The Mazda 767B was supposed to be a hero of Monterey Car Week. Instead, footage from the Laguna Seca paddock shot by Instagram user @per.0.xide shows the No. 203 prototype engulfed in flames under a tent during the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Pre-Reunion, turning a bucket-list race week into a worst-case paddock moment for rotary fans.
The car was stationary when the fire started; crews quickly hit it with extinguishers, and the Ghost Riders Squad confirmed in a statement that no one was hurt. What is clear is that the privately owned No. 203 767B will not run in the remaining Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion sessions, leaving one less screaming four-rotor on the entry list and plenty of questions about the damage.
