That video was awesome! I can't believe that the engine survived so long. If he hadn't taken the radiator cap off, I wonder what would (or wouldn't) have happened.

THE ROTARY CAN NEVER DIE!

I wonder what they are going to do with the car now?

Hopefully he tries the same thing with his V8. You know, for a fair comparison. That, I would like to see.

There is a thread in the lounge about this now, where the fellow is posting what and why he did it.

All that happened is the motor over heated, plain and simple. Redlining it had nothing to do with it if he had better cooling.
