In a whirlwind trip to Dallas for Seven's Day, the throtl team immerses themselves in the vibrant rotary community, contemplating a daring shift from their beloved FDs to the classic FC for a new drift project. Enthralled by the roaring Formula Mazda car and a unique 2002 rotary build sporting a carburetor setup, they delve into the diverse world of rotary setups, from ITBs to unconventional engine placements, sparking their creative gears. The visit to 144 Print House and Ray Studio, under the helm of Nate Hamilton, reveals a racing studio teeming with high-octane energy, showcasing impressive builds like a 3.4L stroker engine and a souped-up GR86, igniting their passion for pushing boundaries.
Engines become the heart of the conversation as they dissect the intricacies of different setups, from dry sump systems to power outputs, relishing the freedom that robust engine support offers for unleashing raw power on the track. Tristan's meticulously crafted FC RX7, with its peripheral port 13B engine, and Mark's fire-breathing 500 horsepower 13B Rew engine in his FC RX7, stand out as testaments to the artistry and performance potential of rotary builds. The team's admiration for the simplicity and character of these machines is palpable, fueling their desire to embark on their own FC drift car project, drawing inspiration from the ingenuity and creativity witnessed during their Texan escapade.
As they wrap up their Texas adventure, the throtl crew is brimming with ideas and enthusiasm to dive headfirst into the realm of FC builds, eager to share their journey with the audience and seek feedback on their bold new direction. The allure of crafting a unique FC drift car, infused with their signature style and innovative touches, promises an exhilarating new chapter in their automotive escapades. With the echoes of roaring engines and the scent of burning rubber still fresh in their minds, the team heads back to San Diego, ready to unleash their creative vision and passion for rotary excellence in their upcoming project.
