The ad says he has ". . . done several track schools at watkins glen with the car and have never been passed . . ."

I wonder what it runs for times.

SPA? Is that roll cage for real or is it bogus? I don't like the way it bends near the driver's side door.

Wait, I know someone who needs a track car.

Edit: Re-read it. Probably will be PA because of the widebody kit.

PA, since its not a Mazda motor and because of the wide body. Its a proven track car and it looks well sorted. Its an awesome combo for a track car. Carl and Paddy will attest to that.

It sounds funny, and doesn't leak enough oil.

In SP any motor can be used as long as it has the same # of cylinders as offered in the car...how would that play out with the rotory? I guess it would jump to the P classes. Same would be true if it was a Miata motor in an RX7 ?
