Default My new livery: The "787 Wanna B"

Some of you may have seen me post this on FB but I wanted to share it here as well. New graphics on car = it's like a new race car!

Introducing the “787 Wanna B.” My favorite racecar is the 1991 Mazda 787B, the 4-rotor fire snorting F1-sounding beast that beat Mercedes and Jaguar to win the 24 Hours of Le Mans. So, after having some crash work done this winter I decided to have the car painted orange and pay homage to the 787B!

My car is of course a mere 2-rotor Formula Mazda and is the 6throtary powered car I have owned. The problem now is that it is so beautiful I’m not sure I want to drive it!

Looks damn good! The line work and placement really fit the car well.
...Probably faster than the 787B as well!

Thanks guys! I'm really digging it. You'll see me cleaning rubber bullets off several times a day.

That's AWESOME!!! and looks even better on a proper racecar! Just stay in front and you won't have to clean any rubber bullets off ;-)

Very tasteful Dave, but I don't see any paw prints or hello kitty faces?

My favorite NP01 Livery- Until it crashed at Mid Ohio.... Happy to say it was rebuilt, just needed all the bolt on parts and some body parts. No welding needed. I drove it at a Daytona 14 hour race with the owner last May- He needs to replicate the wrap again.
