RX/Rotary engine Documentary

Does anyone know of any documentaries (like history channel/speed Channel etc) on the RX-7/8 or the rotary engine, and where to snag or watch them from? I checked out the pirate bay and didn't come up with anything.

Thanks peoples!

wikipedia has a fair bit of reading material. It's your best bet for anything with substance

I would love to see the same thing. I have a book that discusses in great detail about the engine/company back when it was first created *The name Mazda came from a box of headlights...called "Mazda Lights". Pretty good read for 15 bucks.
