Take to the grid and grin. Nothing can beat a #MX5 track day

I know one member who will not Take to the grid and grin, Paul Roddison, have a look at my recent post and threads

https://www.mx5oc.co.uk/forum/yaf_postst101157_The-first-Mk4-built-for-racing-now-up-for-sale.aspx

His MK4 race car was on display at Hope Motor Show with its FOURTH Gearbox in it.

Come on MAZDA do you want us to use them on track or not??? If you do then let’s have some support!!!

Facebook? Mmmm. Tried it for about a week and got so many spurious friend requests from people I don’t know and don’t want to know so I ditched it. Far prefer making friends on this forum.

I do hope that those that can have asked pertinent questions of them which will be visible to all. I would suggest the following for a start -

  1. Will you be bringing a truck load of spare gearboxes?

  2. Will you be making participants aware that their warranties are void as soon as they go on track?

Sure you can think of plenty more.

 

Trackdays are normal use for a sports car so should be covered by warranty. Racing is a different matter I guess.

That’s exactly what I would have thought but when Rodders raised the matter the response he got was -

mazda UK will NOT give any warranty on ANY car be it race or trackday car that is used on track.
