- On August 09 2018 I travelled with a couple friends 800 km to get to the famous Nurburgring Nordschleife circuit. Due to weather conditions we only made three laps but it was more than enough to enjoy the track and the amazing experience it provides. This footage is about the third lap where I tried to push the car a bit, still lifting the throttle pedal on main straights due to lack of confidence. I am sure that with a couple of laps more I could've improved much.
Let me know what you guys think and sorry for bad swearing in italian. Adrenaline side effects :)
Whatch my other videos for more about the car and on tours my friends and I made
I've always dreamed of running that course with my RX8 but I never thought it would happen, but somehow I feel I have run it now. Thanks for the experience and I loved listening to that rotary sing. In my opinion the best handling car I've ever driven...
Yep I've tried many cars and the rx8 is really the queen in terms of driving pleasure and handling. Glad you enjoyed the ride!
Why aint u red-lining dude. I dont hear the ping, lol.
Very cool video man! 🤙
I'm very jealous because my chances of being able to drive the 'ring are slim to none.
Thanks for sharing your moment with us, and leave the haters behind.
すばらしいドライビングです 見とれました! Nice driving!!
Felt like I was there… great vid
why was the CEL on? and airbag light? Turn traction off >O
Wow amazing!! How many wheels?
55 mate!
Dude It felt like I was there thank you
Thank you for show us a lap of Nurburgring in yr rx-8... won't get to drive my GT4 around this place (don't live in europe) ... don't bother about the other viewers commenting on your driving ... we all start somewhere ... most important thing is you enjoy yourself and the experience ... everyone will get better if they try and try again
Thank you! Honestly I don't care about bad comments, on the field, in real life, it looked way faster and intense that in the video. It was my first time at the ring for me, some parts of the circuit were wet... I am satisfied with my lap! There is a lot of improvement to be done but...
Lovely sound, quite good driving for the first time. Don't let jealous "picnic" haters fool you. Saluti :)
Thank you, yeah there's always who does better from the keyboard! Btw it looks a lot slower in camera than it felt back in the day!
Wow amazing driving!! How many hp?
PIROCAY 235 crank
le bestemmie bisognava lasciarle 😂😂 bravissimo si vede che frequenti le piste
Very nice! It's such a joy to drive on the Nordschleife! :D
Definitely! 😁
Complimenti
Bel video, bella guida!
Very respectible 9.45 BTG time....not to be sniffed at .
Have the same car.....with a little work they can really work the corners......not a real powerhouse but with a streetport they come alive.....it's easy to forget that they are only a 1.3litre too......nice drive
I can’t imagine doing this track without power steering
The 8 has electric power steering.
@@davidedgar7338 yes it does
@@adrian15419 my electric module offline at min. Filter gone I suspect. Car sat for a bit. I need to look into this. Had to have super human strength to park it. Fitting new omp pump. Old one failed mot on hydrocarbon emissions. Too much oil injected. I like what I see on it engineering wise.. it's cool. Unfortunately I been trying to fix my bones and lung after I was passenger in car crash. I feel I need to get it done now.
@@davidedgar7338 Mazda makes a wonderful feeling electric steering across all their models with them, that I've driven, I would have almost sworn it was a smoothed out hydraulic system the first time I experienced a few, especially compared to most other manufacturers electronic steering systems.
Why are the specks
Engine specs?
@@Berry29tm is the engine stock
No it has a 3" exhaust decat and Ecu tune. But one spark plug was disconnected at the time of this video.
@@Berry29tm wow that car runs and songs great my Dad and I owns a 2005 rx8 here in the country Barbados which i in the Caribbean ,it's
automatic but I love the way it drive is stock I'm thinking of going with a 3" exhaust thanks to you. Lol the rx8 value in my country is very high my 2005 has a street value of 26,000 BDS dollars which is 13000 us .2010 model value over 60,000 BDS or 30,000 us but are sold around 20,000us dollars /40,000 BDS
Enjoy you handle yourself on track well love the channel
Take dear care of yourself stay safe hope to see move content of yours soon
GOD bless
no redline :X
3:41 that gear grinde my rx8 dose the same thing lol
It got so bad in time that i had ti swap the whole gearbox
@@Berry29tmlol when i pulled the drain plug on my trans there was a ball from a ball baring stock to the magnet😂
Cosmo? The acceleration is not very well
I had one wire disconnected form the spark plug. Noticed it when I came back home 😱
Leading or trailing? guessing trailing
@@Dagcor1 Yup trailing!
Severely under powered cars...but it appears to handle well yes...Mazda should have sold it with a 3 rotor engine from the very beginning making it a clean emissions 20B Rensis engine if you will...cause it sounds more performance oriented and offers more power and torque and then put a dct transmission with paddle shift in later updated models but still keeping the manual option....Nice car the rx-8...It just needed much more HP and Torque
Sounds good but the wankel is slow
Should have saved your money & just gone on the autobahn - that wasn't racing - it was a Sunday afternoon drive through the forest - did you take a blanket & a picnic with you - my RX8 ( 261 bhp) & uprated brakes, suspension would've torn you apart & once I hit 5000rpm - the bloody thing comes alive
big whoop, he's obviously just on a day out having fun, it wasnt a time trial but a tourist track day and if he enjoyed himself that's a goal achieved, nobody wants to hear you talk shit and boast about how much faster you are.
We dont care about your doritos...blablabla...you have an rx8 260 hps...sooooo???let us see the video and dont jealous...you brake are balls.
who spends that much money on an rx8
pls elaborate on how you managed to get 260hp from a renesis. Is it turboed? Is that 260 at the crank or at the wheel? Never heard of anyone getting 260hp, even at the crank out of a renesis without turboing and if you have a turbo on it, it's probably already dead. Or did you just pull that 260 number out of your ass? Get the fuck out of here with your elitist bullshit
@@yado7550 theres enty of videos with a renesis making well over 300 n/a
very bad driving,,,,you are missing the chrones,,,,very bad
Very bad English!
