[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 25581, member: 126"] Re: Farewell faithful companion...... I must be getting old since I had to google this to see what a torsen was. :-) Still didn't see why it means too much power... Anyone who has ever spent time on a motorcycle appreciates that weight matters too. If I had more money and more time, and less maturity, I'd be tempted to do something very light with say a kit-cobra plastic skin on it. While odd, I bet something like a mazda wankel power plant would make some nice HP for the weight, who cares if burns a little oil? Can you turbo charge a wankel? Why not? Hook that up to a CV transmission so you can just leave it up at high RPM, and you have a little screamer. or not.... JR [/QUOTE]
