Apparantly my car has a distributor and a displacement of 2.354 Liters I think it's actually about 2.616L in piston terms.

 

is there an fc one of these?

 

well damn...I can't get my NA to get over 125 without 400000 miles of roadway and the wind pushing from behind...But hey I like to see what the car was like new!

 

That was an FC, think it's a 87.. but since I don't have sound I don't know if he said it.

 

The 2354cc figure comes from the 1.8 multiplication factor applied to rotaries in most racing formulas.

 

boy that was cool. I love old school stuff, reminds me of the quality of vids they used to show back in h.s.

 

can't see it..........only sound
edit: nevermind, it is AVI. I will intall DIVX in this comp...thanks for the vid though.

 

that was a cool movie

 

so are there 1.8 multiplication factors for 2-stroke piston engines as well?

 

Good video

 

I've been looking for that video clip for awhile now! Thanks for the link!!!

 

Its early european version NA - that explains why there is distributor and not CAS

 

Thanks, I wish I didn't delete this the first time I downloaded it!

 

I do like how the car has 150 miles on it and he's doing 120 MPH! Engine break in? We don't need no stinkin' break in!

 

dude i feel privilaged that one of my quotes is in your sig. lol

 

lol, good vid.

 

I wish I could view avi files

 

i'd like to see a 944 turbo vs a turboII.

 

Are they still in the same league?

 

i'm not sure. i'd love to see an 89 turboII vs an 89 944 turbo though. i know the porsche costs more but i thought they were still in the same "class"

 

thanks for the video, it was made before i was born i believe, me and my fc share a birthday.....

 

I didn't put too much effort into looking at the exact file types, but by watching the video it looked like a DIVX file. If you wan't to view it, check out:

www.divx.com/ and download their free version, or someone may be able to link to you the older version of divx. As it wont have the stupid popup crap that comes with it now.

Good Luck.

 

That was cool thanks for the download!

 

I have no idea. I not into motorcycle racing, which is where you're most likely to find 2-strokes racing 4-strokes. 2-strokes and rotaries are dofferent though, so if there's a factor it's probably something else.

 

i thought it was an 85 (i saw the date up there and assumed that)
