I wouldnt mind owning one, but I have been so turned off because of the people at the track with them. 50 of them pile into a small pickup, and put the rotary on a single axle snowmobile trailer (sometimes sideways on the trailer). They then get there, get the car prepped by reving the engine to 15,000 RPM usually for 30-40 mins straight. Then they get to the actual racing. Try a few times to do a burnout, finally get something they are happy with. There is always someone lining them up in the groove and the 48 other people are out there hooting and holering. Take forever to stage usually winding them up till they backfire 20-30 times before actually staging. Then they stage, bang them off a rev limiter, and make it to about the 60' mark. Then its back in the pits to diagnose the problem, obviousely by putting the engine at 15,000 RPM for another half hour.
To me it does NOT look like fun, but thats just me!
