time. Despite the maintenance and the reliability issues of the car, I absolutely love the free-revving 13B along with one of the smoothest body lines in automotive history. However, as much as I like the smooth lines, I prefer an... Continue Reading →
