Zero 2

The Mazda 787B is the first and only Japanese car, and rotary-engine car, to win the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Jointly developed by Mazda and Mazdaspeed, the organization that managed Mazda’s racing program, the 787B has a chassis designed to meet Group C racing car technical regulations and is powered by a four-rotor rotary engine that produces 700 horsepower. Due to a change in the race regulations, 1991 was to become the last year that a rotary-engine car could participate in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

In 1998, Suzuki produced the Escudo Dirt Trial for Pikes Peak International Hill Climb event with two 2.5L Twin Turbo V6 engines (One on each front and back) controlling all four wheels with the output of 981 BHP (974 HP) (9000 rpm), making the vehicle able to reach up to speeds of 206 mph (336 km/h), driven by Nobuhiro ‘Monster’ Tajima.
