Actually the only car in our parking lot that could kick my assets is the Dr's vette. I couldn't get a 0-60 time for a stock RX-8 from their website but with a 13.25lb/hp and 19.15lb/torque vs 12.38lb/hp and 11.43lb/torque my zoom zoom would hold up fairly well vs. their zoom-zoom. That is until I had to turn or stop.
Of course I would not consider going up against one of their modded riceburners. I'll never forget the look on my (youngest) son's face when I said watch this and pinned him against the seat back when I floored it. His words were "cool". He has a V-6 accord EX. I also have a K&M intake that was modded for the car which adds to the pleasure. Allegedly + 9hp but worth much more in sound affects alone. My wife's common phrase is "Why do you do that?" which is answered by my son's "Because he can!" So I think Zoom Zoom fits.

JK=just kidding, but zoom zoom is sales marketing trade mark for mazda which is part of ford 
our GS's deserve way better names 
cool story, BTW your GS will take a stock RX8 off line, they suck at the bottom.
your youngest drives, i don't even what to know how old you are, all that matters is that you are a speed junky just like my self and many others on this forum 
i wonder if i will do things like this when i have kids
