Honda makes me proud once again! I love the S2000 and even the Integra shines. It's a shame though 'cause the Rx-8 is kinda cool too...

I can't believe how slow the RX8 was. I don't see why anyone would buy one over the WRX sti or lancer evo-and this is coming from a rotary fanatic.

considering the weight of the G35, second place is great! I think I will buy this car in case the Mitsubishi I want is not found.

In the race there was a white car similar to an S2000, was it an Miata???

As for the RX8 it didn't perform well in the race cause its not modified, in a previous video an A-Spec RX8 kicked ass.... But Im not a Mazda fan...

The RX-8 is slower than evos and so on, but it is way cheaper and it is a 4 seater, which makes it much more useful than the S2000

I would like to see what the 2.2l S2000 would do against the 2.0l S2000. The 2.2 is faster in acceleration, but can only pull a .89 g's. The old S2000 could pull .92 g's.

RX8 has the best handling, this is only one race, watch the other BM races with RX8 in it. besides this is not the mazdaspeed or the turbo version yet

the dealers here are buying the RX-8 back from their customers, since their statement about the HP was different than the ones that they published

rx8 might be slower straight line..but is by no means slow on the track...on top gear the rx8, 350z and e46m3 all pulled same track times

remember not everyone on BM has same caliber driving capabilities...gan-san and tschuia (sp?) are the main people that can rip apart the cars
