@Slowshyy i would never leave any of my cars online, enless its a car i have a duplicate of. and everytime you would go back to you it if you borrow it, you would have to redo all the settings.
@darkeyce02 Only your friends can see it if it's online and it's also impossible for them to steal it from you. And it's not exactly hard to remember the settings you applied before. Heck, you can find really good ones online.
i love how the quad rotory sounds at idle it fools you into thinking it's some type of beastly v8 then it revs up and it sounds like a thousand screaming baby's from hell it's amazing
@skvakagud To me, at idle, it sounds like it's about to fly apart. If any of my cars made a noise like that I'd pull them over and drop the oil pan, expecting the rod bearings to be smeared all over the outside of the innards.
Idle sounds like shit. Too much lope, too much crackle. Sounds good once you get the revs up though.
@TestECull ah damn o: I feel you feel that way, then i guess i cant blame you, and thank you for coming with a decent arguement... To me, it sounds like an evil beath, breathing very hard. Just before it charges.. that "Vumm.. Vumm.. Vumm.. Vumm.." very fast.. / u can hear it rotating compared to the "rattle" a piston engine like a boxer will give.. I just like that, but ofc i respect u got a diff. oppinion, always interresting seen what people find awesome (:
@Raptorx007 some slight difference that could make one say they work in different ways, but yes the concept of a rotary engine was made by Wankel from Germany. ( Cant remember the first name )
The rotary wasn't banned from Le Mans. In 1991, FISA (FIA) enacted the *second* round of regulatory changes designed to standardize competition with a 3500cc engine. This action had nothing to do with the Wankel design.
But, this moved Mazda (and any other non conforming engines) to Class2 competition. That is not the same as a ban.
In fact, had Mazda presented a 3500cc Wankel (instead of 2616cc), it would have been met specification for Class 1 - and completely dominated the field.
@JORDANIAN94 Beauty is in the eye, or I suppose, ear of the beholder. Beautiful is not how I would describe the sound of this race car. To me, beautiful is that crackling uneven lope of a big cam, high compression big block idling, or the full on war cry of 800HP+ V8’s roaring down the ¼ mile. But that’s just me.
that ain't a Bridgeport, that's full on Peripheral
the reason for the brap-brap brap is mainly because in a Peripheral port motor, as well as with (bridge\monster port engines) the inlet is actaully full open 360º
@Woodsy8686 And does that hold true for the muscle cars with the v8s as well, the thrum-thrum-thrum sound you get from the muscly ones? I was told the Cam has alot to do with it also?
@bendystix the rotary does that because when it is ported as a "bridgeport" there is a seperate intake cut out for intake of gas mixure, right above the original intake port. this leaves a "bridge" between the 2 ports and gives it the brap brap brap brap sound. not sure about the v8's though.
@bendystix i you mean an engine sounding like its about to die and then pick back up over and over, most cases its blower surge with a carburated engine, basically the engine leans out, revs up, sucks more fuel in, which slows the engine down... rinse and repeat...
happens in diesels too, almost same reason, the fuel pump being a bigger aftermarket pump puts out way more fuel, and the idle controller messes up and the engine surges
@bendystix It's more to do with the porting on the engine, a standard rotary doesn't have much - if any - of the 'brap brap' at idle, it's only when the intake and exhaust ports are made bigger when that sweet sound starts to really appear.
@909Monopoly not rly. i think there where some probs with the cars and the drivers complained about loosing there hearing bec it was so loud. also it wasnt as fast as the other group c cars. its just it is the most reliable and when all the cars setting a good pace retired from mech probs this was all that was left of the faster cars.. and they pulled it apart after 24 hour lemons and the engine had almost no wear! thats amazing. but i love this car. probs my fav car ever
Truly a unique sound. I remember being at Le mans in the late 1980's and early 1990's before the ACO messed up the circuit completly. At 2 am when we were trying to get a little sleep, we could hear these cars on the run from mulsanne corner to Arnage , that is some distance from Houx camping. I was very happy to see these cars win with Herbert and co. I have quite a few photos, the original stickers and Charge jacket.Also video at Brands Hatch of white 1. We used to joke with a combe and tissue
