...with a rotary?! Wut?!

My friends ride. Freshly rebuilt motor. Just going out for a cruise to put miles on it yesterday. It's only tuned on a basemap right now. All the smoke is oil from a previous problem, just hasn't burned off yet.

Once fully tuned, should be around 300whp. The other day he was going uphill in the rain and couldn't get traction at 40% throttle. I didn't catch it on video but when he floors it and lets off he gets a small backfire, no flames though, yet.

Sounds nice..I am not a huge fan of Miata's but his is not done badly. Especially with those kinda numbers. Not so sure about the grenade vinyl..but if it is a drift car then I guess it works

sweet sound, but i think he needs to switch his left wheel to right and right wheel to left. It's going to the wrong direction. You can see it from the 2nd vid..

He got on it a few times, I just didn't have the camera on. I think you guys are seeing things. Tires/wheels are on/going the right way.
