AN 8 Rotary Super Car ANYONE???
ROTARY SUPERCARS
http://www.worldcarfans.com/11108243...on-super-sport
Rotary Supercars has announced one of their upcoming models will be offered with an eight-rotor rotary engine that develops 2,840 PS (2089 kW / 2801 hp) and 2,580 lb-ft (3,494 Nm) of torque.
This will supposedly enable the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than one second (Top Fuel dragster territory) and hit a top speed in excess of 450 km/h (279 mph). If these figures pan out, the model would trounce the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport and claim a new world speed record for a production vehicle if it indeed achieves that status.
Previously, Rotary Supercars announced their Predator GT with a four-rotor Wankel engine - based on the Mazda 13B MSP - would develop up to 1,200 PS (883 kW / 1184 hp) and a second model called the VelociRaptor was also in construction.
We're taking everything with a grain of salt, but the company has plans to unveil their first model at Top Marques Monaco 2012.

me too, I was asked to come on board and be part of the company. I was asked to design the body, I did a couple initial concepts but did not hand them over due to a lack of payment. A few weeks later is when the photoshopped 599 appeared on the web, which wasnt even a good ps.

I called BS the first time I heard of this company. Talk is cheap. The opposite was the Fraser-Nash Namir that displayed a concept vehicle to demonstrate their technology. You can research their capital backing and history vs this nonsense.

and ill doubt they just mash up existing parts cuz i imagine it will be hard to find parts that meet weight requirements while being able to handle those kinds of powers.
