OK, for my 6000th post, I will honor Richard Paul. I have waited till the Sun has risen and shined for many a day now, in anticipation of the Worlds first Axial Flow Supercharged Rotary Engine to make it to the general public. I will wait until next year, and then it is either this or a turbo.

So, make my day RP

Why is it getting dark in here?

Oh, it's because the window of opportunity is closing.

Why is the window closing? If you're assuming there's a finite supply of people wanting to go FI and that supply is drying up going with the other options, then perhaps.

But I don't think (don't hope, at any rate) that Richard set a deadline for completion and it's approaching?

Exactly! I don't even have the stinking car yet. Which is really sad when you look at when I joined up...

But there's hope on the very near horizon!

It had a kid at an inopportune time and found itself broke.

On the bright side, two jobs are now pumping money into reserves and a new car is on the horizon. The missus is down with the 8 but really has her eye on the upcoming Mini Clubman. Next year should be interesting...

*But enough about me, back to the AFSC!*

He may just be sick of people asking for updates when he clearly has said the product is pretty much finished he is just waiting for the AccessPort to ship.

RX-8 Club:
Dammit! This always happens! We think we're gonna score parts,
and then we never score! It's not fair! We've been waiting um, a
mil-... a hundred years, just because we thought we were
gonna score! But now it's not gonna happen! Dammit!

Richard:
Hey, buddy! Sit down!

RX-8 Club:
Shut up, ***-wipe! We're sick and tired of this! We're
never gonna score parts! We're probably gonna get old
like those honda people, but they've probably scored!

Richard:
Hey! I'm warning you! Sit down!

RX-8 Club:
It's like subaru's are *****... and look at the evo!
It's not old, but they've probably scored parts a million times...!
But not us!
We're never gonna score!
We're never gonna score!
We're never gonna score!

Here is the problem with the AFSC :

...we will never make our money back on Rx8 kits there has just been too much time invested in this one car. We should have started with another car first. But we didn't so be it. Hopefully down the road there will be another car we can use this blower on.
