rx8 acceleration - 231 PS - 6 speed
2nd and 3rd gear - normally RX8 is much faster as you are changing 1st gear at 9000 rpm so you are starting 2nd gear from around 6000-7000 RPM - purpose of this video is to show engine performance during normal road conditions... not 0-60 race ....

I'm posting this link because a lot of people were commenting that a car weight would not shift to the front when decelerating.
This video was taken on the A327 near Mont-Tremblant. It just happens that for this road trip I decided to put the GoPro on, just for fun, just to film the twist and turns on one of the few nice roads that we have in Quebec.
I normally drive carefully, as I am long past the age where I was reckless, but this time, with the influence of my friends we decided to be a little bit more "adventurous". Very stupid decision, I didn't know the road, new suspensions adjustments were made especially for track event planned for the week after. So, in short, it was a stupid decision to drive that fast, there are race tracks everywhere just for that purpose.
For those people that think they would do better, that their car can beat the crap out of the RX8 and the Boxster, how bad I am at driving and so on, don't bother leaving a comment. You probably have better ways to waste your time.
The main reasons why I decided to post this video are 1: Hey, I happened to capture a major accident, that's not something that happens too often and 2: Some lessons have to be learned the hard way. I did, so there is a chance that some people would understand that driving recklessly on a public road is totally stupid. It's dangerous for your life and the life of others. Even if you're the best driver on the planet and that you have the best car available, there is still a chance that you could make a mistake or simply that someone else would come the other way while you are crossing that nice yellow line in the middle of the road.
The car was totaled and replaced it with a SUV and two motorcycles (Ninja 650r and a Ducati Streetfighter)
EDIT: This is not bragging, it's just that I receive so many question about what replaced the RX8

RX-8 vs. 500 HP BMW M5 at VIR. Mazda RX-8 wins.
Second session on Saturday, June 14, 2008. Finally let me pass after 1-3/4 laps. Both the BMW driver and I are advanced, high-performance driving instructors.
The RX-8 is completely stock except for a B&B muffler and Hawk HP Plus pads on the front. It does not have traction control or stability control. Tires are original stock street Potenzas. No doubt the M5 is stock too, and this has more to do with weight than horsepower.
Camera is a Creative Labs Vado cheapcorder stuck to the windshield with a suction cup cellphone holder. Video was recorded upside-down due to the mount, and was transcoded to rotate it. Quality suffered.
Test Drive 2007 Mazda RX-8 w/ Exhaust, and Full Tour
In this video I give a full in depth tour and test drive of a 2007 Mazda RX-8. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration with a full test drive over various road scenarios you might encounter during daily driving. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
