Mazda recently stepped up to the Wall of Death challenge with their new Mazda2 mini. The Wall of death is a giant cylinder usually reserved for cyclists to defy gravity, but now Mazda has taken it to a whole new level. Take a look at the video, would you try it?
Taking its "defy conventions" approach to a new level, Mazda got in touch with "Dynamyte" Dave Seymour and his family, who run th Demon Drome Wall of Death.
Originally built in America in 1927, the Wall of Death is 31ft in diameter and 16ft tall.
The Mazda2 used was a 1.5-litre Sport model with the ESP and airbags disabled, the seats removed and a driver's bucket seat installed. The front fog lamps were also removed to allow more flexibility in the bumper and uprated bump stops were fitted to the suspension so that it could deal with the high compression rate involved in running around the wall, estimated at more than twice the force of gravity.
