Now thats quick :chat

I\'d love to see that over here and at TOTB hahaha.

it\'d be interesting if it had as it\'d be the holder of the unoficial world record for a rotary I reckon.

the two quickest cars are both RX8\'s last I read. One in the US (Abel Ibarra) and one in Peurto Rico (Major League Rx8 ... siguel Racing tuned?) both are running in 6.7ish range.

RX8??? U serious?...Never knew they were that fast:p

It would be making a lot more than 900hp if it is running those times. Haven\'t heard anything about an FC running those numbers. Maybe a 7.6 - no way a 6.6.

Was about to say the same - if its 900hp running 6s the motor and running gear must be strapped directly to the driver!!

And yes Mike, the ML RX8 runs a Kiwi-RE short crank triple motor tuned by Siguel. Respec!

Hmmm, I can\'t find the link - do you have the direct link?

As far as I know, no rotary in the world has run a 6.6 as yet.

I reckon that time should actually be credited to flaco racing and Abel Ibarra as they have currently run a 6.7@204.35mph ... Major league has not matched that (yet?)

This is a better thread for the World Wide list of Top 1/4 mile rotors (point 17.):
