I just found this video on (where else?) youtube:

It's a comparison test from 1986 between the Porsche 944 turbo, Rx7 TII, Mitsubishi Starion, and 300ZX turbo.

Pretty spiffy.

 

hey good find that was prety cool

 

Motorweek is filmed in Owings Mills Maryland, I watched it all the time when I lived in MD. Summit Point is awesome, great track to run on

 

motorweek? yeah, i used to watch it all the time when i had cable. i still remember the kit car they built many, many, many years ago that they put a rotary engine in. the car was called the maxton rollerskate. they had a drawing back then and gave it away. i think some guy in FL won it after his wife sent his name in. then after getting back into rotarys, i decided to email them to see if they had a was that i could get in touch with that guy. seems that the winner sold the car back to one of the big men of the show. since it's been so long now, it may be just sitting somewhere.

EDIT: after posting this, i did a google search and found this:
