Bad *** 3-rotor

It's from a local shop a few years back i thought they had dyno'd at 847rwhp at one point.

I could go without the wing.

Awesome car. Could use some paint... and yes, LOSE that wing. It makes the car look cheap. Just my opinion about aluminum wings...

Sad thing is the shop went out of business not pettit but speedcraft where they did alot of the other work. One of the owners went to jail and the one guy left and started up another shop and after that it went downhill.

Does any one here know the owner of this car? I bought an nsx through his dad that was selling it for him, but never saw his son. He said he was in trouble and had to sell the car and maybe the rx7. I remember it was awesome. Said he owned a shop in orange park
called Speedcraft. Heard he went to jail, but for what?
