i’d imagine he has a hard time getting that power to the ground , how much do those things weigh anyways?
Sign me up!
1830 lbs stock if I remember correctly. That would be an interesting project. The power can get to the ground because the weight of the engine seems to be over the rear axles
Arent rotaries really light regardless?
I know the old rotory was only 1.3L.
It was cool to see him lift the front wheels in the one shot. bet with wider/stickyier tires it could do wheelies all day long.
Can be with aluminum sideplates. A stock turbo 13b fully dressed is nowhere near light.
The 1.3L figure is quite deceiving. It’s more of a 2.6L V6 equivalent or so…
that thing is pretty bad ass
I dont mean Rotaries are 100 pounds. But For the power they make, the power to weight ratio is really good. My 2.3 liter I4 in my tempo weighed like 250 pounds with everything on it and make about 60 hp.
