Hitting the rev limiter on almost every gear shift... what a treat from such a legend! Mad Mike, one of the very few that are keeping the Mazda spirit alive!
Bashing that limiter like its a red headed step son 🤣 Bit of time left on the table too
In Japan and Australia it's still alive and always will be 🏁
Means he could drive even quicker. Hitting the limiter means no power for fraction of a second
thats a rotary thing, they get smoother the higher you rev them. Its hard to shift by feel because you don't get the feedback from vibration or power falling off as much, especially on the PP motors.
Kiwis can fly Kia ora
That shot at the finish line with the rear wheel hoping in the air 😬 Mad respect!
Wow, what a production. I didn't want this video to end either. The sound track gave me shivers and the cinematography needs to win awards. Mike is such a real person, doing unreal things. This makes it feel like you are on the journey with him.
Means a lot to the team that worked on it. Cheers!!
As a Huge Mazda supporter, I'm always happy with their achievements, 1400 rotary, twice the power of the 787b, man that is impressive and scary at the same time, congratulations mate, I hope you keep pushing Mazdas to their limits, and not only Rotaries, all Mazdas.
Better coverage then the actual event. Get to see more than 5% of the course. Good shit
You didn't like watching 2 people talk to each other?
Massive congratulations Mike! You’ve come so far in your career from putting everything on the line building the og rx7 to now holding 2 records at Pikes Peak! Huge respect for you brother, showing everyone how hard work and dedication does pay off 🤙
From an Aussie ~ Go you mad Kiwis! That's awesome!
I love how you see the finish from inside the car, and it looks a bit wild and crazy, but no real indication of why, but then you play the outside, and the suspension has wound up and the car is crossed up and the dynamics are in a different state, and the back wheels are two inches off the ground, and suddenly that rather frantic view from inside makes all the sense in the world. That was seriously hairy!
Well said bro!
Mad Mike, best Ambassador for MAZDA 🇯🇵 flying the Flags High 🇭🇲 😃👌👍🏆
Wrong flag brother 🤘🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
So many people now copying using a turbo or na 4 rotor
What's Australia gpt to do with this it's a New Zealand and Japan colab.
@@josephpsmithewhat are you talking about.
@@alastairdow4400well for starters Haltech and Plazmaman, two of the sponsors and parts suppliers, are Aussie companies…
It was a pleasure racing with you this year!
Finish line shot got us like 😬👀 Congrats to Mad Mike and the team!
In an ex uk mandate mechanic I've always loved the rotary engine ,and to put 4 into a mazda 3 and race it up pikes peak has put a huge smile on my face ....well done truly well done 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Epic result from the Rotary Legend Mad Mike. Well done
I love that they used a 3 for their platform. Such a sleek looking hatch...one of the best hatch designs of all time, IMO.
Yes yes yes!!!!
Such a humble and respectful legend you are,
Good luck 💙
I find it to be very difficult to judge speed and force in a video, but I think that fact that at 10:26 you can see that the air bubble in the tank of the hydraulic handbrake is basically at the front, rather than the top.
I still can't imagine what it must have felt like, but holy moly...
Congratulations to Mad Mike and the team behind the rotary, great video and massive respect for getting out of your comfort zone and attempting and crushing Pikes Peak, hope to see you back next year in under 10 minutes.
Hope to see this car in New Zealand 🇳🇿 one day! congratulations to you #madmike & tpm. you guys rock!🤘✌️
Awesome meeting you and racing with you that month! Epic accomplishment. 🤙
Whiddett keeping the legendary spirit of Mazda alive. LEGEND!
Absolutely! 🤘😎
Wow this is what you were talking about when we met you at Hampton Downs. Congrats on the records, proud to be Kiwi and thanks heaps for talking with my grandson and for letting us take the photos of you and him. He races your cars in his sim sessions. Thanks again. 💯🙂
What a treat for you and the fans alike. Great car concept and awesome run dude. Stoked for you and the team, so sick to see and hear a Mazda ripping it up the hill with the scream of 10,000 wasps (787B style) with a big turbo whistle too! Can't wait to see what you guys come up with for your next project. Cheers
808 on a line locker and a massive dream now smashing them every year better & better congrats bro to you your team & everyone behind the scenes 🇳🇿🇯🇵🇳🇿🇯🇵🇳🇿🇯🇵
Honestly, Kiwis are the most down to earth people on this planet (I am, obviously, Australian). They always remind me of what Aussies were like about 50 years ago. What a great effort, and from someone I see has no special prominence in car racing. Nice one!
