Wondering “What’s a rotary engine?”. Some of its appeal is its smoothness, for others it is the small size but very powerful engine. This short but LOUD video introduces the latter aspect.  In the clip, this previous generation rotary car - highly modified - illustrates just how much power a small rotary engine can unleash. <WARNING: ADJUST VOLUME - LOUD!>

RX-8 owners can only dream of that level of power, but the unique heart of the rotary is definitely in the RX-8 DNA. This Mazda ad highlights the 1.3 liter rotary engine currently powering the Pro Formula Mazda race car and every Mazda RX-8.

“Orange” is a mind’s eye view on the track. Short, soft, tantalizing.

 “1 Lap” showcases new technology that allows for some impressive tools for improving the driver’s skill. High Definition in-car video with GPS data aquisition brings the on-track driving experience closer than ever before to your computer screen.

Enjoy!
