    You can have "all around fun" with an American engine, very easily. You can do the exact same things with it that you can do with a rotary - but the American engines will be making power power while they're doing these things that you define as "all around fun".

    I guess we should tell LeMans and Formula 1 to look into switching to rotary engines, as their piston engines are obviously not fit for the type of driving they are doing. They need an "all around fun" engine don't they?

    You idiot.
    Le Mans is a race sir... But yeah ALMS, Grand Am, etc all have rotary powered cars, not ALL but they do exist.

    You know what I meant smartass!

    I know there are rotaries in those series, but the piston engine cars are obviously NOT inferior to the rotary cars - as driftjunior is implying - that piston engine cars are not fit for that type of racing, is completely incorrect.
