Here's a video of my Grassroots Motorsports $2006 Challenge RoSpit, also known as the Abomination.

The driver is a local hotshoe, he's done the One Lap of America a few times and has lots of open wheel experience. The passenger is a girl who runs a Nissan Spec V in G Stock and beat her husband's time at the last AX, so she's not without experience. That makes the squeals all the funnier!

Was that video or just a series of photographs? lol

the FPS on that was horrible!

 

It played fine for me. The frame rate was fine and at least as smooth as any other streamed vid I've seen.

Looked like a fun course, too!

 

Here's anothe video from the June 9 AX. The passenger is my brother, who's never done an AX before and I think he's hooked.

Rotary spitfire? I had heard of this fabled beast. After I finish my turbo swap into my 88 vert, I am going to drop the n/a from it into my friends 65 spitfire.

Any tips, suggestions, warnings etc?

 

How about this one?

I'd dig a rotary powered Spitfire!

 

The hard part is building a rear axle that will live. A stock Spit diff is good to maybe 100 HP on a good day. I went through a lot; I used Miata rear knuckles, custom made control arms and a cut down GXL diff. The good thing is I can wind it up and dump the clutch and it moves instead of breaking something.

 

Good stuff. Thanks man. Beautiful car!
