Ride Along In A Nutso And Screaming Mazda RX-3 Road Racer In Jamaica As It Destroys The Competition

There are times when we see racing videos and it is clear that someone showed up with a nuclear tipped bazooka to a pistol fight and this is one of those videos but we’re not taking a shot at the racer who has this car, in fact the guy is our hero. This video was made at Dover Raceway in Jamaica and it shows a crazed RX-3 bodied road racing car with a really, really pissed off rotary engine hauling tail around the track and blowing everyone’s doors straight off. This is like a man fighting with boys because the Mazda is just so rip-roaring fast. The really good news is that the dude behind the wheel can drive tails off and he proves it more than a couple times running around the twisty Dover course.

The race track is a neat place. Opened in 1979 and measuring out to 1.4-miles, Dover Raceway has 12 turns and a couple of decent straights that allow really fast stuff like this RX-3 to wind up and get a big head of steam for the crowd. The track was built by a rich islander of Chinese descent named Alfred Chen who literally had it constructed in his backyard. Chen was killed in a helicopter crash in the year 2000, but the track continues to be a popular place for people to hang out and it is part of a couple different touring series in the Caribbean.

The field of cars in the video seems to include an Evo, what looks to be a heavily modified RX-8, an Audi, and a couple other newish foreign sedans, and of course this tube chassis, rocket ship of a Mazda RX-3. How cool is it that the oldest car in the field (by a ton!) hammers all of the new stuff into dust by the middle of the first lap? This may be a record for us because this is the second day in the row we have run a post featuring a rotary engine. The first one from yesterday was this monster 12-rotor piece and today’s features what we think is a three-rotor mill.

Cool track, cool car, spectacular performance!
