No that's all I found, I think it may have only just been built.
The company is based in Aus & NZ.
This thing is a 6 rotor rotary, I think it's pretty much unique!
Quite a pick-up when he blips the throttle eh!

The thing with a lot of rotary engines is they are more or less made to just bolt end to end so you can create an engine with as many "cylinders" as you want.

At least that is what a guy with a rotary six cylinder powered kit car told me once.

Yeah. I remember wondering why no-one ever bolted like 16 in a row and put them in a dragster chassis.
The are very high revving engines with teriffic throttle response.

Just a stupid name that sounds rude. :lol:

Especially as they have a great power to weight ratio and produce a lot of power from quite a low cc.
