Engine Pings at High RPM's

When I'm driving, no matter what gear. Only tried 1st-3rd gear at around 7 grand the engine makes a pinging noise. Im new to the rotary engine world but it sounds like pre-denotation but since the cars has no cams or values I'm not sure how that works. I'm taking it to the dealership on Friday, but I know they are going to say something stupid like its suppose to make this noise.

Thanks,
Matt

Interesting read. I've never seen that thread before. I can honestly say that I learned a few new things today.
