Thumbs up AMAZING: 4 Rotor Wankel RX-7

HI AVERYBODY

This is an amazing Video, is the first one that i found with the 4 Rotor Wankel.
Mounted on an RX-7 it was blowing out 500hp:

" http://videos.streetfire.net/hottest...3D584C8FE5.htm "

It sounds almost like a Formula 1... i would love to put an engine like that on Roxy...

BEST REGARDS

I sorta want to make one.... and put it in my 8!

But then again.... why stop at 4. If a 4 rotor sounds that good, I cant even imagine a 6 rotor.

Imagine the fuel economy and emissions of that car

But I agree - it's simply awesome how it sounds and most importantly, how it accelerates - reminds me of the hyperdrive kicking in on the Millenium Falcon
