Thread: Mazdaspeed got SPANKED!!!

I raced a newer turbo mazdaspeed yesterday. This guy was pulling that ricer crap with sneakin up behind me and then flyin by. Fortunetly, we got side by side at a red light. Light turns green and he slams it into first and takes me off the get but i ended up blowin right past him once i hit 100mph. Mazdaspeed 0, GTX 1 !

Speed3? Hmmmm...turbo's should own up top...but I know they have HORRIBLE torque management in the 1st-2nd gear.

Never liked the mazdaspeed cars, for how much they hype them up and how much they sell them for they're pretty slow.

^^ THAT...is wrong. Not the new ones. Both the Speed3 and Speed6 would put a hurting on a good handful of the cars here...STOCK.

Haven't looked at the new ones yet, they're pretty good?

They both use the MZR 2.3 liter turbocharged and intercooled 4 cylinder making 263hp and 280+ ft.lbs. of torque. MS3 is FWD and the MS6 is AWD. LOW 14's high 13's stock.

buddy had a mazdaspeed 6. ran a 14.3 at the track. was his first time EVER at a track 2.


raced a NEW mazdaspeed 3 hatch. was like a 20mph roll. he had me the whole time.

That's why you tune them and make 300+ FWHP ;D
