The next best thing to having the opportunity to drive Mazda’s 600-horsepower GTO-spec RX-7?
Here’s a virtual chance to ride shotgun as the old-school racer takes on the high banks of Daytona during the Rolex 24 at Daytona HSR Classic.

So cool. And wow, that's a lot of time just sitting on the rev limiter on the straights.
In reply to gearheadE30 :
Yeah, I noticed that, too. Makes for a great soundtrack, though.
These are the sounds I should use as white noise because I slept like a baby during HSR and the Rolex. Maybe race car noises are just what I need.
I have a few great video clips of Tom coming into the international horseshoe with that sunset in the background. Was a great time to shoot. Also I loved that you could tell where he was on track any time he was full throttle.
Thanks for sharing. Would be better if the camera were mounted higher so we could see the track.
Thank you.
And for more on the IMSA GTO RX-7, we have a video over on the Classic Motorsports side of things:
