and all the while making reliability 1000x worse... rotaries are ****....how about not blowing up at the track for once..
Then explain this. Why do most grassroots road racers pick rotary cars over piston ones?
Because they can get at least 1 season out of them if not 2 or 3 before needing a rebuild. Piston engines need to be refreshed every 3rd or 4th race.
1/4 mile?? Then fastest PISTON cars blow their engines 3/4 the way down the track. That means the pistons engine lasted all of about 30 seconds. Including the burn out and ideling waiting to run.
My car has 400 RWHP and has for over a year now. It will beat 90% of the cars it sees on the road and I have not lost a race yet. That includes Z-06's worked over WS-6's you name it.
Do I hate pistons engines? Hell no! I have owned many piston cars over the years and love those too. I just get a huge kick out of getting so much out of a 1.3 litre engine.

Ok SO LISTEN TO THIS
I crew for an RX7 drag car. After each race THE ENGINE stays IN the car. I cannot say the same for vinnie and all the supra boys. They rebuild their motors after every weekend. The piston motors just cant handle the repeated stress weekend after weekend.
Now, this drag car is running in the 7's, making almost 1k hp on alcohol. Go back to your ******* hole
