There was another one, where they were going to tear it down and build it so before that they drained all oil, all coolant.

Put a brick on the gas, thing went for almost 22 minutes before overheating. Same thing though the entire exhaust was burning, even worst though cause it was by his house near a pile of leaves.

Goo rotarys!!!

OK, i don't know where you download this Videos, but please tell me, i have Gb&GB of Videos of cars & Moto and only 2 of these stupid people that want to blow up the Wankel...
I'd like to see them because, even if they are alla scame people, they are some how interesting to understand how much the Wankel can resist and what happens before he dies...
In any case, any time that i see one of those Videos, i cry

Interesting...first, the post says 15000 RPM at 6 minutes...apparently these guys dont know that tach readings DONT stack. So there's your first clue to the potential label of idiot before they even start revving. Then when the bumper catches fire, they tell someone to get a stick?? *shakes head and walks away*

Should put him in a spin dryer and spin it for 5 minutes at 9000 rpms and see what happens! Report him to the RX cruelty foundation!

Can a contemporary piston engine survive that long at redline? An honest question

Honestly... NO!
Not even an Italian engine, which are the one that they revs up better of the Pistons, can survive for that long.
But i have to tell you, i had a coupple of Italian Cars and, i was used to stretsh the engine pretty good, with the two Fiat Punto 1.2l 4 cilinder i use to go up to 60mph in 2nd gear and at 150 in 3rd always with the engine up tu 7500rpm, and never had a problem.
With the other one that i had, which was a Fiat Bravo, i use to go up to 70mph in secon gear with the engine at 8000rpm, and it was a 2.0l with 5 cilinder... that car was incredible, never had anything faster than that, but it was drinking too much gas for the gas prices in that we have in Italy, so i had to sell it after less that a month.
That's all, those are the engines with pistons that the give you a good torque even at those rpm, but not even a Ferrari car resist at 9000rpm for more than 1 minutes, but, if you are running, it is another story
