Download the DivX player.

Heh, so that's what a single rotor sounds like.

In a nutshell, it's a codec that plays avi files better than the Windows Media Player.

That thing sounds worse than my RX7 did when it had a gutted cat. But hey, I can't argue with how awesome that thing is. Not intolerably slow, either.

Nice car... I bet they are really rare in the USA, aren't they? Overhere they are already extremely rare, so many of you guys probable never saw one in real life. I can say it's a great little car, but very small. I always wonder how people fit in.
A single rotor engine does sound a bit strange, like it's some sort of turbine.
BTW, that NSU TT there doesn't look bad either, but since it's piston engined, who cares about that one

At times, it sorta sounded like a 12A that was running on only one rotor, but then it would miss a little. Interesting sound none the less. I want to do a single rotor project and add a late leading ignition system to it to see (hear) how the sound changes. I may even do a half bridgey.

It sounded like a 250cc shifter kart at idle or a snow mobile or something. Heh. That is a neat little car, and the back fire a few seconds after shut down cracked me up.

I wonder how many times he had some young punk jump on his exhaust because it sticks out, like, a foot...

Well, that was a couple days ago. At that time I tried downloading it 3 times and kept getting about 4k and it would kick me off after about 10 minutes. The next day it worked great.

That vid was awesome! My REPU did that backfiring after shutdown until I put a better exhaust on it. Before the exhaust would build up fuel vapor and a few seconds after shutdown it would all ignite. The Magnaflow doesnt do that.
