The Mazda RX-792P is a sports prototype racing car built for the IMSA GT Championship's GTP category for Mazda. Its career was short lived, with only two cars running in 1992 before the project was abandoned.
The car's name is a combination of Mazda's RX-7 road car, the year the car raced (1992) and the fact that it was a Prototype.
