Mazdaspeed Protege5

Ever thought about adding a team car? It's already in team colours.

In reply to WondrousBread :

Entirely possible, it had been for sale for a while before I was able to purchase it in 2021.

In reply to Rons :

The thought had occured, but my budget barely keeps this car on track, nevermind a second one.

A few teasers of the new engine and some other upgrades

We did it!

We finished our first 8 hour endurance race this past Saturday. We were 6th in class, 20 laps behind the leader, and 11 laps behind 5th, but we still consider it a win. Unfortunately, a loose turbo (broken studs at the manifold) and some ignition issues led to us retiring after 2.5 hours on Sunday, but still a good weekend overall.

We got a featured in another magazine! https://issuu.com/motorwerksmagazine/docs/mwm_v14_01_publish/70?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR1BP34k2hdBFWCQ7P8QUds0U7ptIVuVUVJQ9VESqd5dhuPYqoqEAjwHfFU_aem_ZmFrZWR1bW15MTZieXRlcw

We also had our second race weekend at Calabogie Motorsports Park this past weekend. We were plagued by mechanical gremlins, but still made some good progress as a team, in spite of the less than ideal results. We also had a driver coach come out to show us what the car could really do. His first lap in the car was 3 seconds faster than any of us had ever done before, and he managed to get the car under 2:25, while maintaining that there was probably 2-3 seconds more in the car.

Congrats on the feature! Seems like a cool

magazine. I had never heard of it. 
 

Still love me some P5! Hope things go well this year.

Anyone interested in racing with us at Mosport/CTMP in a couple of weeks?

We're short a driver or 2 for July 20-21 at one of the best tracks in North America.

Don't forget there is a driver/team finder forum here.  Not sure how much traffic it sees but likely a better chance than in your (fantastic) build thread.
