Sounds cool, but if my FC gets 19mpg. I am scared of that thing, I couldnt afford the fuel.

Mazda Furai 4-rotor concept race car

This is so so freakin amazingly sexy, no word on when/if it will race in ALMS or another series, but it's a concept car based on Mazda's old LMP2 Courage C65 chassis from the American LeMans Series
