    Like I said, the races I've seen with both rotary cars and piston cars, the rotaries always dropped back when they had to go uphill. The commentator (sp?) said something to the effect of, "if you pay attention when the track goes uphill, you will notice the rotary powered cars always lose a couple places."

    I don't know what is ignorant about anything I said, except the plane crashing comment... but I was joking with that.

    You are smart enough to know that the GT500 class was created to let the manufactures have a field to compete with unlimited budgets. That is why 2008 GT500 class cars have superior Aero to ACO/FIA GT1 class race cars and the only thing faster around a race track than a GT500 car with closed fenders is a prototype. A tuner like RE Amemiya can't afford a 100 million a year budget on a racing sport. That is why GT300 is fought amongst high end tuner companies.

    I mean.....remember my front engined NSX prototype Honda is testing? And to those that say, "we'll isn't MR better weight distribution" go read the GT500 rule book to understand.
