why is everyone giving him such a hard time about this? If I would break a car by going rather quickly in reverse and then sliding it around, then it deserved to be destroyed...that is hardly beating on a car to some offensive degree...full throttle acceleration is way harder on the expensive stuff of that thing than just backing up real fast and spinning around...that just hurts tires, and eventually suspension bushings...wait till the guys that "race" often see what their cylinder walls look like...that is abuse...
I am not defending the racing or anything...It is just extremely ignorant to say "I am worried about buying a used car now" or something...you undermine the countless half-wits that go 15K miles with dino oil, without changing it once...or NEVER changing a manual gearbox's oil because you didn't even know it had gear oil (I seriously have witnessed this on a 130K mile car...owner wondered why it "broke")...chances are that dudes car is in way better shape that the countless current protege owners...the current ones that look at a protege as an A-B car...and don't give half a s*** about it, except for if it is washed...people like that are why I am afraid of used cars...people that drive harder tend to at least know what the hell you need to do to keep a car maintained...
I am not saying I understood what was going on there...frankly I have no idea what the hell was going on...but after reading all the posts (which I did before watching the video), its as if this guy flung his car over an interstate with a trebuchet...

I get owned day in day out by JCELL by his MP2(Protege Es). Regardless I have done some stuff like the video but mostly parallel parks for fun. I plan running it to the ground and building it back so needless to say I bought it to DRIVE it.
PS-Jcell will soon be loosin. He knows why. = )

I was kinda hoping that when you were flying through the parking garage someone would have pulled out and you slammed into them. That was a dumbass move.

plus you have a check engine light and it looked like your seatbelt light was on too.

what's the blue smoke coming out of the exhaust??
the first vid wasn't too bad. at least it was in an empty parking lot.
the second one, man, 100mph or kph? if mph....dude, that is pushing it. I mean, it is a city/suburb street.
the parking deck too wasn't too smart. I like to have fun, but sure as hell make sure there is no cars around me (plus my car is a weak 80hp that it won't let me do that kind of s***)

LOL, it's kph. 1) He's Canadian (speaking french in the first vid) 2) the mph speedo has more space between the numbers.
The car sounded good on drivebys, but I was wincing through the parking garage. I was hit pulling out of a spot in my Neon by someone who was racing down the aisle like that

Actually I'm Russian-Ukrainian.
The funny thing that the guy in mp3 was saying: I'm better, I'm better, I will win this race i have 10h.p. more!!! HAHA...and then i smoked him twice.
p.s. Any russian-ukrainian speaking can watch it it's kinda funny.
The speed was in km/h (not mph)
The wincing sound it's funny i should say that it's twin-turbo or something...lol

It is mainly the driver that makes the difference (especially there is only 10hp diff stock to stock). Don't be too proud to have smoked a MP3 twice....the fact is that you smoked your friend twice....by the way, your ES looks better with stock tail light...

I'm not that stock buddy. I believe if i sit in his car and he will sit in mine I will smoke him too....no offers ...i see that u have mp3 too. I love them i had mp3 for a couple of month ...what a difference between es...the fact is that i smoked my friend twice who drive almost same car as i do with 10 h.p. more no blameSKY said:
The biggest issue you are facing and the most criticism is stemming on the fac yeah, you beat an mp3. But you did it street racing, where kids are killed every year doing the same stuff you videotaped.
The other thing people are giving you greif over is how you abused your mazda by flying it in reverse.
If you are gonna videotape a race to be put onto the web, do it legally, and take it to a track. Before I get a comeback like "we don't have a drag strip, so I gotta use a crowded street" excuse, http://www.missionraceway.com/
I guess all we can ask is you be more responsible in your driving habits, so we do not have to see a thread about you killed yourself or an innocent victim.
Looking forward to more videos, but responsible ones, like heads up at the track.

yeap...I 100% agree with you. But that time i didn't want to race it just happend... I will try to prevent that in future. Don't tell me about dead bodies and victoms I already know about them and I seen them dead many times (my parents were working at morgue - yes. morgue at age 10 i visited them i went inside morgue by accident...not a good picture there...then after a while I was a witness on murder scene ...fatal scene...some gandgs or whatever killed police man on my eyes.) So bassicly i know what the issues are. I will definatly go at mission race track next time.RaiderMP5 said:

I don't really see something wrong with by flying it in reverse? The parking lot was bassiclly empty. No one could be hurt or something!
