Courage Mazda & Mazda/ALMS (merged threads)
The Courage Mazda is on its way to USA, and thanks to Laurent (and Claude Surmont) on Infocourse, we've got a pic of the beast :
http://www.infoscourse.org/2005_ALMS...rage_Mazda.jpg And there's a report in English on PlanetLeMans too... Last edited by Fab; 8 Apr 2005 at 11:26. Reason: Bandwdth |

In the article Laurent has posted on Infoscourse.org , at the bottom of the page is a link to a French television report featuring the Courage Mazda (on track), Yves Courage and Jonathan Cochet. Click on the link ('cliquez ici') then 19/20 Maine, Jeudi 07/04 and the report is just over 4 minutes into the news clip.
 (These are Laurent's instructions but the 19/20 Maine link didn't work for me. If you have the same problem, under 'info' in the left hand column of the page click on 'JT en video' and then 'Maine' in the second box down. Clear as mud?) Last edited by Bentley03; 8 Apr 2005 at 10:38. |

Works for me... nice sound, isn't it ?
And for Yves Courages : he says that despite the performances of the C60-H on a lap, it will be difficult against the Audis ("war devices" he says)... |

So is that a light reflector sticking out where the helmet of the driver will likely be?

Cool! Does anyone know any details on the 3-rotor "Renesis?" Will it retain the side intake ports? What are the regulations in LMP2 like? The article said they're targeting 400hp which is pretty conservative output from that kind of engine.

Jacek Mucha is probably the best known Mazda rotary racer in SCCA, and his car can cause physical pain when it goes by.
