The year is 1991. Mazda wins the 24 hours of Le Mans and the FIA bans the Wankel rotary engine. This marked the first and only Le Mans 24 victory by a Japanese race car, and the Mazda 787B will never participate in an international race again.
Riding on a high, Mazda believed it was still their time in prototype racing. Conveniently for them, IMSA did not ban rotaries... and the successor to the 787B was created.
Behold, bitches:

The RX-792P never wins a race. Mazda pulls out of racing by 1993.
But it wins in my book. That shape is damn sexy. And she's a screamer too.
