I am no expert but I can say that Turbo Rotaries are a different monster. You cannot let the fire go out sort of speak. He most likely has a huge turbo on that thing and he needs to get back on the gas early to spool it up. Therefore it may come online too early and he will have to back off of it. Also, because those cars are a perfect 50% F-R balance he can use the throttle a lot to get it where it needs to go.
There were comments on the RX7 forums his turn in looked wrong, but it seems they were fighting with under steer all weekend so he was adapting his style to make the car respond.
The owner said they left a few seconds on course due to some mechanical glitches and the under steer issues, they felt they could have taken out the HKS Evo and they were an independent team not a factory one like HKS.
