In the video it sounds good and seems to go quite well.

Don't like the noise it makes.
Use a turbocharged Hayabusa lump instead. :y

Why would I buy a car that sounds like the exhaust is blowing? I already have an omega for that! :y

Prototype, LOL. ;D
Mate of mine had a rotary engined Westfield about 20 years ago.
Perfectly suited engine for a seven, really. Light, low C of G, plenty of power, revs like an angry wasp. Bit of a shame that it's "challenging" to get past the noise tests at most tracks in the UK. ;D

It's downsides don't really matter when fitted to a toy either. Terrible durability, no torque, total loss lubrication, crap emissions, poor economy and lots of noise.

Exactly. My Westfield has poor torque because the cams don't work until 4k RPM, but it'll still keep up with the traffic in 5th like a diseasel because it's so light.
Noise is the only real setback.

Sounds like my old C90 without an exhaust :D
