RX8 4 Rotor is now running!!!

Hi Everyone,

The time has come to actively take part in the RX8 forum. I have in the past made a small amount of posts, mainly to sell a few things that we didn't need on the race car.

Over the last 12 months we have been in the process of building an RX8 4 Rotor, and we have actually had it running for quite some time, but there were a few little things here and there that we weren't quite happy with.

For the time being I have included a couple of links of us testing at Willow Springs, and also on the dyno, and later on I will post up pictures of the build process.

We certainly look forward to Seven Stock, in which we hope to have the car on display!!!

If I have not linked the videos properly, can someone please let me know whats best - it's a shame that I can wire a car, but not know how to upload videos to a forum


Enjoy!!!!

Regards
Sarah

Thank you so much. I LOVE hearing 4 rotors (You'd think I'd tire by now).
