3 rotors, 3 turbos....in a Probe?

The owner of this car previously had a full chassis 2nd gen with 20B and twin GT35/40s that ran 8.0 after only a few passes. Now this monster

The car did not run, just on display

Holy schnikeys!!! What are those people smoking down under that makes them dream up all these monsters that we only see pics of? Not sure what it is, but I wish there was more of it up here. Good show indeed.

We need more of that sort of thing up here. A V8 just doesn't do it for me.

Hey Jerk Racer, do you think a rotary powered GLC would make a good gymkhana car?

Why not? Having a short wheelbase with RWD and enough power to rotate the car at will should make for a fun car.

More events are on the way. We just have to find more locations that can handle our needs for gymkhana events. Most of the usual autocross locations are pretty solidly booked for the rest of the year until the normal season ends.


Sorry everybody, I didn't mean to hijack this thread. It just sort of happened.

Oops, I sent you a PM as well. I guess we could continue this in the Gymkhana thread in the NW section.

Yeah, nitrous has that really nice property of cooling things off just a bit.

No I/C. Shoot, they must not be running gasoline.
