Yes they do, and they can get their love from you and Frank. LOL

Reminds me of when Quagmire said "fat girls need love too, but they gotta pay" LOL!

Yeah but that's all it is, shit talk. Frank and I both know that he truly loves the rotary and wishes he could have one in his car but he just can't wrap his mind around it LOL!!

Interesting... it reminds me of that Spirograph stuffs. Are there only two "rotors" in each engine?

lol spirograph i remember those.

in a typical rx7 there are only 2, some of the eunos cosmos had 3 and the lemans 767 and 787b had 4.

better reference:

40a = 1 rotor
12a and 13b series = 2 rotors
20b = 3 rotors
26b = 4 rotors

In most cases you can also look at it like this...

1.3L = 13B (series)
2.0L = 20B
2.6L = 26B

Of course it depends on who you talk to as far as how many liters each engine is LOL. Some say since each rotor is like a full engine by itself, it's actually double the capacity. Actually I think I have that mixed up, but it's something like that. Usually the only people complaining are the people going against the rotary and want it banned from the race LOL.

they just dont want to admit that they got beat by a lawn mower. i mean cmon a 1.3L beating lets say a 7.0L (ls7). no one wants to admit that lol

also you can run low or no compression with a rotary. ive seen it happen. as long as you keep the boost up and have a big enough turbo its still beats a ls1 lmao

AND you can still drive with a blown engine LOL. When Simon's engine was blown, we were putting tranny fluid in there and push starting it, and as long as he kept the RPM high enough it would stay running. Stunk like shit, but it ran LOL.

I wanted to say that first part Ian, but I figured Frank might get upset. LOL!! Frank where are you?
