Crazy 1,200-HP Mazda3 With Rotary Engine And RWD To Tackle Next Year's Pikes Peak Hill Climb | Carscoops carscoops
Bentley’s 850 HP Pikes Peak Continental GT3 Vs. A 600 HP Honda Civic Type R Seems Like An Unfair Fight
The engine in question he plans on using is a four-rotor Wankel rotary engine, which will supposedly be knocking on the door of 1,200 hp , even with the significantly lower air pressure found at Pikes Peak’s high altitude. Additionally, as mentioned before, the car will be rear-wheel drive instead of the usual front-wheel drive or, though it wouldn’t surprise us if Widdett used a modified version of that all-wheel drive setup for the conversion.
In the aero department, the car shown in the renderings on Widdett’s Instagram will feature a large chin splitter, a chassis-mounted wing, two rear hatch spoilers , side skirts, and a sizeable rear diffuser. It will also seemingly sport new wheels and tires, lowered suspension, and a hood-exit exhaust in addition to a bold white-and-blue Red Bull livery. And as teased by the caption of the Instagram post, the
will still have four seats and four doors despite the hill climb’s rules not allowing any passengers or co-drivers in the vehicle.
