I hope this gets into GT5 as DLC...

 

[Stotty]

I don't think GT5 needs another MX5... I think I have over 20 already!!

Nice car, but I assume it's track only?

yeah seems so:

Mazda is set to challenge Aston Martin, Porsche, Lotus, and BMW on the race track with its lightweight Mazda MX-5 GT entry in the Britcar MSA British Endurance Championship 2011.

Just saw this, awesome car! Wonder what all is done to the engine...

 

[Crash]

This car is going to be awesome, I can't wait to see what this can do.

Another 1.6-liter, right?

2.0 Liter.

does Mazda really believes this car really doesn't need a wing to compete with Aston Martin, Porsche, Lotus, and BMW?

 

[Crash]

Yes, because wings aren't always required for a car to be competitive.

Wonder what's in the engine... full Cosworth build, or bespoke parts?

They won't disclose that info for some reason. I would like to know too.

That thing must be an absolute blast to drive considering it only weighs 850kg!

I really dig the interior as well, and particularly the nicely sculpted Momo steering wheel.

Looks fantastic.
