So I was working turn 8 at the Knox Mountain Hill Climb, and what comes flying by but an FB RX-7 with a superbird-style wing and GRM stickers! Round of applause for whoever ran that, it sounded great (although not as ear-piercing as (but probably more legal than) the green one).

-5 for not getting paddock shots.
slowly crosses an item off of the Idea List
Hopefully somebody cops to this and brings pictures, because I feel like I need to see this.
Ok I googled, found a video with this car in the background I think. Was it black?
roughly 11 seconds in.
I found video footage of it.

That aint no rotary i ever heard.
Nice looking Omni GLH in the opening few frames.
In reply to mndsm:
Yeah, it distinctly lacks the "thousand angry bees" sound of an uncorked rotary.

I watched your link and thought, that's a cool ass RX7, then the next car was a Red S2000 with a hardtop and what looked like some rear flares and it looked AMAZING, similar to an NC from the B pillars back, and I was thinking as much trouble as Ive seen from the S2000s Id happily drive that beautiful car everyday, then it was over and the next shot was the rear of an RX7 with a weird exhaust and wide ass CCW Classics, and I thought E36 M3 I LOVE that car.
Then I turned it off because I'm trying to get caught up on my binge watching of black sails.
I'm just saying I don't watch hill climb and I could care less about the racing but Ive liked literally 100 percent of hill climb cars Ive seen, and one day when I don't have so much important business to attend to Ill definitely be watching more.
