If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

I hear on the rumour mill that a certain 'flaming' V8 supercar driver might have blown the engine up in this car?!

I believe hands of fire has a bit to answer for
Not able to beat rods time he perhaps pushed too hard
Hurt the car and still didn't match the time

I am sure the original mx8 will be back ....perhaps better than before

"My face...my beautiful face!!!" ?!

One would hope that Rod is being looked after with regards to putting the car right!

Pft, race drivers don't pay for the damage they do to engines, that's a team owners job. :lol:
