I owned and daily drove one in the early 1990's for a length of 6 years as a daily driver. They are a fucking night mare, too sensitive to any exhaust system back pressure, too loud, too much fuel and POOR power in street trim.
As a racing engine they are weak in power, sad but true. On a level playing field (and even on when where they have weight breaks to the rotary favor and also no restrictors) they are still a very shit motor.
You can watch a 4 rotor NA PP being lapped like a back marker in this race, "too much fuel use" & "low in power" says it all.
That is why rotaries are not made any more.
