- Who doesn't love the sound of a rotary on two step?! This compilation contains clips I've filmed over the years but mainly at Hal Far Raceway as the rotary drag scene isn't as big over here in the UK.
Enjoy, more compilations coming soon!

7:45 - Look, they attached a rotary engine to that turbo.
Funny
3:57 i'ts a rotary broo,not a rocket😂🔥
Well, now I see why I can't find an RX7!!! Great post!
Considering you only have to go 88mph to travel time, these cars are actually finishing the race before we see it!
88+HH hmmm
I have some long standing rules ... never race a VW you haven't seen make a pass, and never ever race a rotary. Obviously.
Great to see u guys doing ur thing that dragster would been in around 6.7 to 6.5 just call the kings of rotary in my island 💪💪 great to see the love for rotary
Rest in peace for that last one😂
Melted er right down 😂
And he never turned left

Just came from a vid where KARTS were running engines about the same size as these and running 9's to 12's. THIS is more like it! It amazed me that many of the karts had nitrous and were running slower or about the same as the bikes they came off of, STOCK! WTH? Incredible that these cars run faster than funny cars from my early days, monster blown, fueled, hemi driven stuff. Some of them half way to the RAIL runs of that time. Incredible.
BRING BACK ROTARY ENGINES
you know they have to rebuild them every few runs?
@@majorva2653 not just for drag Racing, i mean in general cars as well
this guy brought back rotary engines
@@majorva2653 not for drift doe but idk about drag
@@majorva2653 the best compromise of rotary level power (relative to displacement) and durability is a crankcase aspirated 2stroke. Despite what many will tell you, a 2stroke can be force aspirated, through a turbo or supercharger. The key is in the gas reflection wave of the exhaust chamber. Not much experimentation has been done with force aspirated 2 strokes, and there might be a limit to how much pressure they can take, but the reflection wave is quite strong. For instance, the Honda NSR500 produced 180hp reliably with half a liter, for an entire Moto gp race. With a properly shaped exhaust port (with bridges and rounded edges) the piston rings have great longevity. Retained piston rings are being experimented with by several 2stoke builders (Mark Atkinson) this retained piston rings would further increase longevity. 2stokes may be impractical for most applications, but they excell in racing. The best part is that the cylinders gain volumetric efficiency with volume, so a 2 liter 4 cylinder engine would be more efficient than the average 250cc. There is a scene for 2stroke drag racing, but it's usually done in dirt, or snow.
Wooooohhhhhhhaaatatatatatatataaattatatattatatataa
Lovely
Every drag strip should have this feature lol. Shows the eighth mile time then the quarter mile. Simple but Brilliant. I guess it may be cuz it distracts the driver or sum but idk that the only downside I could think of.
Turboed Dude shows the 60ft too, it’s good for the crowd too as you can see if someone’s on a run or not
I’d imagine the software is there in most timing equipment but they just choose not to use it
The doritos power
6.8 197mph wow the rx7 silver killed it
Gavin is this a 1/4mi track? Sorry for imperial.
@@2A_Tree_Hugger yes
Yeah that’s Europe’s fastest rotary, the car was imported from Puerto Rico I believe
Aussies and Puerto Ricans the best mazda builders 🏁
Ramon A. Pagan Kercado australia shits on uk
Luke Day Theres not many rotaries in the UK, most these clips are from Malta. Id love to get out to Australia one day and film some stuff 😎
British? You meant Aussies Ramon!!
An honest question- do ppl NOT know how to do burnouts & stage their cars? Back in the day nobody was allowed on the track for safety reasons, & drivers did everything themselves. Now we have to have a group of ppl nosing around & telling them how to burnout & stage. Do ppl just want to be on the track looking important, or is it really needed?
I always knew how to stage at the tree without help
Smitty's channel someone answer this we need to know
Yes it’s necessary, you need somebody to guide you back after you do your burnout etc..aswell as over here in australia you can go to a workshop and get a 7,8,9 sec package and that also comes with them coming to the track with you to teach you everything you need to know about drag racing your car
I hate when they tell them to stop burning out and stage. The tires are clearly barely heated up smh
Alex Chulzhanov too many people didn’t pay attention in science class, they don’t understand these slicks are only filled to 6-9psi cold usually and heat up to 14-15psi easily after the burnout. Everyone wants to act like a internet scientist but they don’t even say anything to back up their comment it’s like they want to talk shit like it’s a game.
