Does a Rotary engine lug?
Not that I would really try it, but I have noticed that the engine is incredibly smooth when taking off in first.. no usual bog like most piston engines. Most likely because it doesn't have the reciprocating mass that a piston engine does..

I've found that it does pretty well. For example, you can easily drive around a parking lot in 2nd gear. My buddy cannot do that in his wrx without riding the clutch.

Yeah the engine does pretty well. For instance you can take fairly steep inclines in 5th gear no problem and as mentioned, ride around a parking lot in 2nd gear.
