All that stuff in the ass and for 440hp at the wheels? There are guys in twin turbo Zs running just like 245s or 275s or so with tons of hp. Why put wheelie bars and big ass tires on?
A:

ROTARY IS THE WORST!!!!!!!

A:

Nothing wrong with it, rotary engines are not the worst, the big wheels are for traction and the wheelie bar is to keep the front down plain and simple and im sure those twin turbo z's weigh at least twice the weight of that little datto

Lot of oil bottles in the front seat there. Is she a drinker?

A:

That thing looks like it weighs 2000lbs. TTZ's tip the scales at 3500 dry without driver. 440hp/2000lbs would equate to enormous numbers in TTZ's. The big tires and Ford 9-inch would surely give it enough traction to pull a giant wheelie.

A:

the 441 hp is at 19 psi mind u...it says it can boost up to 32 psi, hence again why the car is setup the way it is w/ big ol tires and wheelie bar...just think add another 13 psi to that 441 hp and your gonna get @least another 130+ hp easily and prolly alot more w/ fine tuning. that's extremely high output for a small displacement motor and such lightweight car
