I like the looks with those slicks !!

But what am I reading? Moving again? Why ?

wow i LOVE the racing pics i cant wait till i get to autocross
was this your first time driving with racing slicks?

and yeah like i said before bro the Bronze and primer is pretty hot but a powder coated white is nice idea that i think would look good too.

also on the shift boot thing tuck a little of the boot inward and just zip tie the boot from the inside tight to the shifter...thats what i did and it looks great

I forget which pic but yeah one of those I've driven on them at 4 events now for a total of about 25 runs.

are they really that sticky or could you not notice the difference with all the suspension upgrades

also for the MS-01S's have you decided on a tire size choice?...slicks or street?

Oh it is a huge difference. The tires just compliment all of the suspension stuff I have done. Probably gaining close to 2 seconds on all my runs compared to street tires.

I'm thinking of either getting a wet r-compound set of slicks or another set of Direzza's just so I can roll on the MS-01S wheels now! They look so sick and I'll be able to use the center caps right away

I might get a set of slicks for the MS-01's but thats not till i swap out and get a DE and supercharge then its off to the track
yeah the MS-01S's are a favorite wheel of mine. im glad someone on the forum didnt pass up the opportunity (so many people pass on great opportunity for some reason here) . I would of got them but i may buy some MS-01R's with caps from rupe then sell the MS-01R's and keep the caps and my wife already thinks i have way to many rims around the house as it is...

Thanks to Josh (and his wife) for snapping these in motion pics while we were driving back from the Leavenworth meet as well as a few pics from the meet.















And a couple pics outside the Race Cars new home and a random old pic from last year...

lookin good as always. the magnets kind of ruin the beautiful shots imo, but it would be easy to photoshop them out

yeah the photos are pretty grand!!! i love the angles and how well the camera takes pics they make me want that hood even more!

I think the magnets add to its epicness. Bought the camera last christmas for the lady, really because I spend too much on my cars and needed to even it out BUT I think they turned out really well. Next time we will have to stop somewhere and have a mini photo shoot.

Mark, whats going on?

2 months no update ? I'm not used to that

I think he is building anticipation for a full unvaile at CorkSport on the 11th

I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!!! dude your car makes me soooooooo mad. I just look in my driveway, then scope your work log, then look at my driveway lol the envy sucks. i went thru you worklog like a book...and i couldnt put it down. GREAT job with the car, you now have given me something to push for. The facebook magnet is awesome and i love the fact that you are pushing for as mazda as possible. Funny i had the same thoughts as soon as i purchased my mx3...before i even got on the site. Youve got to let me know how you come accross some of this ms stuff. Keep up the good work
