Using a Rotary engine, from 1985 RX-7 13B. With 50mm side draft(chock incl) and rx-7's rear end with custom lotus a Frame link set up. After my friend build and register it. he drove it for about a year, then the car get park it behind a shop on top of Frame table for almost 10 years... Bought this car last year. since I intention of any sport car I own, is to have fun on race track. so althoguht the car is pretty good street car. but still need a lot of work on the different area my friend take this picture at street of willow in SCA. my best lap time of that day is 1:28:5xx http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1948685639_y1pTdJgZ-Sb2_uPH7j-em8kB5XmTxB0p0WAoaw6AAQKA2SUvkA-FZ2KOGNxrv8Oxp64.jpghttp://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1556934231_lotus7.jpg
slngsht Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 BTW, there are a few other rotary sevens running around... Old Yellow has a 13B normally aspirated Rotus, but he is not very active here. Steve Wann has a turbo 13B Rotus. He will be at the dragon.
Al N. Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Welcome. No need to call it a "clone" in these parts. Se7en or LSiS (or in your case, DIY Locost) does just fine. -Al