This car won le-mans. One of the fastest cars in the world. It got banned from racing in Le-mans the following few years after racing. Lol too much power ftw
In a league of it's own, there is no comparison to any other race car other than HP/TQ numbers. Say what you want, there is a reason why it was banned after Le mans. Sort of related to why the RX-8's are held on BS restrictions in the GT-Class, and they still put sad faces on their opponents.
Grapes.... dawg..... you do not know what you are talking about.... sorry dawg!!!! Rotary's have 3 combustion chambers per rotor... each side of the triangle is a combustion chamber! STOP TALKING DAWG! PLEASE!....
wnakle engines only have one combustion champer. meaing there is only one area of ignition. the reason the 787b had 3 spark plugs was to improve efficiency. many piston engines are start to have 2 plugs per cyclinder.
WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???? Rotaries have 3 chambers 1 per side of the rotor each rotor! the 787b had 3 plugs per rotor 2 trailing one leading. As far has piston engines having 2 plugs per Cyl thats a Waste spark system. and is OBSOLETE!
but only one area of the rotor fires, it s still only has 1 chamber for each rotor that fire. 3 chambers wold mean 3 seperate area of firinging. the 3 plug fired a single chamber, they fired at different time to make the fuel burn more effectivly meaning more power was obtained from a single cycle. even tho modern engines use a single plug the way the engine is fueld throught the injectors allow a more perlonged firing sequence giving a longer power delivery making the use of fuel more effective
This car does about 2.7 seconds 0-60. It's acceleration was great, but it lacked a lot of speed compared to other cars. Where it did not have speed, it made up with extreme durability, which is why it won. Love this car.
actually you'd be surprised. grip is a huge limiting factor for a car like that. maybe once it got up to 60mph he could really lay down the power, but not before.
yep. it was banned becuase it was waaaay too dominate of a race car. lol. it was killing the competition, so it was banned. people were complaining about how unfair it was. love it!
in terms of making a whole paper short, it was too fast, french didn't like it, they thought it was an unfair advantage. also the engine construction was indifferent, thus leading Le Mans chairmen to believe Mazda had the upper hand in the race. But, i love rotaries, i own one myself, and with those "new" Le Mans rules, i say, to hell with em.
they didn't say they couldn't be used, but completely failed to created a category or an agreed displacement conversion. Outlawed by default, but not in so many words. If that makes sense?
This car was beating anything in lemans due to its weight power ratio. It's a great car and just because it had that much advantage they banned rotarys from lemans :(. Love the 787b
Except the fact that it's designed to burn oil, oil is injected into the combustion chamber. You can also disable the oil pump and premix like a two stroke.
They break because carbon buildup wears the seals out or because people think they have no real redline and abuse them, or they forget to keep adding oil because they don't know what they're doing.
annoying..... yes. strange? not really. Nissan skyline got banned from aussie touring cars as no-one could keep up. Caterham 7 got banned from some prototype thing in the 80's cos an almost road spec car was being bmw etc's $£silly prototypes. For me, if mazda were open with the fia about power output it could easily of been classified, and then minimum weight regulation would of taken care of the rest. Bring back the rotaries!! Bring back the turbines!!
this decision was made far earlier then mazda won Le Mans. Actually in 1990 peugeot introduced 3,5L V10 "905" and mercedes also had c291 with 3,5 12 boxer and everyone know that 1991 was last chance for good old Group C. Peugeot for 1991 take 905 mercedes selected good old C11 in favor of new prototype... Mazda actually had lowest fuel consumption, but was ALOT lighter than the others, 830kg/1000kg, thats fact, Jacky Ickx was able presuade FISA about weight.
I dont know why someone give you thumb down, you are correct, 787B wasnt any superior to others of Group C, in qualify for Le Mans 1991, number 55 qualified 12. much slower than mercedes c11 and porsche 962c, both on straight and pace on lap despite much lower weight 830kg vs. 1000kg for porsche, mercedes, jaguar... Still this is my favorite group C car:-)
group c's had the most badass sounds and designs D:

