Maybe its just me or the sound quality, but IMO I think a 3 rotor sounds much much better, definitely a nice ride though.

Seriously. I'm about to move there, there must be around 7 or 8 four rotors from there.

It would probably sound better if it had some Rotary Run headlights in it.

Not a bad effort aye, hes building a sister car too so he dosen't have to transport them between US/NZ.

Its making 480 hp at the wheels on run in tune at the moment so shud be good for around 550hp atw when sorted. Which is what you need to compete in the d1.

He said the old 20B just didn't have enough torque to get out of the lower speed corners, but with this setup he shouldn't have to rev as high to get the results which equals more reliability.

I agree that it is a waste of a 4 rotor. That engine deserves to hit some road courses. I would love to watch that car tear up a road course.

To me it doesnt matter what car gets the engine as long as we get more R&D on any kind of rotary. Aviation, water, road. We need more rotary vehicles period.

I tired of pistons being better souly to the research on rotaries being 1% compared piston engines.