0:02 Love the Saab in the background
This is Awesome! Kiwis can fly!! Brilliant on board cameras and love the high revs.
Wow, what a strong finish. Well done Sir!
Any chance you can put the whole run onboard from your helmet cam, best ASMR. Solid effort, the atmosphere is a killer up there
So cool to see another kiwi on top of the world, he’s given everything over the years so cool to see it all paying off big thanks to all his team and everyone that makes it all happen
So glad for you and to see a current model Mazda 3 as a wild rotary powered rear wheel drive racing car! Amazing feat to all involved and those driving skilz 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have to watch it again now 🔥
Wonderfully produced piece, that I didn’t want to end!
Fantastic driving! That car looks hairy. I’ve also never heard something smack the limiter so many times!
Loved you heal and toe to keep the turbo spooling up. Congratz Mike and all Mazda team! Nice clean run!
So this is what a four rotar that works looks like. Great work.
what a sick video, ill never get sick of that sound. your a mad man
this makes me miss Ken. RIP Ken. Amazing run Mike!
I'm not being facetious when I say I teared up
That car is bonkers and so are you
In my opinion the Mazda 3 (BP 2019-2023) is the coolest looking hatch ever made and I hope that these records inspire more people to do crazy RWD conversions like this. Or even Mazda themselves putting out an actual hot hatch version (the AWD Turbo that the states got is cool, but not quite hot hatch material).
Mad Mike representing the 4 rotor!!! 🙂
Bravo guys!
Along with many others i have watched Mikes progression over the years, he is totally deserved of his World Record success at Pikes Peak i tip my hat to him, his team, Mazda & the sponsors!
Well done!
You might not remember me but I met you back in 2016 during FD Seattle at Evergreen speedway. You were all geared up, sitting in the Miata, getting into the groove. Been a fan of yours since 2011 or 2012, and I got my first car, a 1991 Mazda RX7 Convertible because of my love for your n/a 4 rotor FD RX7. Also got a $340 rotary tattoo because of my car, and you.
Maybe one day I'll get to properly introduce myself to you, and shake your hand!
Thats a helluva first run! I want to see you make some more records!
Damn this thing is fast, still heaps left aswell. Sick video!
wow he has to press the clutch on every gear shift, that is so cool and kinda old school.
Flat shift cut felt unnatural and I was faster doing it myself 😂👌🏽
@@madmike.123 thank you so much for answering, you are a legend and you're doing gods work with those rotaries 👍
@@madmike.123hey Mike ,how are You?
Respect man, brand new car in a totally different racing discipline you did soo well. Its not the drive there is a psychological aspect to it like you say wake up at 2am racing at 5:15am wtf 😅
Wow love that you are getting into Pikes peak man
Mad Mike you are a Legend in your own right. Thanks for making me part of your world with all the exceptional footage and great camera angles, behind the scenes footage, and just the way you drive mate! Please put a sticker on the back that says: "Drive it like you stole it...." I will always treasure my little 1976 Mazda F1000 ute. I drive it everyday. Congratulations Mad Mike. You and the team deserve it mate 🤝🏻🏁🎌
Thanks Mad Mike, that's not just a regular race you did there, that's a tribute to all of us petrolheads out there.
And thanks again for existing and for all you've been giving us.
you are the real beast mike❤️🔥🤟
LIVING LEGEND!
*_The video we all needed 🔥_*
sheeesh shes bumpy up there boy!! amazing work as always mike! keep the videos coming bro, loving it ❤🔥🔥🔥
Well Done my brother, well deserved. Hard work pays off no matter the time.🤘🤘
Memories and achievements that will last you a lifetime. May you have many more days like this one.
Huge congrats, and very impressive!
A big CONGRATULATIONS Mike and crew much love and respect from Auckland New Zealand brother
without you the mazda heritage would have disappeared and many like me love the rotary engine thanks to you still remember madbul in 2009 when I see where you are today. Congratulations
That was a very nice run up Pikes Peak
Insane Mazda Mike !! ❤❤
That looked like a handful up the top . good on you guys..