spankyb16 2 years ago
actually you'd be surprised. grip is a huge limiting factor for a car like that. maybe once it got up to 60mph he could really lay down the power, but not before.

i remember doin a research paper on this car, how it was banned from le mans, and the revolutionary design of the r26b motor.
Sol5t1c3 2 years ago
seriously ? it was banned? holy crappp dude.
johntran 2 years ago
yep. it was banned becuase it was waaaay too dominate of a race car. lol. it was killing the competition, so it was banned. people were complaining about how unfair it was. love it!
ByronSW32 2 years ago
It was banned because of the weight, it was much lighter than the other cars though it made the same power if not a little more.

why?...to fast or somthing?
residentevillord 2 years ago
in terms of making a whole paper short, it was too fast, french didn't like it, they thought it was an unfair advantage. also the engine construction was indifferent, thus leading Le Mans chairmen to believe Mazda had the upper hand in the race. But, i love rotaries, i own one myself, and with those "new" Le Mans rules, i say, to hell with em.

This is what rotards actually believe.

This is also why the 787B was banned from le mans.

Yeah they did the same thing to Steve Saleen with restrictor plates, it was a GM payoff. Its very underhanded some of the things they slide by.

Haa i used to play that game every day. Yeah, it was the best "car". The F1s put all the cars to shame tho :s.

but what about the F090/S
qwertyboy1234567899 2 years ago
Yea, the F1s are the fastest outright. I just love the handling and acceleration of the 787b, its good in the endurance races too for tire wear.
3tittiefreak 2 years ago
@3tittiefreak is it actually in Gran Turismo 3? Or was that a stupid question.

@3tittiefreak I love that game! I hope Gran Turismo 5 is the same but with better graphics. lol!

they didn't say they couldn't be used, but completely failed to created a category or an agreed displacement conversion. Outlawed by default, but not in so many words. If that makes sense?

This car was beating anything in lemans due to its weight power ratio. It's a great car and just because it had that much advantage they banned rotarys from lemans :(. Love the 787b

shame the street rotary isn't as good as the race rotary... burning oil and breaking all the time.
alexander1485 2 years ago
Except the fact that it's designed to burn oil, oil is injected into the combustion chamber. You can also disable the oil pump and premix like a two stroke.
They break because carbon buildup wears the seals out or because people think they have no real redline and abuse them, or they forget to keep adding oil because they don't know what they're doing.
TKDWolf 2 years ago
they burn oil due to being essentially a 2 stroke, and break due to poor/incorrect ownership techniques.
russ13b 2 years ago
Except Mercedes was winning until the second to last lap when they broke down....

Correct.....ironically it was the reliability of the car that won them the race.
soloracer951 2 years ago 4
technically they didn't get banned, but, when new catagories were introduced and all the engine requirements were for pistons.
russ13b 2 years ago
I mean quite weird that after mazda won the introduced this requirements isnt it strange?
3L3CTR0static 2 years ago 2
annoying..... yes. strange? not really. Nissan skyline got banned from aussie touring cars as no-one could keep up. Caterham 7 got banned from some prototype thing in the 80's cos an almost road spec car was being bmw etc's $£silly prototypes. For me, if mazda were open with the fia about power output it could easily of been classified, and then minimum weight regulation would of taken care of the rest. Bring back the rotaries!! Bring back the turbines!!
russ13b 2 years ago 7
this decision was made far earlier then mazda won Le Mans. Actually in 1990 peugeot introduced 3,5L V10 "905" and mercedes also had c291 with 3,5 12 boxer and everyone know that 1991 was last chance for good old Group C. Peugeot for 1991 take 905 mercedes selected good old C11 in favor of new prototype... Mazda actually had lowest fuel consumption, but was ALOT lighter than the others, 830kg/1000kg, thats fact, Jacky Ickx was able presuade FISA about weight.
999miki 2 years ago
I dont know why someone give you thumb down, you are correct, 787B wasnt any superior to others of Group C, in qualify for Le Mans 1991, number 55 qualified 12. much slower than mercedes c11 and porsche 962c, both on straight and pace on lap despite much lower weight 830kg vs. 1000kg for porsche, mercedes, jaguar... Still this is my favorite group C car:-)
