MAZDA RX8

The Team purchased the Mazda RX8 in April 2012, and stripped the car entirely and rebuilt it from the ground up as a purpose built race car using high specification components throughout. It was specified to be eligible for Championships such as the Britcar Production and GT Championship, the 750MC Roadsports Championship, 750MC Club Enduro or the Nippon Challenge.

• Mazda Renesis 1.3 rotary, prepared by Rotary Revs, tuned and ported with upgraded ignition system, oil cooling, lightweight flywheel and ceramic race clutch
• Motec SDL3 logging system
• Lightweight stainless steel race exhaust system
• Lightweight polycarbonate windows
• 120 litre fuel tank with ATL dry break fuelling (as an option)
• High downforce aero kit including front splitter, diffuser and rear wing (as an option)
• AP brakes
• High power HID headlights with auxiliary LED high power spotlights (as an option)
• Adjustable dampers and upgraded suspension
