Rotary engines are perfect for racing... that's why there's so many restrictions - to make them lose.

They don't like the fact that such a small motor can make as much if not more than a bigger engine.

They did not bann the 4rotor in the le mans, they banned the adjustable intake runners for it, made less hp and I sure it fucked up the throttle response so it could not compete with the piston motors.

Anyways,when they banned his car,he came back a year later 13B n/a running 1 sec faster,nowe into the 9s.. all motor.. stock chassis.. stock wheel wells,and the car is like 2200 lbs.I got pics of that floating around in my comp.
It hilarious seeing him run against the hondas with tubs, fiberglass bodys and all. There he is with the stock body, running high 9's taken them all out.

He now run a p port 20b. He fought the rule and they drop it. But he has 2 cars: one his son races and one he races. The one his son races is the 13b p port and his is a 20b p ported.