Most of the ones I saw that were running the faster cars were doing burnouts pretty much like I remember funny and rail classes doing them back in the day...so ...? I suspect on cars running 11s and 12s it is not as critical, maybe.
brap brap brap
YEEEEEET
Yeet indeed
Isn't there an Instagram account for the second rx7 that appeared at the beginning of the video?
Some people's just know how to live normally and enjoy everyday of their lives despite how hard it is👍
Good video. They sound a lot like my bike making a pass...
Thank you!
The green r34 gtr 7.2 quarter 😍😍😍😍
The brap is strong here
Would love to go to Hal-far,they have some really bonkers cars there.
Rotary engines don't have torque...says the guy who pulled a 60+ft wheelie.
Don't call these cars "bonkers"!!!!😡
@@ricktaylor3748 touchy aren't we🤔🤔🤔,obviously bonkers has a different meaning to you.
@@wattyler6075
If you ever say "that" again, it's curtains for you !!!💀🤬Keep it shut !!!
@@ricktaylor3748 what you going to do,get me barred?
Nice
Is there any old mazdas over there, r100's, rx2's or rx3's?
In Australia they race with old rotaries, there you can see some more variety
One question, how many rpm does this go?
Wow, I did not know a rotary was so fast 😂
that one drag strip could've been built on flatter ground lol
How long is the track? 1/8th or 1/4 mile? Looks like 1000ft.
1/4 mile
@@mk1kieran
Thanks! Some of those things are pretty damn fast!!
Mantap
How much distance
All 1/4 mile
It's like a swarm of melon sized wasp's flying in shooting AK 47s.
Awesome cars they have there . But does any of them know green means go. Crappy rt times
Why are they so popular in Malta?
Twistedkrank I don’t actually know the answer to that one 😂
50/50 weight. Dist.
They hook up real good.
Twistedkrank and they are light
What happened to the very last car...i guess he blew the rotary..
I think there was some damage but I’m not sure if it was that serious as it was back out again after, unless they had a spare engine 🤷🏻♂️
Pretty sure he blew the Apex-Seals...
@@frankotto83 or the Turbo... Pumping oil into the engine
He blew up a water line
10:51 it's just me or the lights kinda delayed?
It does look a bit slower than normal, not sure what that’s about 😅
I miss these days 😢
The last one blew their engine. F in the chat.
No they didn’t most likely a radiator hose exploded from the amount of pressure the hose is pushing
@@thatcornfedrx8guy372 Bruh that comment was 2 years ago. Even i don't remember watching the vid.
I so miss my RX-8 why did i sell you😭😭😭😢im an idiot
a shown this to a person he thinks he can smoke a rotary
Angry Doritos
Good luck
Track isn’t long enough!! Having u be on brake hard after finish
Que carajos 4:05
Yeah rip
Never understand why anyone would turn an FD into a drag car.
Because they can
@@zerotwo6409 exactly
You fuckin think any RX7 should only be drifted NO an FC3S in an illegal street racing which is Mid Night Club is in that club
I would choose another chassis also. The fd is such a great balanced car. They are a weapon on roadcourses. I beleive they use them because they are light and the wheel base is longer than the first gen rx7.
Well the engine is great for this, and instead of just taking the engine out of the car they just build the whole thing…
i'am from indonesia
nissan gtr r34 green nice car. i like it
Sponsored by doritos 😋
Why are people clapping? Lol
John Hyde PBs & Records, The Silver RX7 running 6s was the first 6 second pass from a rotary in Europe.
So much for there not being a replacement for displacement.
I suddenly have a craving for samosas.
A dragster with a fart can???
who woulda thunk these shit boxes would go almost 200 mph--of course these are Brits so their tree is prolly in KPH, not MPH!!!!
It’s MPH, Most of the clips are filmed in Malta who also use MPH like us Brits 😎👍🏻
@@mk1kieran lol. Gotcha. Ty. Lol
@@mk1kieran bro I subscribed to you please return the favor. I have hundreds of videos amd thousands of hours. Ty in advance. Content creation ee's stors need to stick together. I'm American but a Mills of an English father. So we r practically cousins! Lol 😎
Egh still don’t see why ppl like them but to each their own
U don't have to like them it's true but u have to acknowledge and respect that a rotary put 8 cilynders in trailers in a heart beat when u have seen a 1.5 liters doing 6 ?
Yeah you can make it run a 6 but to me the trouble you go through to make it do that, what you spend, and the reliability/longevity of the motor is what impresses me it’s not just about performance rotary is not it for me I didn’t say it was slow lol
@@squirlesg2228 tell me when you build a drag car of any kind
