@@Raptorlifts I dont think any TH-camr will top Robs 4 Rotor tbh. Yes some people have cars that are just as crazy like Tavarish P1 and this. But What sets Rob apart is that he's an ordinary man like me and you that Put the time in to Learn every possible thing he would need and build that car from the ground up with HIS OWN HANDS to the same level of big budget Race teams. Crazy.
Beautiful car! Your going have alot air turbulence with the fender vents and the rear mirrors being so close to each other, you will not have clean air through there. 3d scan it and run it through CFD and you will see thats a problem (hot spot). The fender vents can be done at less angle and partially internal like half in half protruding also you can raise mirrors or move them, it will clean it up alot. That mirror placement will be important, with CFD you can play with it for a good sweet spot for clean airflow. You can see with most prototypes they move mirror behind front fender vents out of the way of that high pressure area.
I thought of a five-rotor several years ago, and I love that I'm living in a time where I get to actually see and hear one come to life. Mikey might've revved it on camera first, but you could still be the first to run it through the gears like a PROPER race car should be.
I feel like I can’t be the first one to suggest this, or maybe it’s already happened, but you and Rob Dahm should do a collaboration. Both of you guys have an outspoken love for rotary motors, and it never hurts to get two brilliant minds together.
It's hard for David Mazzei to *not* be my favorite human. I didn't think the Formula RX-7 could be topped - it was my favorite build to follow. But holy damnation was I wrong.
Love the video and explanation... To the guy filming it (I assume his name is Thomas) When he speaks about the things it's always good to record how you did, except it looked like you were afraid of using the joystick to move the camera up and down, for example he is talking about the front ventilation/duck on the front wheel and you're basically showing us the front light, instead going lil higher with the camera and tilt down to show the duct. It's also a good idea to do B rolls, so when he was talking about the vent you could afterwards make B-Roll shots of parts he was talking about and add it to the video. Just some feedback as it looks that you will have a bright future ahead filming cool shit :D Edit: Also I don't know what camera you use but you can delay the auto focus, at least I can do it on my Alpha 7 IV, so it doesn't constantly zoom in and out like crazy
You captured the essence of 90's Le Mann's style cars and F1 with this project. Truly incredible from both an engineering/design standpoint and a primal rawness that you just don't get out of all these whizz bang fancy electronic computers they call cars now. You deserve every pat on the back you can get.
This is an awesome example of hard work paying off and trusting the process! You deserve every smile this amazing project will bring you in the coming years! Can’t say just how proud we are of you! Will definitely be along for the adventure!
I just enjoy seeing your passion for this stuff brother. You are very down to the detail and the way you explained everything was highly knowledgeable and informative. Awesome video, I am 35 years old too and its nice to watch your videos and actually understand and relate to what youre saying. Good stuff my dude
Been following you for a fair while now man. Loving this build so much and even more so, your attitude to everything. The right outlook on things and appreciations - which are missing from most people these days!
Dave well done bro. This is a work of art. I know mad mike got to reveal his 5 rotar first...... But it isn't a mid mounted super car with a massive turbo like this. He's sponsored by Redbull and making packets more money and has full team of mechanics and technicians dedicated to work on his stuff..... They aren't specialists that are working on many other projects that are putting their skills and time aside to work on your car..... Like in your case; they are not working on anything else other than Mike's stuff. This what you are doing here is on another level. Everything about this build has come from you bro. You understand each and every component and how expected to work and what development and changes need to happen to meet your own expectations. The mind inside the head of David deserves applause bro 👏 well done with all you efforts.
Congratulations on an amazing piece of art truly incredible what you have achieved. By far the best build ever and look forward to seeing you driving your creation and to hear that 5 rotor. You rock!!!
Amazing and awesome for all us Rotary previous owners from the 80s and 90s good to see the progress on 3 plus 4 and so on rotors 20 and 26b can wait to see it on the race track! Congratulations
I always appreciate your professional approach. You aren't here for clout or money or fame. There's no nonsense, no click bate and no stupid fake persona for views like literally everyone else out there. You just lay it out there... These passion projects keep the car community alive. Thank you for sharing your work with us!
For some reason, this video especially makes me think of Jason Statham in the mechanic the way Dave is walking around so casually dressed, talking about Vehicles he understands like no one else
What a work of art man I remember watching your videos of your fd thinking how cool and now looking at this is awesome truly an inspiration I have a 85 rx7 and hope to start gutting the car this summer
Been waiting for years for this to come to reality, been following since the 4 rotor rx7 that was a dream car build and now this is on another level. The rx7 look/build is still my style but this build does not get my hard on down to a chub in any way whatsoever, its still raging over this build lol
Incredible build! I literally thought of this build a few days ago and didnt see anything. First thing opening youtube and this is what im met with! congrats and looking forward to seeing what this thing can do!
I've loved watching your videos ever since I saw the Formula 7 at the Hoonigan Burnyard, and I am SUPER stoked to see this working, moving piece of art in the future! Congratulations!!
I've been keeping an eye on your channel since that sick 3 rotor FD you built back in the day. Both yours and Rob Dahm's videos made me fall in love with rotaries. After that, the 4 rotor build happened and resulted in one of the sexiest FDs I've ever seen. And now this. Built pretty much from scratch... you're a freakin legend. Can't wait to hear this thing scream. oh, and WORLD'S FIRST TURBOCHARGED 5 ROTOR LET'S GOOOOOOOOO
Would love more videos about this build! Too bad your not in Canada, I'd be happy to help out on the weekends 😊 Hope all is well David, looking forward to hearing this beast scream! 🎶😎
Love this build. The concept and fab work is 💯. Been following it from day 1 here and on the SLC forum. Amazing how quickly it got done. Looking forward to more vids.
Please come show this thing off in Colorado. We have a huge car show every month with Adam's Polish in Denver. This thing would be amazing to show off and see!
Amazing work! I just don’t really understand the filming location 😅 wouldn’t a better illuminated room be much better? And totally worth it for this build!
we can see how happy you are about your car. The smile in your face speaks for itself. Nice work with your cars
I been waiting for this upload for years since you sold your last RX7 and bought this shell. This is the best car on TH-cam hands down

Mad mikes 5 rotor?
this car deserves a better video but i'm so excited to watch this build
absolutely proper build, he must be the most proudest man on earth
I’ve never been so sad about camera/cinematography. Can’t wait for it to be in a video where I can see It in proper lighting
I was saying turn on the darn shop lights!
Yeah man this is terrible having to be recorded inside a garage. Push it outside in the sun and let’s see it in sunlight
Amazing. I remember seeing your rx-7 years ago when I was first getting into it. This race car is truly incredible.
Literally a piece of art. Congratulations. It is really an inspiration.
Absolutely incredible! You shot the whole thing in one take too that's a level of passion few people have.

Bro managed to talk about the wheels for 3 minutes and the camera guy never actual showed the wheels once. Thats impressive camera work.
He showed the wheels a couple times, pause it and zoom you can see them well
Lmao, me when editing real estate videos and the client talks about something different
Camera person was pretty bad not gonna lie
lolll real estate vides hahahaha

I hope this car ends up in Forza or Gran Turismo, absolute attention to detail.
David I’m so happy for you man. You are a visionary and this car was a legend before it was born.
Hats off to you 🙌.
You sir are probably about to become a manufacturer
