MAzda RX-8--Rolex Sports Cars Series--Mexico 250


http://www.grand-am.com/rolex/schedule/results.cfm

Speedsource RX-8 is in 21st position (3rd in the GT Class). Anyone wanna get some bets going?

Pole position for GT class: Porsche GT3 (hope it doesn't crash into the 8)

Second place position: Pontiac GPX (LS powered)

Apparently the #21 Pontiac took out the black 8.




Quote:
SPEEDSOURCE (Emil Assentato, Jeff Segal – No. 69 Mazda RX-8; Sylvain Tremblay, Nick Ham – No. 70 Mazda RX-8) – The SpeedSource team has a lot of momentum on its side heading into the Mexico City 250 at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. The team is the defending race winner in the GT class (Sylvain Tremblay and Nick Ham), and Tremblay and Ham were joined by David Haskell and Raphael Matos in the team’s Rolex 24 At Daytona GT win in January. Only one point out of the driver and team point lead, a victory will put the No. 70 and its drivers back on top. And, in case the team doesn’t have enough momentum, its No. 69 and drivers Emil Assentato and Jeff Segal have top-10 GT finishes in both races in 2008, and Assentato co-piloted the No. 69 to a third-place finish at Mexico City last season.

LAST SERIES POLE POSITION: January 25, 2008 – Daytona International Speedway (GT; No. 70)

LAST SERIES RACE VICTORY: January 27, 2008 – Daytona International Speedway (GT; No. 70)

I watched a few minutes of the race when it was aired (re-aired) on SPEEDTV, yesterday. I'm still not a fan of the 8's but they are growing on me everyday.
Aren't all these 8's running R20Bs? I wonder when they will produce a limited-edition Mazdaspeed version with a Renesis 20B. That would be a respectable sportscar (even with the the 2 +2 1/2 doors.

The Dempseymobile as we nicknamed it for the race. He wasn't there this time though, we did get to meet him last year at GT Live when he bought a seat from ROAR Racing. Guess when your main sponsor drops you for NASCAR you do what ya got to do to get money to run the series.
