Mazda RX-7 Autocrossing With a 20B Motor
Here’s another vehicle I wasn’t able to learn very much about – Beth’s 3rd generation Mazda RX-7 with a 20B motor (that’s 3 rotors, folks!).
Beth felt more secure driving fast, than talking to me about her car. She mentioned that I could find all sort of specific details of her Mazda at: sevenpants.com, under “Strelnick’s car”. Sorry Beth, that site doesn’t compute…
My bad – as corrected from the helpful comment below from Dan, the website is:

Apparently this is a championship winning car that Erik has enjoyed. Unfortunately he was not able to accompany Beth at this SPOKES autocross event.
This is a dramatic car. I think Beth drove it to this event. It almost doesn’t look street legal, but I’m sure it is.
The Hoosier tire & wheel combo…they seemed to do the grip & stick job just fine.
The graphics on this car are interesting & I’m sure they have many stories. Hopefully I can hook up with Erik and get more information at future event.
It was thrilling to watch Beth fly through the course. That 3 rotor, 20B engine sang very sweetly under her control.
Racing Ready strives to give you all the facts, or at least verifiable researched Internet links for your learning & enjoyment pleasure. Sometimes, though, without complete success…

Definitely find Erik at the next event. Nicest guy around and will talk to you about anything and everything about the car and racing.
