The internet has always led me to believe that driving a bridge or P ported rotary on the street was a absolute bitch, but is it really?

They drive ok. Its just the noise that gets old from a "gettin hassled by the plods" kinda way. Been in PP RX2 and it cruises ok. ( drinks gas like a fish)

It's VERY hard to quiet them down, but theyre fun cars for sure. Nothing to say they won't be streetable. It come's down to how it was built.