Thank you so much for posting this bro much love
Big up Mike and the whole team that made it possible 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Man how lucky is Mazda Japan to have a guy like Mike? Seriously the dude is a class act, super friendly, absolutely LOVES all cars but he chooses Mazda because they really do suit his driving style. I know so many people who have rotary cars and they don't belong in them. They lug the thing around and foul plugs, don't run a return line and WAAAY more pump and injector that you'll ever think you need. The fact is, you DO need that much fuel in a rotary. They're so difficult to tune if all you've ever tuned in ur life is piston engines man. I'm a tuner at the only shop with an all wheel drive dyno in Reno Nevada. The difference is literally night and day. On the mapping where a piston engine would like to be leaned up a bit, rotaries want ALL the fuel and visa versa. Literally if you understand haltechs fuel chart layout and looked at let's say a 20b side by side with a turbo k20 you'd be like.....what the FUUUUUUCK!?!?!? No bullshit a 20b burns more fuel than my single turbo and fuckin BUILT 2v 4.6 mod motor. Yes, Im the one man in the world who owns a 1998 mustang gt and kept the factory engine. Because 2v 4.6 are the most underrated engine there is. Period. A SOHC V8 with a block and head castings that robust just don't exist in any other platform. My car had 181,000 miles when I pulled it apart. I did a simple knockdown job on the heads, did trick flow stage 5 cams, titanium valves, springs, retainers, keepers, titanium rods, diamond billet pistons, had the stock crank blueprinted, balanced up to 12,000 rpm, lightened, and polished to a literal mirror shine. That well over 200,000 mile stock crank, block, and head castings have held 1100hp for almost 5 years. I did a dingleberry hone on the block. I'm dead fuckin serious this isn't bullshit I swear to God. I know they're a difficult engine to fit into some cars. But it's nowhere near as big as a coyote and you can find them for $600. I ran mine bone stock with a 78mm precision turbo for 2 years. It was still running exceptionally the only reason I did the build is because I won $37,000 playing roulette in Vegas. I had won $6,600 playing blackjack, then walked by a roulette table and looked at my girl. Shes like "Out half of it on 17 black I have a feeling right now." I shit you not it fuckin dropped on 17 black. Oh boy did I give her the best night of sex shes ever had in her entire life. She was still snoring when the maids came by at noon, hahahahaha!! Anyway, BUILD A 2V 4.6!!!!
Awesome car and an awesome driver. I didn't think a Mazda 3 could ever look that aggressive.
Nothing better than hittin your zenith in any sport! The rush is irreplaceable. Had that rush of 4 different experiences, and they were all stellar! Car's wasn't one of them, but this stuff you can't explain.
The flying KIWI how are them rotaries frickin awesome
Bravo Mike.
Bravo Team Mazda for keeping the rotary engine alive.
Mike actually doing well grip racing is WILD.
He's a wheelman. Watched him jump into gt3s at Hampton downs years ago and he was running up the front
Love to see you back in the channel Mike !!! I missed you !!! Keep it always flat bro!! Much love!
❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Music to my ears ❤
How cool to see Mazda support, going to see more racing from them, they make great cars
Sideways and air over the finish line. Quality Mad Mike.
Amazing performance
Hats off to Mike this is an impressive feat at all levels especially with his driving style 🫣
Great to see you back wringing the rotary's neck! Congrats Mike 👏
The mantis mike congrats on your achievements team work makes the dream work respect👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
Congrars Mike!!! Literly brapping all the way to the top and making us rotor heads proud. Brap on brother.
Love how you keep hitting the rev limit...always a great sounding car....
I wonder if this car will run a 56sec at Tsukuba?
congrats on the record. i miss my mazda 3 mps BK that i had for a while. it was mad quick and so much fun.
Well done well done, kudos & salute 🤚
what a crazy run, pushing the car on the edge of the limit, that 3 sounds great!!!, also 12:04, you can see how the sound delayed from that far distance
The funny thing is that, when you put the sub-titles on, and there's the engine sound, it says: "foreign music" ! lol! Godess speed!
I see the hydro, this thing is gonna be wild to slide!
haha the back of the car over the finish!! Loooooose! I love it
Was awesome to see you up there .... I almost talked to you after the race, but u were filming with your team ....(I volunteer for the race) hope to see you up there next year !!! And Robin shute is a beast!!!
Well done Mike fanfarkingtastic sounds and views, awesome work from the team. Now we need to see you drift Pikes Peak in that beast (aka Crown Range style).
Brother - you guys shoul definitely bring this thing to super lap battle in austin. Def get you some more grip seat time! This was siiiiick
And they said Rotaries don't make torque 🤫
Chur bro massive congrats to you and the team
Car Sounds Amazing 💯
Hey Mike you’re extremely exceptional, you’re the best, you’re the greatest of all time, you’re car isn’t just a car, it’s a ultimate machine, however I’m using this opportunity to wish you and your devoted and dedicated team all best of luck, brother Mike good job keep on doing what you’re doing, we appreciate you.

It's always impressive, an attempt at Pykes Peak!
Amazing video and camera angles, would be so cool to see telemetry at the same time?
来年も楽しみにしてるぜ！👍
