  • In 2015 we celebrated no only Mazda, but also the mighty, rotary-engined, 787B, the car that won Le Mans in 1991, and remained the only Japanese victor until 2018. The 787B wasn't alone, as it headed up the hill with the IMSA version - the RX-792P - as well as 787, RX-7 and more to celebrate Mazda's racing rotary heritage at the Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard #FOS #Mazda #rotary

      The best thing about this car: After it had done the 24h, it didn't need any engine revisions at all and was ready to do another 24h immediately after, while _all_ the other cars had to head back in to get their engines completely pulled apart and worked over.

      @@Flyingdutchy33 Yes, exactly, but the body (engine mount) was on the limit (read the book written by Pierre Dieudoné "NEVER GIVE UP" / The story of Mazda's racing cars). The 787B (I saw it in 1991...😉) was driven on the limit by Herbert/Gachot/Wedler (Jacky Ickx have recommended the Oreca's Team to do it in the night when they were 2nd...). So this 787B couldn't run for another 24 hours... It was a fabulous car with a symphonic engine, lots of fire in the exhaust pipe (downshifts) and the first with carbon breaks at the 24 hours of Le Mans...!

      No, Mazda have given one 787B to the Museum of Le Mans in 1991... It was a white and blue... They have painted it in the color of the winner's car before... (orange/green / "Charge-Renown"). Good present! The "real" is in Japan... and on Goodwood's show... 🎌😉

      @@AJDOLDCHANNELARCHIVE The 787B won one race in 1991 on competitor attrition and bad weather, but over the two seasons that it ran, it was not competitive in the least. The RX-792P wasn't very good either (reliability issues, too heavy), but it was noteworthy for being one of the first race cars developed with CFD and had one of the best L:D ratios at the time. From a technical standpoint, the later impresses me more.
