Two Birds With One Rotor!
I was hanging out with some friends at a McDonalds by my house when some idiot in a V6 firebird drives passed revving his engine at us. He's got some 14" gold spoke rims sticking out of the wheel wells about 3 inches. The whole deal. Anyways, he walks up with the five other people in his car and starts talking crap about my car. His buddies are laughing because he obviously has a super fast car and can beat anybody. I've never seen the car in my life before, or the guy so i don't know why he is saying stuff about me. "Whatever dude let's race then so you can kick my *** and tell your friends that your big bad car beat the almighty 1st gen rx-7." We go to a spot that i know to be a quater mile and line up.
1st race goes like this:
wait for our light to turn red,
he revs up like a million times while we wait.
we pull up to the light when it turns yellow
he does a cute little burnout
light going other way turns red we both rev getting ready to go
light turns green we both take off
i got the best launch i have ever gotten in my life
i instantly pull like 2 cars on him
shift second, pull another 1.5
shift third and shut down with about 4 - 4.5 cars on him
he flies past me after the finish line with his hazards on
we talk and i explain to him that when i crossed the finish line first, that means the race is over and i win. he says that i cheated, so i have to pop my hood and explain to him that i have a 1.2 liter straight seven, he believes me
2nd race same as first only he says he spun through third on an auto tranny.
"dude you lost just stop making excuses for your slower car"
he gets mad and says he's got something for me and calls his buddy up. his friend shows up with a SOHC talon with a fart can and and GTR stickers on it.
we go and i win by like 8 cars, he says that he'll run me for slips. I tell him that he watches F&F way to much and that if he wants to race ( "accidently" said RICE instead of race but only my friend caught it) for money and he agreed so i collected $30 and bought my friends and i some taco bell and went back to McDonalds. I never saw those guys again.

its not ignorant its just that the wankel isnt a well know motor. It was and is produced in very few cars. And its not a mainstream engine like the ls1 or 302. I personally love explaing the engine to ppl ,b/c they always seem very intrested

Alot of people say it as an insult, when really it's not. I love explaining it to people too, for the same reason.
