About the experience
The rotary powered multi-award winning Mazda RX-8 caused a storm of interest across the globe when it was launched. Universally acclaimed by the motoring press, the stunning four-door, four-seater sports coupe has real character.
In the same year Mazda launched a motorsport initiative with the RX-8, for an all-woman race series in 18 identically-prepared cars. The championship was broadcast on iTV and won by Natasha Firman, sister to former F1 racing driver Ralph Firman. Now you can have a chance to experience one of these race-prepared Mazda RX-8's on the fastest circuit in the UK.
The Mazda RX-8's at Thruxton are visually very similar to the road going version but have all the essential safety modifications needed for motor racing; stripped out with a roll cage, race seats, a four-point safety harness and fire extinguishers. Out on the circuit, the adrenaline flows as you propel the Mazda RX-8, with its twin-rotary 231ps engines, around the sweeping corners of the Thruxton circuit.
