Tony - Do you still race Formula Mazdas ? I raced them and Formula Continental for years. The Formula Mazda is a great race car and probably the best bang for the buck out there
I Wish! You can buy one on eBay for about $10K. I hear there are still places which race them (and others in their class).
I drove one at the 4-day Bondurant class. The last day was in one of the little speed demons. They are fast, but also quick and nimble and I'd never felt as comfortable going fast ever.
I was going to do the 3-day advanced class this spring on the way to the Shelby 50th but canceled the class and the reunion since I didn't trust the weather and because I had a Grand Canyon trip lined up. In the advanced class I would have had 1 day in the Mazda, 1 day in the Corvette Z06 and then final day in my GT. The class was basically going to be me and an instructor, either in my car or on the track with me. I have since canceled the Grand Canyon and a friend wants to go down for the class too so we may later in the fall or next spring.
