If you missed this marvels show you didn't miss much, in the few minutes they spent on the rotary they show a pix of the rx-evolve and call it an rx-8, the point they make is that the wankel is the only engine in the world that doesn't have pistons! can you say dumbed down.

Ya nothing about NSU who had a Rotary first, although they do show a picture of one. What about Chevy's venture with Rotaries.

They need to do a SHOW on the WANKEL

Hmm what's their website...

saw it, taped it, pimp, Very informantive. Nothing i didn't know about the rotary though. I did like to see the 13B in there and like how they decided to put it in there, and the Rx-8 was pimp, cool under the hood, i like the idea of the straight shot ram air intake! They did make the point about how the rotary engine has no vibration, unlike the piston that has to go up and down creating alot. I hope the Renesis blows up here in US. But next week im going to reginals for my history day project, entitled Engine Revolution, so it will be very very helpful. Thxs Phin.
