Rally Prep

Once I find an FD chassis, I'm going to begin converting it to a rally/track car. Does this tentative plan sound reasonable?

- Learn to TIG weld, buy a welder
- media blast the chassis, get it immediately epoxy primed
- Build an FIA spec roll cage with my mechanical engineer brother
- Get it painted
- Make underbody protection with some high strength plastic
- Rally suspension
- Drop a rotary back in it
- Accusump
- Race seats/harness
- Make a custom data acquisition platform out of some Arduino's

Then it's off to the races!

Do these rotary motors need anything special to handle high Gs and lots of revs?
