      The more they made the cars the same, the more boring the racing got, in my opinion. Watching a nose to tail train of cars that only overtake in the pits is dead-set boring, in my opinion. Even F1 has gone that way now, unfortunately

There's nothing better than battling a weapon of a car as the underdog and re-adjusting your lines and STILL making the guy in the other car check his rearview wondering where the hell that annoying fly has gone only to see the little bastard creeping on your outside to finesse you for the inside line at the next corner. This was gorgeous to watch. Excellent capture!

      I'd take the Mustang, It has so much potential. If you make a slight mistake battling in the turns, the torque from the V8 would help out on the straights and turn exits. funny enough, the mustang actually seems more gripped up in the corners, the Mazda slid a bit. You can fight the weight with good driving skills like the driver does here.

    The Mazda-Fiat (Mafiat?) seems to have the edge on intermediade straights where it can rev high but absolute top speed is not a factor and it seems to have higher cornering speed if the driver nails the corner entry. That's where the Mustang looks a lot more stable. Plus low rev torque and top speed are better. Really good fun to watch.

    Is it just me or muscle cars are cousins to grand tourer. Luxury interior and V8 are some of a grand tourer's characteristics including larger size. Plus there are muscle that has GT emblem on them. Great race between the two, raw power and agile cornering. Nice to see different makes and models racing with each other.

      Rotary is the ideal engine for turbo , because of the ability of peripheral ports on intake and exhaust not mentioning bridge port, turbo is all about maximum flow, so Rotary is the perfect engine,

    • @kevinjekyll1521
      @kevinjekyll1521 2 роки тому

      Yes looking to build something, i think a turbo rotary is the only way to get torque down lower in the rev range? 13b or 12a? is the rx 8 a good platform? Thanks for any input.
