Check out the footage of the Gordon Murray T.50 that was at this show....different beast again 12.000 rpm . sounds like old school erly 90's f1 and it's a streetcar. mikes car is special.....but it has nothing on the sound of theT.50.
on friday it was without a doubt the loudest car at FOS, including F1 cars, but it had a few issues, not sure if he made some changes but on saturday and sunday it seemed a bit quieter, probably just me though
@@kaijuryuk rotaries are notoriously louder than a majority of piston engines btw... Having 3 cycles going through the same small port that opens up to 4-5" is essentially a massive megaphone that amplifies it even more lol.
In 2017 I was at a Cars and Coffee where the Gia Lai Team showed up. They are notorious for being very loud when they leave. I shot a video sitting on the curb about 10 feet behind one of their Aventadors as it bounced off the limiter for a solid 20 seconds. Every back fire felt like getting punched in the chest, and I felt the heat of every flame that spat out the back of it. My ears rang for the next few minutes after. A 3 rotor I saw at a drag strip was significantly louder from the stands than that Aventador from 10 feet. Calling it a monster does it absolutely no justice.
The shot of the steam coming out of the radiators being carried over the car in perfect streamlines was the most epic depiction of the power and precision of this project. Epic work!!
If you are a ricer boy and like obnoxious noise yes. If you like the music of a fine tuned engine exhaust and engine, the original P1 engine is just that.
@@vitalpandya7908 So what ? F1 cars are hybrid since 2014. The Lambo Revuelto is a Hybrid. The Ferrari SF90 is a hybrid. the Porsche 918 is a hybrid. Now go goggle them and learn cause you probably don't know anything about cars.
What a machine and made it 10x better with that 20B swap. It looks like it's having clutch/trans issues and I remember Madmike running into them from his YT build videos. I'm sure he and the team will take their time sorting the car out after rushing to complete it in under the 100day build time. This is the most insane build in the world at the moment IMO.
they talked about it on the build series on mad mike ytb channel, they said it would probably not last the full FOS but then they would use it as much as possible
@@xViRUz7624 yup I remember that. pretty sure it's part 3 or 4 where it's mentioned. Plus they had to redo, from scratch a whole new turbo kit/manifold/shifter. Most customs builds need minimum of a year of shop time to build and in normal conditions, 2yrs total to be 100% dialed in. the fact they managed to finish a hybrid build where every single part is custom in 100days is absolutely mad!! just shows how dedicated MadMike and his team are on such a unique car build. Mind you, only rotary swapped 650s in the world..lol
@@patrickkdev oh you mean Ryan turek the drifter. Yeah I watched that entire build. I'd say that car is a level under this one. But absolutely epic build too.
I'm glad they did it and the noise was amazing but another rush job that just didn't seem to be set up properly like the madbul Compare these runs to Deane, Baggsy, etc. or his own in the MX5. There's a reason you don't see MR cars in FD
I love the Furai but terribly mad seeing they didn't fkn make it into production even though most people test drive it said it was a beautiful and incredible concept car. The struggle is real when it comes to that gentalman agreement crap in the automotive industry. Both toyota and Honda already had the formula and technology to manufacture the future hyper cars 20 years ago. Yet, we all had to watch Ferrari, lambo, Bugatti, porsche, Astin and so on with their posh name and pretend that they were ahead in super cars.
I’d like to thank Mike for building this car. I’m totally in love with it and completely obsessed with it. I can’t watch enough videos. I must seek counseling. After a few more of course.
This man made my dream build come true. I always want to build a mid engine rotary. I wish Rob Dahm would have done it, but his AWD 4 rotor is badass too.
I will always love the rotary I had a rx7 (12a standard) Then another rx7 (12a heavily street ported) Then same rx7 with a 13B turbo, with add ons Then a rx 8(with decat exhaust and better intake) And they were all equal in own way My rx 8 I had the longest, nearly 6 years. And the best car I ever had The sound after the exhaust change on the RX 8 was just amazing
You lost me at RX8 is the best car. RX8 had a ton of issues from day one to the last day. The way they did the porting from factory was garbage. Very well known across the board the RX8 will always go down as the worst Mazda ever. I've owned the 1st and 3rd Gen. Both peripheral ported. Rx8 is pure garbage!!!
When he did that flick to make a U-turn really gives off that "Really? Right in front of my vehicle" Vibe from those rich guys parked up by the side lol
Rotary engines have ALWAYS been reserved for those who WANT TO UNDERSTAND them! Excellent source of power. I had a rx3 back in the day. 13b Weber carbureted….miss that beast!
This is the best video on the internet of the MAd MAc hands down!👍👏👏 Shout out to your team! My favorite is the steam pouring through the nostrils. We might need some prints😁🙏
Mad Mike is me if I had the money. While a rotary annoys the hell out of me on an audible level I respect the swap dude. I’m working on a Barra swapped SHO as we speak and it’s a nightmare. I bought it in 2019 as a 2013 SHO with PP and it’s been in the shop now for a year cutting and shoving. Holds nothing to a rotary swapped P1, but certainly inspires me homie.
