Dear Tony Angelo,

Thank you for copying my car's scheme that i have been running for about a year now in the local drift circuit. You must have seen some of my stuff on the web and really liked it, thats cool! Looking forward to seeing it at FD Atlanta

btw, thread read- sarcasim

soultron · 04-10-2007, 10:03 AM

He makes a good point however.

DropTopDrifter · 04-10-2007, 10:20 AM

Buy seriously, i think its cool to see more rotary getting into it. I did the heritage scheme on my car because im a die-hard Mazda owner and well know what the scheme means. I really am looking forward to seeing that car though. I just hope people dont think i copied that car when its finally made public

There are a lot of Mazda fans that know the scheme, but i dunno how many people in the drifting scene are up on their Le Mans history and older road racing in general. I can at least say i was the first Mazda with that scheme in the drifting community

Congrats Tony on the new car.....

scissor doors + perforated graphics = sweet

the white dashes just need that scissor logo thing "cut here"

Why doesn't anyone run the American Mazda heritage colors of Blue, Dark Blue, and White that were taken to so many IMSA GTU championships?

soultron · 04-11-2007, 05:46 PM

Yet another good point. It even looks better.

Brian · 04-11-2007, 05:50 PM

^^^^
because those colors are ugly and boring and nobody would care to even talk about it, unless they were making fun of it.

DropTopDrifter · 04-12-2007, 06:37 AM

they are kinda bland... and my car was already green

Doesnt the apexi FD have a design similar to those... and I could have sworn BN sports had a FC with the green and orange scheme

akuma S14 · 04-12-2007, 01:21 PM

B Harte for the win!

Blaze- there was an Fc painted like that. I'll try to find some pics.

Brian · 04-12-2007, 02:20 PM

Let me clarify

Mazda 787B - green and orange is a winner.

That boring Mazda white and blue - Let me fall asleep and then die because that would be better than looking at that scheme.

Drift Alliance · 04-12-2007, 10:14 PM

Yeah, there was already an FC and an FD that were D1 cars painted in this scheme, i thought it would be cool to see an Rx-8 done up the same way. The car is awesome, and Mazda has been really supportive about the build up, its in the body shop now, and paint will be done pretty soon.... scissor doors,,,,,hmmmm?!

Mike Peters · 04-12-2007, 10:54 PM

true respect to the original = scissor doors

:removes hat and puts hand over heart:

Might as well since it's already at the body shop

What do they always say? "If you break something, that just means it's time to upgrade"
