Abel Ibarra and the K&N Filters RX-8 made huge news for the rotary world by blasting an unprecedented 6.84/190 in first round match up with Tirso SanJuan – the quickest pass in rotary competition history. <span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>According to Ibarra data logger, the RX-8 has much more potential since the throttle was only 75% open in fourth and fifth gears.</span>
