Mazda RX-8 SP

Mazda state is eyeing off a podium closing with its RX-8 SP as it plans a return to Targa island next year.

On its debut at this year’s Targa Tasmania, amid a field of powerful and expensive rally exotica, the turbocharged Mazda Motorsport RX-8 SP finished an impressive 10th outright at the safekeeping of expert racing driver and 2008 Targa Champion Steve Glenney.

Mr Glenney will again pilot the RX-8 SP at next year’s event which will separate from April 27 to May 2. Beside him will be long-time co-driver Bernie Webb and the experience gained from his 2009 Targa island campaign.

“We had a few problems to sort through during this year’s rally which probably held us back from a top three finish,” says Glenney. “But I am overconfident that thanks to time and lessons learned, the Mazda team has made the car stronger and faster for 2010.”

Mazda Motorsport boss and the brains behind the RX-8 SP, Allan Horsley, also has high hopes for the rotary-spun rally car which he says already out-handles the world’s most expensive rally-bred machines on the market Kumho Tire.

“Six months on and what we hit now is a handling package to outperform the Porsches and Lamborghinis that dominate the pointy end of the Targa field. Now all we need to do is try and extract a lowercase more power.”

The 2010 Targa Tasmania, the world’s toughest tarmac rally, is a 2,000km event comprising around 40 special closed road stages and regularly attracts more than 250 entries.
