@@luizvillanova333 “dont sh!t sherlock?” Okay, first of all, I think you were going for “No sh!t Sherlock” (but God forbid you give what you write a read through), but more importantly, it was you who wrote, “Brought the bimmer back to its glory, it has a inline six engine.” Want a screenshot? Have fun pulling your foot out of your mouth dipsh!t!😐 Or is it that you don’t know the difference between a piston engine & a rotary?🤔Oh, the reason I don’t actually use the foul language is because kids like you might be reading.

@@luizvillanova333 To be honest, I get what you meant (i.e. as opposed to a V engine it now has an "inline" arrangement of rotors) but A. The joke isn't funny enough to bother posting and B. It just comes off as confusing and, I'm definitely not the only one who read it and thought 😐 while you were like 😃 after tapping send.

Whens this beast comming back out ?

[@wes.9353]

Wouldn't you be limited by the M6 Prime Pump? I love this build, but unless M6 pumps are absolute beefcakes that seems odd. Curious to see what kind of power it'll actually put down, I know it's got 500+ N/A.

[@shaggings]

1000hp easily if a 4 rotor can push 800+ na.

[@gkscoob1507]

Yeah I’d say probably 7/800 being a 6na

Blue smoke is not really good tho

[@SnowFoxMediatt]

It's called premix

Why it's smokes ??

[@anyau]

premix, 2 stroke oil in the fuel system. common practice for most rotary owners

[@mpower_gpower]

@@anyau I know the reason of Blue smoke , and of course I read it , but I know this car since they started the build , and at Dyno test it didn't smoke , but now smokes , that yeah as you said Rotar engines are the same , but considering spending 90k and this is all you get ,
