Damn was hoping it was a rotary, but still, amazing car!
Damn the wiring on the Tec3 was super-clean! They definitely know how to do their s---.
The dual-fuel system is a great idea, well engineered vehicle

Re: 1,650 HP RX-7 sleeper!
It's great for what it was built for, but I would know not to race it from 1/8 mile away, and 1/2 mile away if it was running. I wouldn't call it a sleeper. I like how he talks about Ferraris. He'd kill them off the line, but would get lapped on any track other than quarter mile. Awesome work, though. I'd like to know the 1/4 mile times. he'd have to fill the rear with lead to get traction.

He's got no overdrive but he's got a 2.40 read end. With the 3-speed (1:1 in 3rd) and 325/50 tires, give the car a theoretical top speed of 288km/h(178.6mph) with a 5000rpm redline, if its not higher.
