Go to http://www.howstuffworks.com/rotary-engine.htm It's the best site for finding out about well stuff.
Edit: It's basically a triangle that kinda rotates and shifts in side an oval shaped area. It exposes the intake valve, than compresses, then sparks, then exposes the exaust valve. The crank is connected to the center of the triangle. It is very efficient and has only a couple moving parts since the valves don't need to be opened then closed, the triangle just exposes openings. It makes a lot of sense since it creates circular motion and that's what you want to drive a crank. Unlike the regular piston type engines that use the crank to convert the up and down motion of the pistons into the circular motion to drive the the drive train.Last edited by obsolete898; 03-19-2002, 05:01 PM.Comment

And all the FATF lovers out there that don't know alot need to look up "Nitrous Oxide" on that same site.
I hated how everyone saw that movie and was like NOS this and NOS that. And wow that stuff must be really flammible to blow that car up.Comment

N2O doesn't really blow up like that.... At least not THAT much with one tank...
AND DON'T CALL NITROUS NOS!!!

Yea it's not volitile at all. It's the same as oxygen, it's an excelerant. It also needs to hit over 500 degrees to actually split and excelerate a fire.Comment

Well, right now my wife and I share a 2k1 Chevy Tracker ZR2 (V6, 4WD) It's a nice ride. Not so good on the gas mileage though.
MY DREAM CAR: 1998 R33 Nissan Skyline. I spent the last five years in Japan and I've really earned an appreciation for this car. Oh, BTW, I've gotten to drive a '96 R33--all I have to say is..."SWWWWWWEEEEEETTTTTT HAY-SUESS!"
