Check this thing out, I would love to see it (or a vehicle based off of it) go into production.

450 hp, mid-mounted 3 rotor engine.

Doesnt look heavy....

Nice, I seen this car a little while ago, but not the video!

I love the style, and it looks like its super areodynamic. Love the sound of the winding gears when he lets go of the throttle. I wonder how high that thing revs up to considering its a rotary...?

Sorry, but to me it looks like it needs some ironing

Definitely still a little rough, but I love the direction. If I had my druthers it would lose the wing either entirely or replace it with something much less pronounced, like the wing on the Koeniggsegg.

If they ever do make something like it it would probably have two of the new rotary engines bolted together then shoehorned into it. That would probably give it around 600 hp.

I do not know how high it is specified to rev in this particular video, but in the 90's the 20b engine was used in the Eunos Cosmo and revved to 7k in a 4spd auto.

[EDIT]
Just discovered that the race engine revs to 8500 rpm.
